Film Harry Potter’s actor Robbie Coltrane, who played Hagrid, passes away at 72

Actor Robbie Coltrane, who played Hagrid in the Harry Potter films, has died at 72, The Hollywood Reporter reported. Robbie Coltrane, was one of Britain’s most popular comedians who played in two James Bond films and in the “Harry Potter” franchise.

British actor Daniel Radcliffe, who played the role of Harry Potter, and JK Rowling, the author of Harry Potter books, shared heartfelt tributes remembering the late Coltrane.

Radcliffe said, “Robbie was one of the funniest people I’ve met and used to keep us laughing constantly as kids on the set”.

Coltrane and Radcliffe starred together in all eight ‘Harry Potter’ movies, right from the ‘Sorcerer’s Stone’ in 2001 to ‘Death Hallows – Part 2’ in 2011.

He added, “I’ve especially fond memories of him keeping our spirits up on ‘Prisoner of Azkaban,’ when we were all hiding from the torrential rain for hours in Hagrid’s hut and he was telling stories and cracking jokes to keep morale up. I feel incredibly lucky that I got to meet and work with him and very sad that he’s passed. He was an incredible actor and a lovely man.”
