| | |  Dan Radcliffe talks acting, poetry & more in new interview
In a new interview from the September issue of Vogue magazine, Daniel Radcliffe speaks about the many aspects of his life, including his early acting experience, his poetry, the expectations of his new co-stars before meeting him, and his mindset when talking to the media.
Upon meeting co-stars when beginning work on new acting projects, Dan says: Quote:
“They’re always expecting some terrible person to turn up,” Radcliffe told the September issue of Vogue magazine. “So you try to make sure that they know that you’re intelligent and not horrible. Then you try to be rugged and sexy – but only after smart and lovable.”
Dan mentions his early acting experience, including his mother's initial discouragement, and her eventual choice to let her then-young son try out for movie roles: Quote:
Radcliffe, who will shortly begin his first-ever run on Broadway, reprising his role in “Equus,” told the magazine he was originally discouraged from pursuing the acting craft by his mother. She changed her mind however, allowing him to audition for a television version of “David Copperfield” in his native Britain, after he ran into educational trouble.
“I was having a hard time at school, in terms of being crap and everything with no discernible talent,” he said.
Dan reflects upon the various comments and anecdotes he has told the media over the years, where he quips about what he does not state aloud: Quote:
“A friend of mine once said, ‘God—the things you say!’” Radcliffe noted. “I thought, ‘Imagine the things I don’t say.’ You can’t possibly imagine what it’s like to actually live inside this head.”
Dan muses affectionately on his love for writing poetry: Quote:
“Poetry’s this wonderful, sort of secret thing you’ve got going that you don’t tell anybody about,” he said. “Unless, or course, it’s published or you talk to a journalist about it. Acting has confines; poetry has none.”
Equus begins its Broadway run September 5, 2008; and H arry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince releases to theatres November 21, 2008.

I would now like to retract every bad thought that I have ever had about Dan Radcliffe.
He seems like a top bloke.

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
