<P> The final film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows--Part 2, was released in July 2011 . Radcliffe, along with the film, was critically acclaimed: Ann Hornaday of The Washington Post asked, "Who could have predicted that Radcliffe, Grint and Watson would turn out to be good actors?"; similarly, Rex Reed said: "Frankly, I'm sorry to see (Radcliffe) go"; while Rolling Stone critic Peter Travers commented on Radcliffe: "Well played, sir ." Roger Ebert gave the film a highly positive review, but felt that Radcliffe, Grint and Watson were "upstaged by the supporting (actors)." </P> <P> Radcliffe admitted that some people would never be able to separate him from the character, but also said he is "proud to be associated with this film series forever ." Despite positive feelings about the movies, he has no interest in doing more Harry Potter films . After Rowling hinted about writing an eighth book, Radcliffe was asked if he would do another film to which he replied: "(It is) very doubtful . I think 10 years is a long time to spend with one character ." Despite devoting so much time to the series, Radcliffe has asserted that he did not miss out on a childhood like other child actors: "I've been given a much better perspective on life by doing Potter ." </P> <P> Radcliffe made his film debut in The Tailor of Panama, an American 2001 film based on John le Carré's 1996 spy novel, and a moderate commercial success . In 2002, he made his stage debut as a celebrity guest in a West End theatre production of The Play What I Wrote, directed by Kenneth Branagh--who also appeared with him in the second Harry Potter film . In 2007, he appeared in the film December Boys, an Australian family drama about four orphans that was shot in 2005 and released to theatres in mid-September 2007 . Also in 2007, Radcliffe co-starred with Carey Mulligan in My Boy Jack, a television drama film shown on ITV on Remembrance Day . The film received mostly positive reviews, with several critics praising Radcliffe's performance as an 18 - year - old who goes missing in action during a battle . Radcliffe stated, "For many people my age, the First World War is just a topic in a history book . But I've always been fascinated by the subject and think it's as relevant today as it ever was ." </P> <P> At age 17, in a bid to show people he was prepared for adult roles, he performed onstage in Peter Shaffer's play Equus, which had not been revived since its first run in 1973, at the Gielgud Theatre . Radcliffe took on the lead role as Alan Strang, a stable boy who has an obsession with horses . Advance sales topped £ 1.7 million, and the role generated significant pre-opening media interest, as Radcliffe appeared in a nude scene . Equus opened on 27 February 2007 and ran until 9 June 2007 . Radcliffe's performance received positive reviews as critics were impressed by the nuance and depth of his against - type role . Charles Spencer of The Daily Telegraph wrote that he "displays a dramatic power and an electrifying stage presence that marks a tremendous leap forward ." He added: "I never thought I would find the diminutive (but perfectly formed) Radcliffe a sinister figure, but as Alan Strang...there are moments when he seems genuinely scary in his rage and confusion ." The production then transferred to Broadway in September 2008, with Radcliffe still in the lead role . Radcliffe stated he was nervous about repeating the role on Broadway because he considered American audiences more discerning than those in London . Radcliffe's performance was nominated for a Drama Desk Award . </P>
