Robbie Coltrane was recently a part of HBO Max’s “Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts” reunion. The actor filmed an emotional interview for the reunion where he talked about what it was like spending over a decade with the franchise and how his role as Hagrid has played a significant part in the film’s history. “It’s the end of an era,” he said during the special. “10 years of my life. My children have grown up during it.”
In addition to speaking about how the movie has impacted the masses, he also shed light on how the “Harry Potter” franchise will continue to inspire generations to come. “The legacy of the movies is that my children’s generation will show them to their children. So, you could be watching it in 50 years’ time, easy,” he added. Coltrane’s departing words during the reunion mean so much more now that he’s gone. “I’ll not be here, sadly, but Hagrid will,” he continued.
The actor’s agent, Belinda Wright, shared with BBC how her client’s role as Hagrid affected everyone who watched the film. “[He] brought joy to children and adults alike all over the world”. According to the outlet, Coltrane is survived by his sister, his two children, and his children’s mother.
