The actor told [_Digital Spy_](http://www.digitalspy.com/tv/game-of-thrones/news/a808541/daniel-radcliffe-wants-to-be-on-game-of-thrones-bring-me-in-and-fking-kill-me/) that he’s enjoying his post-_Harry Potter_ flexibility. “Right now, I have a little bit of freedom.” He continued, “I’ve recently read a couple of really good TV pilot scripts, but then it’s signing on for seven years.” But of course, Radcliffe is, it might not surprise you, extremely down for a brief stint on _Game of Thrones_. “I would love to,” he said. “If they want to just bring me in and f–king kill me, I would be so happy to do that.” He wouldn’t be the first _Harry Potter_ movie vet to make the leap from the films to the HBO series.

Rowling’s book series—will play an important role in the show’s upcoming seventh season, making him one of [eight actors](http://time.com/4475149/game-of-thrones-harry-potter-crossovers-jim-broadbent/) who have starred in both beloved franchises.
