The Harry Potter franchise will return in 2026 with a live-action remake TV series produced by HBO and JK Rowling, which means fans will meet a new actor who will replace Daniel Radcliffe in the main role.
Obviously for an actor to be tied to a franchise in the long term is always a particular choice, and in the past we have had numerous testimonies of stars wishing to distance themselves from the sagas as much as possible after having spent many years playing the same character, but What does Daniel Radcliffe think about this topic? With Harry Potter destined to pass into the hands of another generation, would he be willing to link himself to another more or less well-known franchise? His career would say the opposite, given that since the end of Harry Potter he has only taken part in original films, but is this a coincidence or a specific choice?
“No, I’m actually not willfully avoiding franchises” the actor admitted during an interview with CBR. “I don’t want to give the impression of rejecting the great sagas, I wouldn’t be against joining another franchise in the future. The opportunity simply hasn’t arisen so far. If someone came to me and said, ‘We’re going to make a franchise out of this thing, we want this movie to be a trilogy or a saga,’ etc., I wouldn’t say no a priori because it’s a saga: simply, as with any project, I would evaluate the scripts and the people with whom I should collaborate. One of the things I love about my career now is that I have a lot of freedom, compared to the past, I’m not tied to just one project. So if I were to agree to tie myself to a single saga for many years, then it would have to be an excellent saga.“
