One Day actress Anne Hathway has revealed she expected fans to be disappointed with her performance in the film adaptation of David Nicholls' novel.
The actress, who portrayed the Yorkshire-born Emma in the film, revealed she signed on to the film knowing full well she was not going to please fans with her performance.
During an interview with Bang Showbiz she said: "I didn't realise how deeply loved the character was when I signed on to play Emma. I wish I didn't really know!"
"It became even larger when people kept asking me, 'So you're playing Emma? Will you be doing this with the character? Will you be doing that?' I'm like, 'Oh my gosh, people know every word of this book!'"
According to Muveez, she continued: "I quickly realised I was going to disappoint a lot of people. People have their own idea about who these characters are and how they act and how they sound."
The actress also admitted she was hurt following the criticism of her perfromance in the Lone Scherfig-directed film and added: "It got to me."
"There were days when I would liken it to walking between two dams with criticism on either side and you just hope, 'Please don't crumble today, I really can't take it'. There are a lot of things to enjoy. I tried not to let it get to me."
Anne Hathway is currently filming The Dark Knight Rises alongside Christian Bale and Tom Hardy, in which she portrays Catwoman.
