I used to joke I was a point-and-click actor. My whole process has been about trusting your instincts and hitting your mark.

It's interesting for myself, growing up as an Asian-American filmmaker. Coming into the industry, my parents always said, No one's going to give you the opportunity. You just have to do the work. Be better than everyone else, so they can't deny it.

I'm never going to be in something as commercially successful as 'Harry Potter' ever again. It's impossible. So that gives me incredible freedom to go off and make the slightly off-the-wall films that I want to make.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I've always had, like, from the age of about 11, I've had such an intolerance for bad behaviour of actors that I don't think I was ever going to be that person.

Image
Poetry is something I love to do. Good poetry has an amazing ability to be communicative before it's even understood. I get emotional just from the beauty of words.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I've always thought that as long as directors and casting directors don't see me as just Harry Potter, I'll be OK. People have shown a lot of faith in me, and I owe them a huge debt. They're letting me prove that I'm serious about this.

What I learned is that acting is to a large extent about trying to stave off self-doubt long enough to be natural and real onstage.

I'm sure when I have a nostalgic, teary moment in 10 years time, I'll try to put the glasses when I was 10 on and cry to myself in front of the mirror

I used to be self conscious about my height, but then I thought, f*** that, I'm Harry Potter.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I am a frighteningly thorough person.

As an actor, there is room for a certain amount of creativity, but you're always ultimately going to be saying somebody else's words. I don't think I'd have the stamina, skill or ability to write a novel, but I'd love to write short stories and poetry, because those are my two passions.

I love just going out and sitting down in the park along with the thousands of other people who apparently have no work to do during the day. People come up to me, but they are generally really nice. New York makes it easier, for me at least. People manage to be enthusiastic and sort of sane at the same time. And that’s lovely.

People do incredible things for love, particularly for unrequited love.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I definitely want to go on acting for as long as I can find employment. I'm never happier than when I'm on a film set. I just want to keep working.
Daniel Radcliffe

My preparation is mainly just knowing the lines and getting in and knowing where your character is, knowing what it's about and having ideas that you can put in on the day.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I haven’t always been thrilled with my work. But the fear of not proving the people wrong who think you can’t emerge from a franchise and do well, that’s a very strong driving force.

If you're having a bad day, get on with your job, because you having a bad day can affect everyone around you.

When you're in the position I'm in, you have two options: you can either shut yourself off from everybody, from the world, and not live a full life. Or you welcome everybody into your life and occasionally somebody will try to take advantage.

I have a very busy personality.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I was very sad to leave Harry Potter but equally there will be an element of excitement about the idea that a script might come in and I don't have to go: I'm sorry, I'm kind of busy for the next four years. The idea of that is quite exciting.

Everyone on the set has a mobile phone, and I found by pushing a few buttons, they could be programmed into different languages. I fixed Robbie's Coltrane to speak in Turkish.
