Daniel Radcliffe has opened up on the upcoming Harry Potter TV series, and he’s not confident he’ll be invited to take part. The actor, 33, became a household name as a child alongside Rupert Grint and Emma Watson as they led the cast in the Harry Potter film series, based on the books by JK Rowling. As well as the film franchise, Potter has launched spin-off films, a West End play, theme parks, merchandise, video games and a still-thriving, still massive fandom.
It was recently announced that HBO is creating a TV series based on JK’s famous books, with the role made famous by Daniel to be played by a brand new budding actor. In a new interview, Daniel was asked straight out if he finds it strange that someone else will be playing the boy wizard, more than 20 years after he took it on. He said he doesn’t find it strange as he ‘always knew the Potter universe is going to keep growing’ – but does find it ‘weird’ to think there’s a little kid out there whose life is about to change.
‘With the TV show that’s been announced, Potter was always going to be something that carries on and on,’ he told Deadline. ‘It’s way too big a literary phenomenon to stop with the series of films we did. I kind of always knew these things would be happening,’ he added, comparing it tothe likes of Sherlock Holmes, whose story has been reimagined multiple times and played by countless different actors over the years.
Asked if he thought he could make a cameo in the TV series, Dan admitted readily: ‘I don’t think so, no. ’He explained: ‘From everything I’ve read it’s going to be starting fresh, it would be weird for me to pop in. ‘The weird thought I have though is like, there’s probably an eight-year-old kid out there somewhere whose life is

Rowling’s best-selling series of novels, conceived this time as a television series for its streaming service Max.

In a new interview with ComicBook to promote his TBS comedy series “Miracle Workers: End Times,” Radcliffe expressed his support for whatever comes for “Harry Potter,” but that he doesn’t feel he needs to be there. “My understanding is that they’re trying to very much start fresh and I’m sure whoever is making them will want to make their own mark on it and probably not want to have to figure out how to get old Harry to cameo in this somewhere,” Radcliffe stated. “I’m definitely not seeking it out in any way. But I do wish them, obviously, all the luck in the world and I’m very excited to have that torch passed. But I don’t think it needs me to physically pass it.”
