Word is that Harry Potter franchise babe Emma Watson is set to teem up with The Virgin Suicides filmmaker Sofia Coppola for The Bling Ring.

According to The Hollywood Reporter Watson will be one of the main stars in the ensemble film that is based on the true story of a group of mostly teenagers from California who burgled the homes of several celebrities in 2008 and 2009, most notably that of Paris Hilton.

Filming is set to begin in the spring in Los Angeles and Coppola said "I'm excited about the young cast we're assembling and I'm looking forward to shooting on location here in Los Angeles."

Coppola will produce the film alongside Roman Coppola and Youree Henley, meanwhile Watson who was last seen as Lucy in My Week with Marilyn will portray Sam alongside Logan Lerman in Stephen Chbosky's The Perks of Being a Wallflower which will be out later this year.

She is also rumoured to to reunite with Harry Potter director David Yates for Your Voice in My Head.
