Time for Kids interviews Daniel Radcliffe -
the star behind Harry Potter Summary:
Time for Kids has another interview with Daniel, with some brand new information and several original questions.
Article: Time for Kids interviews Daniel Radcliffe Time for Kids Online has posted an
interview with Dan aka Harry Potter in their "Who's News" section to mark the release of
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. The interview does look similar to others but there are new questions and answers within it, which I shall highlight in quotes.
Quote:
TFK: How did you originally land the role of Harry?*
Daniel: I was at the theater one night, and David Heyman, the producer, was in the row in front of us completely by coincidence. He knew my dad from work, and he eventually asked me to audition. I did about four auditions for the part, and then I just got it. It happened very fast.*
Quote:
TFK: Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy), said he’d be in Slytherin.*
Daniel: Tom really likes the idea of being a bad boy in Slytherin, you see.
Quote:
TFK: But he said he’s actually nice in real life.
*
Daniel: Yes, he is. He’s a cool, cool guy.*
Quote:
TFK: Are your real-life friends similar to Ron and Hermione?*
Daniel: (Laughs) I don’t really think so! I don’t know if they’d thank me if I said they were like Hermione, either. Although I do know somebody who is quite like Neville Longbottom, but I won’t tell you his name.*
Quote:
TFK: How many times did you see the first two movies?*
Daniel: We have a ritual each year. The first time I see this third film, it will just be me, David Heyman, my mum and my dad. Then I’ll have a screening for all of my family and friends. And then I’ll go to the premieres. There are two premieres. So I see each film about four times. It gets very tiring after a while.*
Quote:
TFK: Do you find that you’re critical of yourself?
*
Daniel: When you see the movie for the fourth time, you start to notice everything, and you start to go, 'Darn, why did I do that then?'*
Quote:
I see myself on boxes and things, which is really weird. But other than that, it hasn’t really changed at all.*
