This June, "Harry Potter" fans will bid the series a final fond farewell as "Deathly Hallows, Part 2" hits theaters. With "Part 1" already out on DVD and Harry Potter: The Exhibition at the Discovery Times Square building in New York City, the series is not going out quietly.
One of the series' stars, Jamie Campbell Bower, admits he feels lucky to have been a piece of that very large puzzle.
"I was only on set for a very short period of time, and I only play a very small role in the film," he told MTV News when he stopped by to talk about his new Starz series "Camelot." "I suppose, you know, just for me personally, being able to be involved in something that is taking place in England for 10 years and something that has given people jobs and a great boost to the British film industry, that was a real honor."
Bower has appeared in two of the iconic films (both parts of "Deathly Hallows"), and he said that seeing it all come to an end has even more meaning for the film's principal stars, who have been there since day one.
"For the other guys in it, again, it's been a part of their lives for 10 years, and that's a big deal. I suppose maybe they didn't see it as a job, it just sort of became their daily life: Go to school, do your job and go home and have your fish and chips — 'cause we all eat fish and chips," he joked. "I can imagine it's exciting for them and emotional as well."
