With her busy movie schedule, rising star Emma Roberts is certainly speeding along the Hollywood fast track. The 19-year-old niece of Julia Roberts stars in the upcoming dramedy It's Kind of a Funny Story and is currently filming the hotly anticipated Scream 4. Now, she's on the latest cover of W magazine (with Zoe Kravitz, Jennifer Lawrence and Kat Dennings) and posing for racy photos inside. 

In one W photo, the teen actress who once played Nancy Drew poses in just a black bra. And in the accompanying interview, Roberts matter-of-factly ponders her on-camera boundaries. "I've never had a full-on sex scene... but we'll see." She adds, "I don't know that I'd do a full-on nude scene, ever."

With such a poised-for-her-years attitude about putting her "child star" status behind her, is Roberts headed for Lindsay Lohan cautionary-tale territory? Her famous family (which includes her dad, actor Eric Roberts) surely hopes not. When she was young, her loved ones apparently didn't even realize how strongly she felt about acting, at all!

"My first audition, while I was 9, was...playing Johnny Depp's daughter," she says. "I think everyone in my family was shocked because they sent me on an the audition to kind of shut me up about the acting thing."
