| | | Dan Radcliffe talks Equus & Potter
In a new interview with the Associated Press, Dan Radcliffe has spoken in great length about his role as Alan Strang in Equus. He also compliments his co-star, Richard Griffiths, who returns the favour and finishes by discussing Harry Potter and his future. Quote:
"There are a lot of actors who think you can just go on stage and do it — you can't," he says. "You need to project. You can give the most amazing performance on stage but if the audience can't hear you, then it's useless."
"I am a lot more confident about (my voice) being heard now. In London, that was more of a worry. Now there's room for me to do ... to play around with the words and put more color into them, sort of a musicality, to try and give every word its individual identity, I suppose.
"Maybe I am more relaxed this time. I think it's just the fact that I have grown up in the year and a half since we (last) did it," he says. "The other night I got a line wrong, which, for me, was like a dagger because I don't like doing it."
Quote:
"When you are at the curtain call, smile," he says. "I really object to it when I am sitting there in the theater, watching actors who are in a great play — and they come out and don't smile at the curtain call. I think: 'You are lucky enough to be in a really brilliant play, now show some appreciation for the fact that you are there. Enjoy it.' We're doing 'Equus' and we smile. If you can smile at the end of 'Equus,' anyone should be able to."
Quote:
"I am sure I will be knackered but I adore filming on 'Potter,'" he says. "I can't wait to get back there."
"In 10 years time, I've no clue where I'll be," Radcliffe says. "Hopefully, still acting. If I'm still acting and still enjoying it, I will be happy. I feel pretty certain that will be the case."
Equus is now into previews on Broadway and opens on September 25th. |

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.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

Is it me, or does it seem like he's tired of talking about Equus and Harry Potter?

God, he must be sick of saying the same stuff over and over; however, he still seems very obliging to me. He is good at what he does.

He does have a point about this whole thing about smiling, some actors seem to be really miserable when they are acting!

I so agree with what he said about the smiling thing. Glad he still likes doing Potte and can't wait to fo back. He will still be acting in 10 years and I'll still be whatching ever moment I can.
