Daniel Radcliffe Nopes Out Of Seeing ‘Cursed Child’ For Audience’s Sake

We can all agree that Daniel Radcliffe will always be Harry Potter – always, always, always.


He knows it too, which is why he won’t be probably won’t be dropping by London’s West End to catch previews of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child‘ anytime soon.

The Brit told E! News he’d hate to rock up, only to be mobbed by die-hard HP fans who are more interested in watching him than taking in the magic of the stage show.
“It would be a weird one,” he said. “I could be completely wrong in this, but I feel like if I went to see it that night, there’s going to be a lot of Harry Potter fans there in the audience obviously and would that then become a thing? Would it be more about them watching me watch the show, or would it take away from the show. I would never want to do anything that would distract or take away from the show.” 

Previews of the hugely-anticipated play have already kicked off, and J.K. Rowling has specially requested that theatre-goers keep the magic alive by not blabbing.

“You’ve been amazing for years at keeping Harry Potter secrets so you didn’t spoil the books for readers who came after you,” she said in a specially-released video.

“So i’m asking you one more time to keep the secrets, and let audience members enjoy Cursed Child with all the surprises we’ve built into the story. Thank you.” 

The play officially opens at the London Palace Theater on July 7th, and we’re in dire need of a Portkey to get us there.
