How Does ‘Beauty And The Beast’ Star Emma Watson Spend Her Break From Filming And Campaigning For Gender Equality? In A Museum Of Course!

"Beauty And The Beast" star Emma Watson has been making her name known this year and only half of the it is done.

After graduating with a degree in English Literature from Brown University last year, the 25-year-old movie star dove right into making films. She will be appearing in the thriller "Regression" with Ethan Hawke and David Thewlis which will be released later this year, as well as "Colonia".

She didn't focus on just her acting career either. She was appointed as an Ambassador for Women by the U.N. and launched the HeForShe campaign, which called men and boys to defend women and girls from violence.

She's also currently in production for Disney's live action adaptation for "Beauty And The Beast" where she will play the female lead, Belle.

With all these activities lined-up for the British beauty, it seems impossible for her to take a break. Thankfully, she was able to have a day to relax with her friends earlier this week.

The Daily Mail spotted the "Harry Potter" star with a few of her friends in Scotland in early June. And her idea of a good time? Visiting the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art in Edinburgh.

Hermione Granger would have been so proud of the "Beauty And The Beast" star Emma Watson, who seemed to have enjoyed her museum excursion with her pals.

"Emma dressed down for her arty day out, and seemed keen to keep cosy in the chillier Scottish weather as she layered a huge winter coat over a striped top and black cardigan," The Daily Mail reported, adding that she donned Barbour willies "as it looked like the group were planning on a walk after their gallery excursion."

Meanwhile, Watson's co-star Josh Gad, who will be playing Gaston's bumbling sidekick, Le Fou, previously teased avid Disney fans of the movie's progress.

"Yesterday, I walked onto a ballroom out of my childhood & saw Belle waltz w/a Beast. Get ready for magic people #BatB," he tweeted in late May.

He also uploaded the first photo of the "Beauty And The Beast" cast including Emma Watson, Dan Stevens (Beast), Luke Evans (Gaston) and Kevin Kline (Maurice).
