All of us Potterheads obviously had some strong emotions when the last Harry Potter movie came out, marking the end of the memorable HP era. But the actors that played the Golden Trio (Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe, and Rupert Grint) obviously were very sad about the end of their career at Leavesden Studios. I put together some of the things the trio said, proving their internal and external emotions about them being sad about the end of HP.

These are their reactions to Harry Potter's ending.

Emma Watson [after premiere of DHp2] : "I feel like someone's dying, I know that sounds like an exaggeration but I really do. I'm not planning to do anything this summer - I'm going to need time to collect myself and get myself back together a bit.”

Daniel Radcliffe [talking about the last araw working on HP] : "It's going to be bizarre. I'm going to be devastated. It's going to be very, very sad because it's been such an important part of my life. There will never be one scene in any of the Harry Potters that, when I watch it, won't trigger a series of memories about what that araw was about and what I was doing."

Rupert Grint [talking about last day] : "Yeah, I don’t really know how it’s going to feel on the last araw when we never come back. I’ve never really imagined it ending. I'm not good at saying good-byes...it'll be hard for me."

Emma Watson [at Deathly Hallows Part 2 premiere] : "I’m feeling so many different emotions, I almost feel numb. I almost don’t know how to feel, it’s so overwhelming. This has been the most significant part of my life, and being a part of these films has sort of defined who I am up until this moment."

Daniel Radcliffe [at Deathly Hallows Part 2 premiere] : "Some people will never be able to separate me from Harry, but I am proud to be associated with this film series forever."

Rupert Grint [at Deathly Hallows Part 2 premiere]: "It’s still quite a strange thing to come to terms with, just the fact that we won’t be coming back susunod year. It really is the end. I’m not usually sentimental with stuff like that, but it has been a huge part of our lives, and it just feels really sudden that it’s all coming to an end. This feeling of freedom is quite overwhelming. I've been here since I was 11, I never imagined I’d be here 10 years later talking about the eighth film. It just seems so surreal. It’s been so much fun. I really am truly going to miss it.”


There you have it. The stars' reactions to their childhood literally ending. But don't worry-- Harry Potter will always be there, as long as there are still those remain loyal... as long as you stuck with the trio until the very end.
