Quote

I was in the bath at the time, and my dad came running in and said, 'Guess who they want to play Harry Potter!?' and I started to cry. It was probably the best moment of my life.

I sort of try to read the books when they come out impartially and not make up my mind, but the fact is when I was reading the sixth, 'Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince', there were bits in there where I was going, 'God, I would love to do that because it's so good'.

I always feel that if you put me in a room with a director and a writer and let me talk about the script, I can give a good account of myself.

Those things [t hydraulic penises and prosthetic butts and all that] can be what's genuinely shocking about the movie [Swiss Army Man] because people wouldn't expect to be moved by any of it.

Image
I absolutely don't relate to being beaten down my whole life - I had amazing opportunities at a young age - but there is still in many, many people's minds the notion that I'll never be able to escape Harry Potter.

To be honest, I would like to have worked with Peter Sellers, because when people talk about classic British actors, you talk about Lawrence Olivier, and Peter Sellers was just in the most amazing films.

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.

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.

I don't think of those things [from farting, to male on male affection, to crossdressing] as being taboo, I suppose, so it didn't strike me as, Oh, I'm breaking boundaries and stuff...

Directing is more what I would like to get into eventually. Frankly, I feel like it would be a waste if I didn't because I've spent so much time on film sets, and I know how they work, and I love them, and I love leading them. I would like to do that as a director definitely.

If you like the book, you'll hate the movie.

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 was having a hard time at school, in terms of being crap at everything, with no discernible talent.

Image
In my experience of doing physical scenes, half of your energy is spent on trying to get the other actor to enter into it physically with you. Most actors don't want to hurt each other.

I'm not too worried about humanity in the future. I think we've got an innate ability as a species to self-correct.

I might like to be an actor, but there are loads of other things I'm interested in as well, like music and writing and sports. I want to keep my options open.

I get constantly mistaken for Elijah Wood.

I'm not clumsy, I'm just accident prone.
Daniel Radcliffe

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.

I have no idea how much money I've got.

I think honesty is the most heroic quality one can aspire to.
