I'm somebody who is very, very proud to have been a part of the British film industry all my life and to have kind of been involved with a very important piece of British film history.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
It's important to say that the more challenging a scene is, in a way, the more fun it is because the more of my job I get to do.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I think that the process of making a film is an underrated factor in how that film turns out.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I still have issues around forgetting that it's my life and if I want to do something, I can do it.
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.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
If you're having a bad day, get on with your job, because you having a bad day can affect everyone around you.

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.

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
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.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
My taste in the films I've taken as an actor is similar to what I'd do a director or writer: all quite odd, challenging stuff, slightly off-the-wall.
Daniel Radcliffe
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
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
Because of the life I've had, I'd grown up quicker than most people.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I have a very busy personality.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
Go boldly and honestly through the world. Learn to love the fact that there is nobody else quite like you.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
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.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I would love to work in America. I wouldn't love to live there, but I'd love to experience working there.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
I don't think that you necessarily need a certain type of background to take on roles. You see actors from very, very privileged backgrounds playing working class characters and vice-versa. I don't think your background limits you as to what you can do.

A friend often says I'm an old man in a young man's husk. I like that. I am old-fashioned in some ways.

I don't want to say I'll never play someone with a cockney accent, but I think I would be irritated by me doing it.
