New 'Harry Potter' Featurette Released: Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe And Rupert Grint Tearful On-Set Goodbyes

We've been inundated with a lot of shorts, clips and montages but this one is different.

Apple released a featurette from 'Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallow Part 2' showing our favorite wizards on their last day of filming.

"I just want to say I love this place. This has been my life," Daniel Radcliffe says on set. "I don't know what my day to day life consists of without you. All of you. I just want to say I've loved every minute and I thank you all very, very much for making that possible."

A tearful group hug between Daniel, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint fades into a clip of the three at their first reading, 10 years earlier.

Potter fans break out your hankies, this one is a doozy.

I was never a fan, but it is great to see kids reading. Anything that gets kids reading!

The series might be over but it will not be forgotten for many generations to come. The Harry Potter novels will be in the hearts and minds of people for many years and beyond just like The Chronicles of Narnia and The Lord of the Rings. Who knows maybe in another say 50 years or so they might actually do a remake of the movie but it will never beat the original cast which were fantastic.

This series was blessed from the start with excellent casting. It's very gratifying to see young actors grow up in such prominent roles, and yet retain a measure of humility and gratefulness for their good fortune, and not fall prey to the typical star narcissism.

I didn't know that Emma Watson was Jewish. Nothing wrong with that, just surprised.

When the first book came out, I bought it for my daughter.......I ended up being the one in the family that became the fan. I could not wait for each book to come out, and cried reading the last one.

I bought the first book for my then 11-year old daughter and glanced at it to see what all the fuss was about. Had a buy a second copy for myself the next day. Since then, I had two sons who also read every book and adored them, as well as the movies.

I take solace in the fact that one day I'll have the joy of watching my grandchildren discover the books and movies (my daughter is now 25).

P.S.
I cried too while reading the last book.

I will admit that I must have teared up at least three or four times when I watched this movie earlier this week. Such an overwhelming visual and emotional experience.

I did too, and then I laughed at myself for crying!

What a great movie and I want to say reading is fundamental.

I love reading and Harry Potter is one of the series I love.

I'm trying not to go and watch the movie a fourth time or re-read the books.

I'm moving on. I wonder if R.A Salvatore will consider his Drizzit series be made into movies?

Watched the ending on opening day and cried. This amazing story spanned 10 years of our lives, as well! Watching these young people grow up before our eyes, getting to experience the magical acting of such greats as Alan Rickman and getting one last glimpse of greats such as Richard Harris. Thanks to all for the magic and the memories. I look forward to seeing the incredible path that lies ahead for these three amazing young people, in particular.

The world is coming to an end. No more Harry, no more space shuttle, no more dollar once House Republicans crash the economy.
