Daniel Radcliffe has been making the media rounds with James McAvoy for their new film "Victor Frankenstein." The actor made famous by the immensely popular "Harry Potter" series has been asked multiple times throughout his press tour about all the new and exciting things that are happening in the "Harry Potter" world, like the forthcoming film "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" and the London West End play, "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child."
"Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" was co-written by "Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling, and is being marked as "the eighth story" in the "Harry Potter" series, as HNGN previously reported. The play will explore Harry's life as an adult, including his life as an Auror at the Ministry of Magic and his relationship with his youngest son Albus. It is set 19 years after the events of the final "Harry Potter" book, "The Deathly Hallows" and will take place in two parts due to the "epic nature of the story."
"I'm getting asked a lot, 'Would you play him?' and I'm like, 'No.' Because I've done it. But it would be very weird to see someone else play him," Radcliffe told "Watch What Happens Live" host Andy Cohen about the upcoming play.
Radcliffe also weighed in on the upcoming film, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," which will expand the wizarding world of "Harry Potter." The screenplay was written by Rowling, stars Academy Award-winning actor Eddie Redmayne as Newt Scamander and will take place in New York City in 1926.
"I can barely keep myself in this chair," Radcliffe said. "Yes, I am very excited but I've also been asked about it a lot, and I don't have any information to give, unfortunately."
