If you have been following Daniel Radcliffe's work after Harry Potter, you would have noticed something that the British actor is purposely doing; moving away from Hogwarts and any role or character that even closely resembles his portrayal as Harry Potter.
Asked if he would return as Harry Potter in the "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" films, Radcliffe told Variety:
"I don't think so. I don't like to say no to things, but it's not something that I'm rushing to do. I feel like those films have moved on and they're doing just fine without us. I'm happy to keep it that way."
But does that mean there is absolutely no chance for fans across the world to see Radcliffe as Harry Potter again? A beloved character he played from 2001 to 2011.
"I like what my life is now. I'm not saying that I'll never go back into any franchise, but I like the flexibility that I have with my career now. And I don't want to get into a situation where I'm signed up for one series for years in advance," added the actor.
He will be soon seen in "Escape From Pretoria", a true-life prison drama. In the film, Radcliffe plays Tim Jenkin, an anti-apartheid activist who was imprisoned in South Africa for distributing political pamphlets that were critical of the racist government.
