“It seemed, looking back at it now, that Potter would be the only thing in my life. But there were many, many things ahead of that,” he added.
Further in the conversation, the actor also reflected upon the difficulties he faced to bag any role after being done with the eight parts of the wizarding franchise.

Felton noted, “It wasn’t really returning to auditioning. It was learning to audition all over again.”
He went on to explain, “When children are brought in, half of it is, ‘Can you stand on the mark, not look down the lens of the camera, and take basic direction?’ I mean, really, how good can any seven-year-old be at anything?”

“Going in there as a 20-year-old, especially in Los Angeles, the auditions are far more frequent and cut-throat.”
“It’s a lesson – not necessarily in brutality, but in acceptance,” he summed.
