It's interesting for myself, growing up as an Asian-American filmmaker. Coming into the industry, my parents always said, "No one's going to give you the opportunity. You just have to do the work. Be better than everyone else, so they can't deny it."
Franchises aren't to be avoided. They can be exciting, and they give you opportunities to do other films.
I absolutely don't relate to being beaten down my whole life - I had amazing opportunities at a young age - but there is still in many, many people's minds the notion that I'll never be able to escape Harry Potter.
Potter for me is something that's been giving me these amazing opportunities to start a career and learn while I'm doing, which is the best way to learn.
I think Harry Potter's very important. Every opportunity I will get for the rest of my life, I would not have got if it wasn't for Harry Potter. And it would be height of ingratitude if I was ever anything but proud to be associated with these films.
I'll miss some of the opportunities that playing Harry [Potter] brought me.
