If only she had something to make Professor Trelawney's Divination more interesting. (Warner Bros. Pictures)

THE LAST SPELL: “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 2” closes out a decade of Hogwarts in Hollywood. Hero Complex is counting down to the release of the final film in the magical franchise with exclusive interviews and photos. Today: We travel through Hogwarts history and take a look at Emma Watson‘s Hermione Granger through the years.

Hermione Granger might have been a know-it-all with an untamed mane of frizzy hair before she received an owl inviting her to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but the shrewd witch always had the makings of a leading lady. No one would want to be on the receiving end of one of her hexes.

Whether it’s properly pronouncing “Wingardium Leviosa,” guiding first years through the Hogwarts halls as a prefect or spellbinding an impressive survival kit into her beaded purse, the daughter of muggle dentists became a friend and leader who exemplified Godric Gryffindor’s name.

Over the past 10 years, Emma Watson proudly played the bookworm whose affinity for the school library helped her scheme and save best friends Harry Potter and Ron Weasley time and time again. And, to think, their friendship started because of a run-in with a troll in the ladies room.

Here’s a look at Watson as Hermione Granger during her seven years at Hogwarts. For a real-life simulation of the Marauder’s Map, turn on the captions to get oriented.
