The 32-year-old actor opened up about his thoughts and how he felt watching the Cursed Child plays.
“It’ll be weird if it was a continuation kind of thing,” he told Varietyof the possible TV series. “I weirdly feel quite protective of that character. Even when I saw the stage shows, it was a very strange experience… If it’s like a different group of friends, I guess it would be interesting.”
Rupert also revealed that he hasn’t seen most of the Harry Potter movies!
“I’ve probably seen the first three at the premieres, but after that I stopped watching them,” he shared. “But now that I have a daughter, I will probably have to watch them with her.”
The 32-year-old actor was asked about the possibility while promoting the second season of his show Servant.
“I don’t know. I mean, never say never,” he told ComicBook.com. “I would never say, ‘Absolutely no.’ It was a huge part of my life and I’m very fond of that character and their stories. So yeah, I mean, I’d be up for it at the right time. I don’t know what capacity that would be, but yeah, we’ll see.”
The 30-year-old actor shared that he thinks it’s strange they’re at that age of having kids, but it’s cool.
“Yes, I texted him the other day, actually, just being like, I’m so happy for him,” Daniel said during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live!. “It’s very, very cool.”
He also added, “It’s also super weird for me to think that we are all of the age where we’re having children, but we definitely are and it’s really cool.”
“We’re all just a terrible yardstick for how old you are,” Daniel continued. “I remember when I turned 30, a lot of people in my life were really depressed to find out that had happened.”
In case you missed it, Daniel recently read the first chapter of the first “Harry Potter” book!
“Rupert Grint and Georgia Groome are delighted to confirm the birth of their baby girl. We would please ask that you respect their privacy at this very special time,” a representative told the publication in a statement.
The two first confirmed that they were expecting a child back in April as Georgia was seen showing off her baby bump on a shopping run.
The 31-year-old Harry Potter actor and the 28-year-old Double Date star confirmed that they’re expecting after Georgia stepped out with a prominent baby bump in recent photos during a shopping outing in London, United Kingdom.
“Rupert Grint and Georgia Groome are excited to announce they are expecting a baby and would please ask for privacy at this time,” a publicist for the couple confirmed to Just Jared.
Rupert and Georgia have been dating since 2011, and have largely been private about their relationship.
