As a result of the suicide, Samuel's widow changed her name from Gershon to Gresham. On his father's side, Radcliffe investigated his great-great uncles – four brothers – who had all fought in World War I; great-great uncle Ernie, in particular, was examined through a large number of letters he had written home over a two-year period.

A year later, Radcliffe starred in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the second installment of the series. Reviewers were positive about the lead actors' performances but had polarising opinions on the film overall. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) was the third film in the series. Radcliffe's performance was criticised by The New York Times film critic A. O. Scott, who felt that co-star Emma Watson had to carry him with her performance.{{cite news |title=Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban: Film review |work=The New York Times |first=A.

The future of the franchise was put into question when Radcliffe, Watson, and co-star Rupert Grint hesitated to sign on to continue their roles.
