Daniel
Radcliffe joined us this morning for the Television Critics
Association summer press tour in Beverly Hills, California to promote
the second season of
“A Young Doctor’s Notebook & Other Stories” (September, 2014). Although
he has not had a chance to read the newly released “Harry
Potter” short story author J.K. Rowling published this morning on her
Pottermore
website, the actor did let the room know he plans to dig into it soon.
“I
haven’t read it yet,” says Radcliffe, “but I do plan to read it.”
Whether or not he is interested in slipping on the iconic round-frame
glasses and
Harry’s trademark scare is a completely different story. Radcliffe has been
nothing but positive about his experience as the boy wizard, but also there
has not been new “Harry Potter” material, until today.
“I don’t know,”
sighs Radcliffe when asked if he would want to reprise Harry Potter as an
adult. “My inclination is to say no. It’s not a question that is even
hypothetical at the moment. From what I understand it’s a very, very short
piece that I’m not sure of myself is worthy of adaptation to film. He’s at
least twelve years older than I am now. So, I don’t think I’ll have to
worry about that for a long time.”
“I’m hoping,” he adds with a smile.
For
now, Radcliffe is content to take on a variety of roles, including a second
season of the hit Ovation series “A Young Doctor’s Notebook & Other
Stories.” You can watch the first season on Netflix and Amazon Prime.
