Confirmed: Radcliffe will be Harry Potter for last...


Confirmed: Radcliffe will be Harry Potter for last two films.

Posted by jrfoldes 1041 days ago
Daniel Radcliffe's official website has confirmed that he will be back as Harry Potter for the last two installments of the series: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This will put to rest any rumours that he was booted from the franchise due to his current "controversial" role in the play Equus.

    No one else could play Harry now he has come too far. I am glad they decided to keep him. It wouldn't be the same without him.

  • Just as he should be. He is an actor after all and at some point he did have to branch out from his 'Harry Potter image.

  • Absoultely Fantastic! No on could be able to replace him- it just wouldn't be the same...besides the franchize should not start those silly rumors because of his artistic choice in being part of Equus, has nothing to do with his role as playing "Harry Potter" =D You go Dan!!

  • I am glad to here Dan will be on board for the remaining two Potter films. It would be a mistake to cast another actor this late in the game.

    I cannot believe the ruckus that his appearing in "Eqqus" has caused. Give the kid a break!! He is an actor (and is proving to be a damn goog one too!!) and I cannot blame him for wanting to branch out into other roles in between shooting the Harry Potter films. I mean, he is not going to be Harry Potter forever, but it is good that he remains in the films. They would be weird without him.

    Kidos too, to Warner Bros. for finally "lightening up" and not making much more of a fuss than they already made, and for signing Dan up for the last two films. I have not seen "Eqqus" but I heard he has gotten good reviews. I am frankly not surprised. I am sure Dan will continue to grow as an actor and go on giving fine performances in other films/plays. He might even win an Oscar some day!!

  • I can't believe how bizarre the reaction is (especially from middle Britain) of Daniel taking a part in Equus. I hate to inform them that Daniel isn't actually Harry Potter, but an actor (shock - horror!). It's a bit like saying that Harrison Ford can't play anyone else other than Indiana or Drew Barrymore be anything but the "cute" one from ET. So best of luck to Daniel, even if it means that he shows us all what he's made of...

  • If you put Daniel Radcliffe into your Google image search you will get a BIG surprise.

    Radcliffe has signed up to star in a play where he is a troubled young man who blinds 7 horses with a rail way spike.
    He smokes, drinks and swears onstage.
    Plus he is naked for 10 min onstage

  • i am glad daniel radcliife has got the role to play harry for the last two harry potter movies. Equus is movie that shows he can do other significant roles apart from playing a wizard. its better to support him rather than criticising.

  • As if they would have booted him, are any kids going to go see this play? Come on, it's for a totally different audience, and if you're too young to appreciate a diverse actor, you are obviously too young to watch this play (and probably the rest of the movies too, if the books are any indication). The rumour was just that, a rumour. They never would have made the movies without him.

  • what he does on his own time shouldnt matter, even tho i think he shouldnt have, its his business and he will be the one who will be livin with it for the rest of his life. he is a great actor, and whatever else he does shouldnt take that away from him. i dont know y ppl r freakin out on it anyway, thats what everyone wants to see now adays...thats all u see in commercials, movies, and tv. if ppl wanna bitch about this, they should start with those racey tv adds like the victoria secret ones for starters. woman show themselves off way 2 much, leaves no room for imagination and leaves every one of them lookin like sluts. but who cares, its jus my opinion~right?

  • I was under the impression that every cast member of the Harry Potter series was under some kind of contract that stated that once they began the filming they had to complete the series... Well everyone except Dombeldor (forgive my spelling) for obivous reasons...

    But I could be wrong, I've been wrong before...

  • These characters are an invested interest. The producers and movie execs would be nuts to change the actors at this stage. Only a serious conflict in contracts would want them to change it up. I hope that goes for ALL actors for this cast, b/c they are so attached to these characters. Please, cast, stay on!!!
