Actor Says He\u2019d Do It"},"content":{"rendered":"

Daniel Radcliffe, who played Harry Potter in the enormously successful film adaptations of the books, says that although he’s ruled out ever playing Harry again, he’d definitely play Harry’s father<\/a>, James.<\/p>\n

“\u201cNo more schoolboy stuff. A cameo as Harry\u2019s dad? That would be perfect!\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Of course, Harry famously looks just like his father, so it wouldn’t exactly be a stretch. It would also fit in with Radcliffe’s desire to move away from the role that made him famous while revisiting the characters at the same time. The 23-year old actor has made a conscious effort to distance himself from Harry, taking roles on stage–such as the controversial Broadway production of Equus which required him to be nude–and in films like “The Woman In Black” and “Kill Your Darlings”, a biopic about Allen Ginsberg.<\/p>\n

The young actor recently spoke about being a dad, which he hopes is in the cards for him in the near future.<\/p>\n

\u201cI definitely want to have kids,\u201d he said<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve grown up around lots of people who were having kids when I knew them, because a lot of them were a lot older than me. And I saw the wonderful change in them. I see that it gives you a sense of purpose that up till now I only really get from work. I want that. I don\u2019t know when or [with whom] but I want it. And I\u2019d like to get started on it before my thirties. I like the idea of being a youngish parent. So I\u2019ve got energy to play football even though they\u2019ll be better than me by the time they\u2019re four.\u201d<\/p>\n
