Harry Potter <\/em>may be the thing that people will best remember Daniel Radcliffe for, which isn’t too surprising given how crazy popular the series is.<\/p>\n

With the series still getting headlines due to the recent release of Fantastic Beasts 2<\/a> <\/em>and the mega-popular Broadway show Harry Potter and the Cursed Child<\/em><\/a>, the big question we – and most people – are wondering is whether ol’ Daniel will check out Beasts <\/em>or the Cursed Child<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Sadly, the answer is no (for Cursed Child <\/em>at least).<\/p>\n

During his recent appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers <\/em>to promote his new Broadway show The Lifespan of Fact<\/em>, Dan was asked if he’ll go watch Cursed Child<\/em> and he said that’ll “probably” be a no, nor does have have plans to see it either.<\/p>\n

Explaining his reasons, the actor explains that watching the play will likely not only throw him into “some existential crisis”, he probably won’t have a relaxing time at the theatre because of all the attention focused on what his reaction to the play would be.<\/p>\n\n

It’s a little sad that Dan won’t check out Cursed Child<\/em>, but his reasons for not doing so are perfectly understandable. <\/p>\n

Heck, we’d also feel uncomfortable if everyone in a theatre were carefully watching us watch a Broadway show.<\/p>\n

Perhaps he’ll watch Fantastic Beasts 2<\/a> <\/em>at some point since he can watch that on DVD from the privacy of his own home.<\/p>\n
