Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe shoot their final Harry Potter Series

The lead actors from the Harry Potter films have expressed their destruction over the franchise coming to an end, but now the pain has been captured on their faces.

As Emma Watson, who plays Hermione Granger, and Daniel Radcliffe, wizard Harry Potter, shot their final scenes for the film, they looked distressed.

The actors were shooting in the landscape near Stevenage, Hertfordshire, for the seventh and final Potter movie and were perceptibly exciting.

Watson had her hand on Radcliffe’s shoulder to comfort him, while their co-star Rupert Grint, who plays Ron, also had a frown on his face and his arm in a sling.

The final episode in the series will see the three friends propelled into the future, where we will see them as middle-aged parents.

Some of the final filming for the new flick is also taking part in London, and just days ago King's Cross station was transformed into platform 9 ¾ for the adaptation of JK Rowling’s books.

Recently Watson likened the end of the series to ‘a friend dying’ and Radcliffe told the London Evening Standard: ‘It’s going to be bizarre.

‘I’m going to be devastated. It’s going to be very, very sad because it’s been such an important part of my life.’

The young actors have become millionaires through the films and the series is the highest-grossing film franchise of all time, taking more than £3.7billion.

Producer David Heyman has said the crew is just shooting the final scenes now of Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, which will then be spit into two parts.

The first part will come out this November and the second next July.

As shooting came to an end, Radcliffe revealed that Harry Potter was not always his favourite role.

In a surprising confession the 20-year-star said he would have liked to have been cast as the superhero Spider-Man.

The film role of the web-slinging crime fighter went to American actor Tobey Maguire, with the first Spider-Man film in 2002 one of the most successful of all time.

'I was always unbelievably jealous of Tobey Maguire playing Spider-Man,' Radcliffe said.

'I do think Spidey is the coolest of superheroes.'
The boy wizard was recently voted the second greatest character ever created in TV and film over the last 20 years by US magazine Entertainment Weekly - losing out to Homer Simpson.

The five Potter films have also outperformed all three Spider-Man films at the box office.

But Radcliffe will be seen in the final two instalments of the Potter series created by author JK Rowling.

Radcliffe also said he would be 'devastated' when filming finished.

'There is nothing I watch without it triggering a series of memories. Everything [about the films] is so linked to my life. At the same time, it is exciting. It is the end,' he said.

Radcliffe said he had always found Potter interesting to play - even if he wasn't the coolest superhero.

Asked what makes Harry interesting, he said: 'That he's not perfect. He's capable of being quite arrogant, pigheaded and a little bit selfish.

'He can make himself something of a martyr when he really doesn't have to.

'All those characteristics are wonderful because it separates Harry from archetypal superheroes that you often get.'
