I could never do stand-up because it's that thing of having to get up on stage. And out of every 10 jokes you tell, nine of them have to get a really good response.

When I get into trouble at school I'd like to take an invisibility cloak, drape it over me and sneak out the door. Or I'd like to have a 3 headed-dog because then no one would argue with me.

I feel very English in a suit. There's something about being in a suit abroad, particularly in America, that feels empowering.

Image
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...
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
Image
It's mainly about working hard and proving to people you're serious about it, and stretching yourself and learning. The mistake a lot of actors make, particularly young ones, is allowing themselves to feel that they're the finished articles, the bee's knees, and it's not true.

I'd love to play Puck in 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.'

I still have issues around forgetting that it's my life and if I want to do something, I can do it.

Image
I would love to work in America. I wouldn't love to live there, but I'd love to experience working there.

Image
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.

There are two types of poets: People who write poetically about their lives, and poets that live poetically and write about it.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
With any kind of artistic thing, it's a muscle, like any athlete, and the moment you're not doing it, you lose all confidence. That's why I'm terrible with down time.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I will never, ever do a film as successful as the Harry Potter series. But neither will anyone else.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
Normally I sit there in the films really hating watching myself. Loving watching the films, hating watching myself.

In terms of drama school, what that will give you that you won't necessarily learn on a film set is the technical ability - ie, projecting your voice and stage craft.

Image
I get constantly mistaken for Elijah Wood.
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.
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.

My mom and dad were actors when they were younger and had a horrible experience of it. My dad became a literary agent and my mom a casting director.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I want to write and direct, but I don't think if I did it for 100 years I would ever come close to putting something out there that gives a feeling of all-encompassing and joyous.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
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.
