Post Dan Radcliffe talks about his role in 'Extras' (UPDATED)

In conjunction with the start of the new series of 'Extras', DanRadcliffe.com has spoken to the actor exclusively about his role in the comedy show. They have also confirmed that Dan's episode will be aired on BBC2 at 9PM on September 28th. This is after the watershed, and as such means that the programme is NOT suitable for younger fans (parents are advised to either watch it themselves first, or watch it with their children).

He reveals how the opportunity came about;

Quote:
"They saw me on the Jonathan Ross show and said, 'Hey, he’d be great.' And so they contacted my agent and it all sort of went from there.

I agreed to do it because I was such a fan of Ricky Gervais and the series of Extras. I agreed before I had seen a script or anything. I knew the vague outline for it, but I hadn’t actually seen the dialogue and stuff.

I remember I was in Australia and my dad and I had to talk to him about it because he wanted to just chat with me about it. I called him and we chatted for half an hour about the episode. It was a really great moment for me to talk to him.

A couple of months later we were sent the script. It was great - and it was very, very funny. I filmed it a couple of weeks ago."
He also goes into detail about how he's portrayed in the episode;

Quote:
"I play a very, very warped version of myself in a scouts uniform," Daniel laughs, "because obviously they couldn’t do references to Harry Potter for legal reasons, so they had to put me in a scouts uniform. They couldn’t have me in a school outfit or anything. The scouts uniform looks absolutely ridiculous and very, very funny. I play this very obnoxious teenage boy who endlessly flirts with everybody he sees.

It should be very, very funny, but there is this whole other story in the episode, which I think is also very funny."
The rest, in which he talks about what it was like to shoot, can be read here.

Additionally, to coincide with the start of the new series, several television magazines have featured Dan in the publicity. Scans of these features can also be seen at the above link.

UPDATE: Page from DanRadcliffe.co.uk also spoke to Dan about the role. The interview, along with a sound clip and scans from magazine features can be seen here.

I tried to watch extras once but turned it off because I just didn't find it funny at all. I find Ricky Jervais very annoying and he seems to have a huge ego! I will watch to see how Dan does but under suffrance!

^ I agree. Ricky Gervais made a joke at Live 8 (London) which was in very poor taste and I've disliked him ever since. The show isn't much cop either, but I'll watch it out of curiosity and for Dan.

I watched the trailer for this episode, and let me just say.... it was hysterical, it didn't just have Dan's part, there was a part in there with Orlando Bloom as well equally as funny!!
