Daniel Radcliffe’s tendency to prank his fellow Harry Potter cast-mates often added levity to the set, but there was at least one time when his antics went a little too far.
Reportedly, Robbie Coltrane, who portrayed Hagrid in the films, was once a victim of a prank where the young actor changed the settings on his friend’s phone from English to Turkish. The joke seems harmless enough—except that Coltrane was left unable to make calls!
The infuriated actor had a hard time finding anyone on set who could change the settings of his phone back to English, and Radcliffe was left feeling understandably sheepish about what he had done. Coltrane remembers the event clearly:
Eventually we found a girl in the Harry Potter make-up department who was Turkish Cypriot. She phoned her mum and was chatting away in great detail until they sorted it out. I think Daniel was so upset at what had happened that he wrote me that note...'Dear Mr. Coltrane, I'm sorry I changed your mobile telephone into Turkish...
Have you ever been part of a prank gone too far? Let us know in the comments!

We had previously reported that Harry Potter director David Yates - who lead the charge for the final four Potter films - was slated to direct the new film from Warner Brothers, Your Voice in My Head. Unfortunately, due to a personal issue involving the health of a family member, he has opted to step down as director for this film.
Your Voice in My Head, which will star Harry Potter actress Emma Watson as the lead character, is based on Emma Forrest's memoir. The film is still planned to proceed with production and chronicles Forrest's [Watson] troublesome and self-harming behavior, as well as her relationship with her psychiatrist. Stanley Tucci is slated to portray the role of Emma's psychiatrist.
An article from Deadline reported the David Yates was forced to drop out of the film after asking to delay filming the project until his family's health issue was resolved. However, the writers and producers did not wish to wait on his return.
The film would have been Yates' first return to directing since taking off on a well-deserved break after completing the final Potter film. The report from Deadline did state, however, that Yates may now take on the director's chair in the film The Reliable Wife. However, this is only rumored at this time.
