I didn't have that normal teenage period when you build up your friends in your area and you have a social circle.

I had one relative who passed away but fortunately none others. So my sort of experience of it is quite limited, thankfully.

I know I'm not a coal miner, but I do long hours and I never complain, and there is nowhere else I'd rather be. So, yeah, that's how I'd define myself. I want to do it right, and prove people wrong once and for all about the myth of child stars.

When actors aren't filming they just go to their dressing rooms and relax.
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

We would choreograph [ with Paul Dano] before each scene [in Swiss Army Man] and very quickly got to a place where we could improvise physically in scene and know that the other person would respond in character appropriately. So that [dynamic] was a lot of fun.

Potter for me is something that's been giving me these amazing opportunities to start a career and learn while I'm doing, which is the best way to learn.
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'm not clumsy just accident prone.
Daniel Radcliffe
Image
There's no shame in enjoying a quiet life. And that's been the realization of the past few years for me.

A gay murder movie is never going to be, like, breaking box office records.
Daniel Radcliffe

I'm possibly a very morbid person but I think about death a lot.
