“I was in 'Harry Potter,' and nobody on the street recognizes me from that. Nobody on the street has ever stopped me from 'Harry Potter!'”

Meaning

This reads as a dry joke about visibility and fame, or the lack of it. The point is not disappointment, but the oddness of being part of something huge and still remaining ordinary in public. It lands when someone expects recognition from a big project, yet discovers that many people simply move past without noticing.
