Daniel Radcliffe confirmed that he will not play Harry Potter again if the movie “The Cursed Legacy” comes out. Read what he said here!
The world of Harry Potter continues to expand after almost more than ten years of the premiere of the last film of the main saga. On the one hand, we have the saga of fantastic animals, of which we will be able to see the third part in April of this year. And on the other, we have the play that he put out Jack Thorn along with the writer JK Rowling, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
This play takes place nineteen years after the events of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallowsand we continue the life of Harry Potter, now an employee Ministry of Magicand his son Albus Severus Potter. The two-part book came out in July 2016, a day after the play officially opened.
Many of the fans of the saga of Harry Potter expect to see a movie of this play. And the fans began to have more hope that this would happen after the statements of Chris Columbus. The director of the first two films of Harry Potter commented that he would like to meet with Emma Watson, Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe to explore the history of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
But all hope was shattered when Radcliffe spoke in an interview about the possibility of re-interpreting Harry Potter. The actor, long story short, said that he’s not too interested in making a Cursed Legacy movie at the moment. “It is not the answer that many want me to give, but I think I was able to go back and enjoy it because it is no longer part of my day to day. I’m getting to a point where I feel like I’ve gotten pretty good out of it. Potter and I am very happy where I am now, going back would be a huge change in my life”.
However, the actor made a comment hinting that he might reprise the character in the distant future. “I’m never going to say never, but the guys at starwars they had like 30 or 40 years before returning. For me, it’s only been 10. It’s not something I’m too interested in doing at the moment.”
The next dose we’ll get from the universe of Harry Potter will be the April 14thwhen it opens Fantastic Beasts: Dumbledore’s Secrets. Another installment that we can expect from the franchise is the video game Howards Legacywhich we could see in the last PlayStation State of Play.
