Daniel Radcliffe, who played Harry Potter in the film adaptations, is unlikely to watch the new "Harry Potter" TV series on HBO. In an interview with AP, Radcliffe acknowledged his own extensive involvement with the franchise. "I've been in a lot of 'Harry Potter' already," he stated. Radcliffe also noted that he doesn't watch much TV.
He added, "I haven't seen 'Breaking Bad.' I haven't seen 'Mad Men.' I haven't seen some of the real classics. So, you know, eight hours is a lot of anything to watch." When asked for advice to the young actor, Dominic McLaughlin, playing the iconic role, Radcliffe refused to offer any insights, saying, "I’m really truly in the business of not giving Dominic advice."
McLaughlin is joined by Arabella Stanton as Hermione Granger, Alastair Stout as Ron Weasley, John Lithgow as Albus Dumbledore, Janet McTeer as Minerva McGonagall, Paapa Essiedu as Severus Snape, Nick Frost as Rubeus Hagrid, and others, including Kit Harington and Bonnie Hill, in the upcoming season. The first season is set to premiere on Christmas Day with a Season 2 renewal already secured.
