## Summary

Daniel Radcliffe says he is unsure whether he will watch HBO’s new Harry Potter series, despite having played the title character in all eight films. He explained that he rarely watches television and already has a long list of acclaimed series he has not seen, so the new show’s length is a factor.

Radcliffe also said he would not give Dominic McLaughlin, who will play Harry in the series, advice, saying he does not want his comments to follow the young actor through interviews. He expects McLaughlin to do well and hopes to meet him. The series is due to premiere on HBO on 25 December.
