When asked about his experiences as a child actor filming the long-running "Harry Potter" series in the A24 Podcast, Daniel Radcliffe spoke openly about the working conditions. He commented that he always enjoyed the process, and then added, "That's the other thing that's a key, is I feel like a lot of young people get started in it and then get to a point where they're like, 'I don't really like this anymore,' and then some of them are in a position where they've become the breadwinner for their family, essentially, at which point there's a pressure to continue, which I never had."
Radcliffe then revealed that both of his parents would communicate with him about what he wanted to do between each movie in the series. He would answer that liked playing the character because of his dislike for attending school. This was for a good reason since he also shared how he was once berated by a teacher about his supposed lack of intelligence.
In terms of ever returning to the part that defined the first part of his acting career, Radcliffe has consistently squashed talk of a "Cursed Child" follow-up film. Even though it has been over a decade since "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2" came and went from theaters, he has no desire to return to the wizarding world yet.
