Daniel Radcliffe to appear in 'Harry Potter' sequel?

Daniel Radcliffe aspires to be a father to both biological children and the character that made him famous, Harry Potter.

In the event of a remake or sequel to the franchise, Radcliffe says he would be happy to reappear at Hogworts as Harry’s father, but his days of playing the boy who lived are over.

In an interview with Timeout , Radcliffe said he has “done so much work” to separate himself from the role that made him famous, such as branching out in the starring role of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying on Broadway in 2011.

“Even if Jo [J.K. Rowling] wrote a sequel, which is unlikely, I’d take a LOT of talking round,” the actor says. “Even if they were set later in time. I’m 23, which is too old to be running round in a school boy’s cape. Because the theme parks are expanding there was an enquiry whether I’d do more filming from them and I was like: No, I can’t get away with that any more, I’d just look foolish.”

“No more schoolboy stuff,” Radcliffe tells The Independent “A cameo as Harry’s dad? That would be perfect!”

Radcliffe says that time with is friends and family in the wake of the series ending has been eye opening. The actor says he’s seen the “wonderful change” that has taken place in the lives of his friends who have become parents. The 23-year-old says fatherhood is the “sense of purpose” he is missing.

“I want that,” Radcliffe said about having children. “I don’t know when or [with whom] but I want it. And I’d like to get started on it before my thirties. I like the idea of being a youngish parent. So I’ve got energy to play football even though they’ll be better than me by the time they’re four.”

The British actor recently split from his longtime girlfriend and has been linked to American actresses, though no romantic affairs have been confirmed.

Radcliffe is currently working on writing a script for a dark comedy. He stars in The Cripple of Inishmaan , a comedic play, which opens June 8 in London.
