Daniel Radcliffe never wants to play Harry Potter again

Highlights

  • The 21-year-old actor has starred as the boy wizard in all eight movies in the series – most recently Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, the second instalment of the adaptation of J.K. Rowling's seventh book - but hopes the author doesn't write anymore sequels as he thinks the franchise has finished at the right time.
  • He said, "I’m the only person in the world that doesn’t want there to be an eighth Harry Potter book. Believe me, I’ve given 10 years – I can! I think it’s been an amazing 10 years and I would be quite happy for it to finish at this point because the stories were rounded off in such a succinct and perfect way."
  • Despite his reluctance to return to the franchise, Daniel will always be "proud" of his work on the movie series.

He also said, "Every opportunity I will get for the rest of my life, I would not have got if it wasn't for Harry Potter. It would be the height of ingratitude if I was ever anything but proud to be associated with these films."
