Emma Watson has magically abandoned her good girl image by replacing it with a rebellious woman who knows how to get attention.

The British actress plays the leading role in the Sofia Coppola-directed movie about the real life Bling Ring or The Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch as they were known, whom were arrested in 2009 for a string of break-ins at the homes of stars, including Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton.

And playing the ring leader of the Hollywood obsessed group, Emma certainly does not hold back, transforming herself into one of Tinsel Town's notorious party girls.

In the new image released on Monday, a dark haired Emma stands in front of a mirror starring at herself in a club outfit.

The 22-year-old's bad girl character seems mesmerised with herself - and for good reason - as she flashes a perfectly toned stomach and shapely curves in a bight pink leopard print bra with black lace.

Obviously thinking she looks so good, as the ringleader, she does not put on a top and instead wears just a white vest with a high waisted black skirt in order to show off more of her fabulous figure.

Emma's character 'Nicki' is loosely based on real life Bling Ring member Alexis Neiers, who was not the ring leader, but become the best known of those convicted.

The daughter of a Playboy model, the now 21-year-old served some of the least amount of time in jail of the group, but managed to covert her notoriety into fame starring in the reality show Pretty Wild about her and her family's lives.

Alexis was renowned for her partying ways and it seems Emma's character is no different, as in the first trailer for the film Nicki can be seen seductively dancing in one of Hollywood's top clubs.

Licking her lips and staring at the men watching her, she makes sure all the attention is on her and no other girl at the club.

The real life gang of four girls and three boys got world wide media attention when they were caught by police after targeting their idols - including Paris, Orlando Bloom and Lindsa - in a stealing spree of luxury goods, jewelry and cash worth more than $3 million - most of which belonged to Paris.

Art imitating life: While names and roles have been changed the film features the core group of four girls and one boy - two more men were charged with dealing with the stolen goods - who targeted their idols

Paris, who was then at the height of her fame, has a cameo in the film which will be released June 14.

While The Simple Life star does not feature in the highly stylised trailer, her home and her image certainly do.

As one of the group declares 'Let's go shopping' - the only dialogue in the trailer - the teens run amuck in the heiress' extensive closet surrounded in designer shoes and bags.

The film is released by A24 the same distributors as competing edgy film Spring Breakers starring Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens, who was ironically set to be targeted by the group before their arrest.

The sneak peak, which stays true to Coppola's stylised story telling technique, is more music video than trailer with the superficiality of the group put on display as they steal to meet their expensive tastes and splash out their victim's cash on bottle service at Hollywood's top clubs - the same venues where their rich and famous targets partied.

Despite being relatively affluent, the girls in particular became obsessed with the lifestyle led by the celebrities and looked through magazine shoots and TV interviews to see what items belonging to the star's they wanted to steal.

The film also stars Leslie Mann, who plays Nicki's mum and newcomers Israel Broussard and Katie Chang, who's charters are inspired by the real life ring leaders.

Katie's character 'Rebecca' is based on the reality television-obsessed Rachel Lee who was accused of masterminding the heists and is currently serving a a four year prison term.

Rachel allegedly got the gang to target actor Orlando's home as she wanted to steal his then-girlfriend now wife's Miranda Kerr's Victoria secret lingerie - no doubt inspiring the scene with Emma's character stripping down to her bra.

Not such a free bird: Emma's character is based on Alexis Neiers. Alexis went on to have her own reality show following her arrest and was arrested again in 2010, mug shot pictured, for possessing heroin

Spot the difference: There has been great anticipation about Emma's role as the leader of the group despite the real life girl her character 'Nicki' is based not being the ring leader

Critics are already gearing up for the film about the fame-obsessed to be a cult hit as many of the director's have been before including Marie Antoinette and the Virgin Suicides.

Commenting on the casting, Sofia said: 'I'm excited about the young cast we're assembling and I'm looking forward to shooting on location in Los Angeles.'

Despite previously claiming she wanted to stop acting and spend more time studying, Emma has completed a number of movies, including a small role in My Week with Marilyn and an adaptation of The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
