The 45-year-old author JK Rowling told Oprah Winfrey: ‘Michael Jackson wanted to do a musical. I said “no” to a lot of things.

45歲的JK羅琳上奧普拉節(jié)目接受采訪時透露：“邁克爾·杰克遜本來還想做一個哈利波特的音樂劇。很多衍生合作我都拒絕了。”

'For me, I love the films, I love the books and there’s elements that I love around it... like the theme park. But I only wanted to do it because I knew it would be incredible.’

“對于我來說，我很喜歡這些電影，很愛書，還有一些周邊的元素我都很喜歡，像主題公園什么的。不過我想做這些完全是因?yàn)槲抑浪麄儠馨??！?/div>
During her chat with Oprah, JK also hinted that the door may not be closed on the idea of more Potter books, admitting that she cried uncontrollably when she finished final instalment Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows.

在和奧普拉的聊天中，羅琳還暗示說續(xù)寫波特系列并不是不可能實(shí)現(xiàn)的空想，她承認(rèn)說寫完最后一部《哈利波特與死亡圣徒》的時候自己難以控制地大哭了一場。

'I could definitely write an eighth, ninth, tenth,' she revealed. 'I’m not going to say I won’t. I don’t think I will … I feel I am done, but you never know.'
“我當(dāng)然能接著寫第八本、第九、第十的，我不想說我不寫，雖然我不覺得自己會想再寫，我感到已經(jīng)寫到點(diǎn)子上了，不過誰知道以后呢。”

World renowned author Rowling has sold more than 400 million books since she began writing the saga, leading her to compare her popularity, at its peak, as 'like being a Beatle'.

全球知名的作家羅琳自打開始寫哈利波特系列以來，就已經(jīng)售出了4億多本書，而其知名度和人氣堪比披頭士樂隊。

Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 1 is set to be released in UK cinemas this November, with Part II out in July 2011.

《哈利波特與死亡圣徒》上部的電影將于11月上映，而下部大結(jié)局則將于2011年7月公映。
