Emma Watson was reportedly banned from driving for six months on Wednesday, one year after she got a speeding infraction in Oxford, England.

According to the BBC, the 35-year-old “Harry Potter” star already had had nine points on her license before she drove her blue Audi at 38 mph in a 30 mph zone last July.

During Wednesday’s five-minute hearing, the High Wycombe Magistrates’ Court ordered Watson to pay £1,044 (about $1,400) in fines.

The actress reportedly did not attend the hearing.

The Post has reached out to Watson’s rep for comment.

Watson’s lawyer, Mark Haslam, reportedly told the court that she’s a student and “is in a position to pay the fine.”

The “My Week with Marilyn” star has been studying for her master’s degree in creative writing at Oxford University since 2023.

She has not acted since the 2019 Greta Gerwig period film “Little Women.”

In 2023, Watson and her brother Alex launched their own gin brand, Renais.

That same year, she opened up about her decision to take a break from Hollywood.

“I wasn’t very happy, if I’m being honest,” Watson admitted in an interview with the U.K.’s Financial Times. “I think I felt a big caged.”

“The thing I found really hard was that I had to go out and sell something that I really didn’t have very much control over,” she explained. “To stand in front of a film and have every journalist be able to say, ‘How does this align with your viewpoint?’ It was very difficult to have to be the face and the spokesperson for things where I didn’t get to be involved in the process.”

Watson also noted that she was “held accountable a way that I began to find really frustrating” while she was acting.

“I didn’t have a voice, I didn’t have a say,” she stated. “And I started to realise that I only wanted to stand in front of things where if someone was going to give me flak about it, I could say, in a way that didn’t make me hate myself, ‘Yes, I screwed up, it was my decision, I should have done better.’”

However, the “Beauty and the Beast” actress promised she will “absolutely” return to acting one day.

“But I’m happy to sit and wait for the next right thing,” she shared. “I love what I do. It’s finding a way to do it where I don’t have to fracture myself into different faces and people. And I just don’t want to switch into robot mode anymore.”
