i've heard the same talk from Harrisson Ford with the Indiana Jones role and he's still back decades after despite his successful career. its different when you enjoy the crew you work with and for Dan this is one such experience that i'm sure he will want to go back to eventually.

I agree! Even though the filming wrapped a year ago, Harry Potter isn't really over for him yet because DH part 2 hasn't been released. So even though he has kind of moved himself away from Potter by doing How To Succeed, Woman in Black and other projects, he's still very much involved in Harry Potter so he hasn't completely gotten rid of it yet

At this point it's completely understandable that he feels like that. But his perspective may be completely different when he's managed to establish a career outside of all this and everything has settled down. But we'll see. Never say never. Who knows what the future holds for him and all of us.

When it comes to Pottermore, I find it very hard to believe that it'd be another book... I would love to read about the Marauders though, for example! The encyclopedia would also be awesome. But I kind of think that a new book would be a way too obvious answer to the question of what Pottermore is. I mean, I just kind of feel that Jo knows the name "Pottermore" will immediately cause speculations about a new book... It'd be so JK to surprise us all with something completely different.
