(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Daniel Radcliffe has promised a friend he will watch all the Harry Potter movies in one go.

The actor shot to fame playing the boy wizard in the smash hit franchise and recently finished filming scenes for the final two movies in the series, which are based on J.K. Rowlings book Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Daniel has spoken about his sadness about leaving behind the role of Harry, but insists he is looking forward to new acting challenges. The 21-year-old admits he is now regretting agreeing to a marathon DVD session to watch all the movies together as a tribute to his involvement in the franchise.

"I have a friend who's made me promise to watch all the films on DVD with him - only I have to give a kind of live commentary," Daniel revealed. "To be honest I'm dreading it. Not because I don't want to see them, it's just tough for anyone to look back on themselves as a kid and not cringe with embarrassment."

Part one of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is due for worldwide release next month, with the second instalment set to hit cinemas next year. (C) Cover Media
