Comparison of story

Radcliffe continued in the spirit of a fresh approach to the magical saga: 'I'm excited to see what other people do with it. I made a comparison with a story like Sherlock Holmes. The Potter series has always been bigger than one interpretation or franchise, so it's cool to see the passing of the torch.
