J.K. Rowling to End Harry Potter Books, Says Radcliffe
MTV News caught up with Daniel Radcliffe last night at the U.S. Premiere of the latest "Harry Potter" film, "Deathly Hallows - Part 1".

The actor told MTV News that after the London premier last week, "Potter" author, J.K. Rowling sent him a text with some rather surprising news.

He said, "Basically, it amounted to the fact that she felt I had been very good in this 'Harry Potter' film, and as a reward for that, she wasn't going to [write] any more 'Harry Potter' [books]."

This is probably devastating to those who are huge Harry Potter fans, including Radcliffe himself. "It's sad, absolutely. "[But] we're going out on a high note. To sustain this level of quality for 10 years is a very rare thing in a big franchise. I think it's us and 'Toy Story,' to be honest. I think we've done amazingly. I'm thrilled."

He also commented, "I'm sure she will be writing other books. But I can pretty much guarantee that Harry will not be a feature."
