Watson, Radcliffe, and Grint to Return for 6 & 7
We already knew that Dan Radcliffe and Rupert Grint had contracts for the last two Potter films, and that Emma Watson was in the stage of negotiating one. Warner Brothers has just formally announced that they will indeed be in the last two movies.
“I could never let Hermione go�she is my hero! I love her too much and love what playing her has meant to me. I am excited and honoured to be finishing what I started and playing her in all seven of the films.”
(Emma Watson)
“Playing the role of Harry Potter has been an immense privilege, and I look forward to completing the series. I feel a huge sense of loyalty to the character of Harry and the fans who have supported these films over the years. During filming, I have learnt so much, made lots of friends and met people who have changed my life. I am indebted to J K Rowling, Warner Bros. and David Heyman for giving me this fantastic opportunity.”
(Daniel Radcliffe)
“Ron Weasley has become a big part of my life and not just because we’ve both got ginger hair! I’ve been so proud to play him and loved every second of being part of this world. I’m really looking forward to filming the last two films and being back with my ‘Weasley family’ and, of course, to seeing my good friends Emma and Dan. Thank you to everyone for being so supportive over the years; we couldn’t have done it without you.”
(Rupert Grint)
