Last week fans of the Harry Potter to James Bond franchises were hit hard by the news that the actor Robbie Coltrane was dead . Although Coltrane has played a number of memorable roles on TV and on the big screen, he will always be best known for his role as Hagrid in the Harry Potter franchise, and co-star Tom Felton remembers his friend with a quote that will likely make too. the coldest heart feels emotional.
Felton shared an image on instagram with a quote from Coltrane that recalls his time in Harry Potter movie. The making of the films took a decade and Coltrane talks about how his life changed during that time and how the films will live on after him, which of course they are now. Felton adds his comment to the “Wands up” quote, a reference to how wizards honor the dead in Harry Potter universe.
It turns out that the fans did exactly what Tom Felton asked for. At Universal’s Islands of Adventure theme park, home to Hogwarts Castle, Harry Potter fans gathered for an impromptu ceremony where they raised their wands in honor of Hagrid and Robbie Coltrane. It will probably be something we will see again, because the wizarding world of Harry Potter is a physical place where people can remember the movies, it is basically a church for Harry Potter fans. The same thing happened several years ago. after the death of Alan Rickman .
There has been an outpouring of love for Robbie Coltrane since his death was confirmed on Friday. Besides Felton, Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson also shared their memories working with the actor, who seems to have been universally loved. actors like Hugh Laurie, who was part of Coltrane’s long career outside of Harry Potter they also said how sweet and seemingly funny it was.
Robbie Coltrane certainly knew exactly what he was talking about with that statement. Although all of the actor’s work survives now that he’s gone, the Harry Potter Films will almost certainly be what will keep Coltrane in front of people for decades to come. It is a film franchise that will be seen by new generations, as those who saw it as children show it to their children, and there will always be new fans of Hagrid de Coltrane.
That said, Coltrane’s career has been much more than Harry Potter’s and future generations who fall in love with Hagrid will likely meet the actor again in other places, such as the James Bond franchise and classic British television such as black viper Yes Cracker. Few people are blessed with so many popular characters who will live on after death, but Robbie Coltrane will be one of those people.
