Radcliffe reluctant to film in the US

The 17-year-old actor explained that he will be reluctant to jet off to Hollywood for film roles after finishing the Harry Potter movies - because he would miss his family and friends back in England too much.
"I don't think I could ever live anywhere but London, to be honest. I've lived there all my life," Radcliffe revealed in an interview with US talk show host Larry King. "And I mean, hey, you know, I could be saying this now and in 20 years I will have moved out here. But for now and the immediate future, I can't - I can't really see myself living anywhere else but England."
Daniel said that his parents were unhappy when Potter producers originally planned to shoot all of the films in the US.
"I signed on for, I think, all of the films and they were all to be done in Los Angeles," he recalled. "My mum and dad were just like: 'Well, we don't really want that to happen, because it would be too big a disruption of his life'. But then it got changed to just two films and signing, and filming, in England."
