While promoting The Woman in Black‘s DVD release, Harry Potter lead actor Dan Radcliffe spoke about all of the films being re-released in 3D, which led Radcliffe on a bit of a rant about potential remakes.

The conversation went like this (conducted by Collider):

Q: I have a feeling that down the road WB will re-release the entire Harry Potter series in 3D. What’s your feeling on that possibility?

Radcliffe: I have no idea . . . Yeah, they probably will, won’t they, I suppose? Maybe the 3D fad will have passed by the time we get around to it, who knows? I don’t know, I’m sure there is going to be many box sets and 3D releases of everything. In terms of how it affects my life, it doesn’t really other then there’s different things for me to sign. It will be a new box set to slap a signature on. The thing I always say about 3D is it’s not for me, I don’t love it. If you like 3D, and you like Harry Potter, then I have no doubt that you’ll love Harry Potter in 3D. But if you don’t like 3D, then it probably won’t add much for you. The one thing that terrifies me is that the idea that in 20 years or so they’ll probably remake the films. Just with the world’s generally shrinking attention span, it will probably only be 10 years before people are ready to remake them again. So you know, I could come back and play Lupin or whoever I want in 20 years maybe.

Radcliffe has commented on the potential for remakes in the past. At one time he said he’d want to play James Potter. In another interview he said he’s upset over the idea of them.

How soon do you think Harry Potter remakes will be made, if ever?
