Daniel Radcliffe participated in a live interview with New York City radio station
WOR Radio 710HD earlier this morning.
In it, Dan speaks about how much better the
Equus production on Broadway is this year than the West End shows; how rarely he and Richard Griffiths worked together on the
Harry Potter set compared to
Equus; and his character Alan Strang and the relationship he has with his parents and horses.
He mentions that after seeing a pantomime production of
Aladdin at the age of five he wanted to be an actor, which he told his mother (who immediately said "no, you don't"). When being cast for
Harry Potter, Dan said that he first read lines two months before he was cast; he also expressed his and everyone else's surprise at the film series' success.
Dan praises the American audience for their reaction and understanding of the play compared to the British viewers. In regards to the
Equus on-stage seats, Dan states that he doesn't acknowledge them during the play as they're elevated twelve feet high, and therefore aren't a distraction for him.
On
Deathly Hallows, Dan says that the 14-month shoot begins February 2009 and ends around April/May 2010, and that it will have more on-location filming than the previous six movies.
