Fourteen-year-old Emma Watson, who plays Harry's sidekick Hermione, meanwhile turned on the style in an elegant floor-length gown with a cream corsage. "It's all completely surreal," she said. "It's just completely amazing. I can't believe it."
And director Alfonso Cuaron predicted the youngsters' success will continue for many years to come. "Emma Watson will be one of the biggest stars of the future," he affirmed.
