Emma Watson’s no tattoo stand: Did it crush Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe’s dreams

Daniel Radcliffe, along with Rupert Grint, was toying with the idea of immortalizing their magical journey with a subtle tribute – a tattoo reminiscent of Harry’s iconic lightning scar. This symbolic mark would stand as a testament to their shared experiences, a tactile memory of the realms they traversed as actors and friends. As Rupert Grint revealed, “There was talk between us about doing something like a tattoo. It would have been something subtle like Harry’s lightning scar. It would’ve been a great way of marking the end of filming.”

The disappointment and the reason

Yet the inked tribute was not to be. Despite the allure of body art, Emma Watson’s polite yet firm refusal dimmed the prospects. A lover of tattoos on others, her personal boundaries eclipsed the collective sentiment, explaining, “I love tattoos. But I love them on other people... I don’t think I could pull it off. My own self-image would not allow it.” This unanticipated response set a domino effect, leading to Daniel Radcliffe too setting aside the idea, prioritizing his professional commitments over personal desires, he reflected, “I’ve got to get a sustained series of jobs where I don’t have to get naked.”
