| | |  Quote of the Week - Daniel Radcliffe
The LA Times recently spoke to Daniel Radcliffe on the set of Deathly Hallows. They have today released his comments about The Hobbit and why he isn't interested in the project. Quote:
"I'd have to say, 'Thanks but no thanks,' not that anyone has asked me," the 20-year-old actor told me last week in England. "Honestly, I don't think they would want me anyway, it's just too close. Whatever I do next, I don't think there will be any wizards in it!"
"James McAvoy is fantastic. I think he should play it. I've done the fantasy-film thing. Actually, so has he, with the 'Chronicles of Narnia,' of course. But I've done it for longer. He can take over. I'm done. I don't think anybody involved in that would want me to, either."

All the rumours on Hobbit Movie News and Information - TheOneRing.net - Forged by the Fans of J.R.R. Tolkien lead you to believe that Dan Radcliffe and James McAvoy and David Tennant are all neck and neck in starring in the Hobbit. Mr. Tennant has stated that he is a "no." And now, for the record, Dan has stated the same. So who, i wonder, will portray Bilbo?

What I understood was that he's tired of making fantasy, which admittedly, is rather understandable considering that he's beeng doing it for an entire decade. 
But YAY for James McAvoy. I like him. =)

The way that Dan talks about no more wizard stuff is kinda sad... James is very good looking he should go for it!

I don't think Dan should totally rule out doing any more magic films.

I think Dan doesnt want the role of Bilbo Baggins, if it were offered to him, because he doesnt want to be typecast AND he wants to expand his acting repertoire in a variety of directions (i.e., Equus anyone?). Also, James McAvoy, from what I can tell, has not been offered the role as of right this very moment. His name was simply one of three being tossed around as good for the part....

I think that it's good that Daniel is moving away from the whole Fantasy Genre,
It'd be awful to be asscociated only with one type of acting
Good choice, Daniel!

I have to say I’m glad it’s not Dan I don’t see him in that role. James would be good though I think, but I’m not sure if that's who they will go for. | |

James would be good! He was great in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and in Penelope (those are the only movies i've seen with him in it). He would be great as Bilbo in The Hobbit! I agree with Dan!

the only reason he's been connected to this project at all is cause of his height and because he looks quite like elijah wood. Go Dan!
