Emma Watson has revealed that she can feels for Marilyn Monroe because of their similar lifestyles.

The 21-year-old, who plays Monroe's wardrobe assistant in the new film 'My Week With Marilyn', has said that she can relate to the late icon and the life that she lead because of the craziness surrounding her.

Watson, who is currently attending Oxford University, said at the London premiere of the film: "I certainly feel a lot for her and what she went through. I think she was just trying to find her feet in the midst of this crazy circus that went on around her and find some sort of balance and normality in her life – I can relate to that."

The film, which stars Michelle Williams, who was absent from the premiere, is based on Monroe's relationship with Sir Laurence Olivier while they filmed 'The Prince and The Showgirl' in London in 1956.

Emma, who shot to fame as Hermione in 'Harry Potter', also mentioned what her future plans, as she told the Metro: "There are a lot of things that I'm lining up."

'My Week With Marilyn', which is directed by Simon Curtis is set for release on Friday (November 25).
