I don't think leave the Harry Potter franchise. Not wanting to act, yes. I think it was that stage of rebellion, really. Everyone goes through it. I thought, "I've been an actor. My parents are proud of me being an actor. I want to do something else." I wanted to join the Army, actually, or be in the Air Force, or something like that. I still wouldn't mind doing that. Obviously, it's a bit late for me now.

There was never any point at which I was considering leaving Harry Potter. If I were to stop acting, it would have been after.

Obviously, when you're in theater, you have to be in character. You have to prepare for the unexpected. You have to be able to react to things that don't necessarily happen every night, or aren't supposed to happen every night. And you have to react to it in character. In six months, 192 shows, those things did happen. And the experience of that, the ability to stay in character, I feel like I've learned a great deal.

I was a short, chubby kid, pretty shy.

I wasn't bullied or anything at school, but I was quite shy and didn't speak up too much in class.

I mean, I must confess I don't own Harry Potter DVDs. My parents do. They have them all. And they like watching them.

If someone wants to employ me, whoever wants to employ me, I'll go and do that. I just want to work.
