Freddie Stroma talks about the trio and life after “Potter”

As we mentioned previously, Freddie Stroma – the actor who portrayed Cormac McLaggen in the Harry Potter series – will be appearing in the upcoming movie A Cinderella Story: Once Upon A Song, which is a modern musical twist to the classic story.

During his promotional interviews, Freddie discusses being a part of the Potter series, including how nice it is to see the trio moving on so well. When asked how he felt now that the franchise is over, Freddie said:

“It was definitely very sad leaving but at the same time it was nice to see how the actors go on and do different things. It’s nice to see people moving on as well and being allowed to show off their talents as well. I was sad when I watched the final one. I was like, ‘Oh, so it’s over. It’s an end of an era.’ I can’t think of any other scenario where you have such a big franchise. I mean, you’ve got eight films that have been going for over a decade. It’s just so strange to see it end, I guess.”

The DVD for A Cinderella Story: Once Upon A Time will be released September 6.

You can also see Freddie alongside Potter star Bonnie Wright in the upcoming 2012 film, The Philosophers.
