Actor Daniel Radcliffe says playing Harry Potter in new movies is not on the cards though has spoken about how the boy wizard has influenced his own character.

Radcliffe, who is currently starring in the indie romantic-comedy "What If", says he and Potter share fiercely loyal sensibilities, reports contactmusic.com.

Appearing at Comic-Con, Radcliffe was asked whether there was a chance he could reprise his role as Potter, given JK Rowling's new projects in the world of Hogwarts. It was a straight and direct 'no' from the 27-year-old though he spoke in-depth about how the character was embedded in himself.

"I'm sure our personalities influenced each other, which sounds crazy because one of us is real and the other isn't," Radcliffe said. "Having spent so much time playing him, his instincts became my instincts, which is not such a bad thing. He's fiercely loyal and curious and brave - and I hope I am," he said.
