| | | Video: Daniel Radcliffe talks Deathly Hallows: Part 2, Woman in Black on Early Show
Daniel Radcliffe continued his promotion of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part: 2 on CBS's Early Show in New York City on Tuesday morning, discussing what the end of the saga felt like for him, and continuing his work, including The Woman in Black, set to be released in January 2012. That interview with Dan, which contained a few on-set glimpses of the actor as Arthur Kipps in his upcoming supernatural thriller, can be viewed below. He said, "It wasn't that I was moved because of nostalgia or my personal connection with the series, the filming of it -- it was sadness because I was moved by the film."
The star called the series is "incredibly compelling."
"You want to know the truth of it all," he said. "That what's so good about J.K. Rowling's writing, is that no characters were sacred. I think that's what made it so good. I was quite keen for Harry to die. I couldn't see of another way of the series ending. That's why I don't write them and she does. She's more imaginative than I am."
"I probably won't watch any of the other ones until I have kids. I can sit them down and start the whole thing over with them."
"I regard myself as having grown up on sets and then at home," he said. "I still did all my embarrassing teenage moments behind closed doors, thankfully, so the world wasn't privy to them, luckily."
Over the years, Radcliffe established made close ties with co-stars Rupert Grint and Emma Watson. Radcliffe said of the trio, "Nobody else in the world know(s) quite what it's like to go through all of this from a young age, and go through this mad, surreal, wonderful world for 10 years. We grew up on set together. Rupert and I just laugh all the time together. Emma and I are quite a good foil for each other. We have some great debates on set; you know; she's a smart cookie, so I had my work cut out for me."
He said, "I just wanted to say thank-you to everybody, but not just thank-you, because in a very real sense, I do love them in the way that you love a family, and have been there to support you every day for 10 years."
Radcliffe continued, "One of the French King Louis, I'm not sure which one, since I lose track after a certain point -- his last word were, he turned to all the people around him and said, 'Why are you crying, did you imagine I was immortal?' It's that same thing; it's like it had to end sometime, and we may as well celebrate it instead of getting too sad."
He said, "I'm on Broadway at the moment, it's an incredibly fun show, and I get to work with incredibly fun people, which means I get to play and have fun every night. I have a film coming out next year called 'The Woman in Black' that comes out (in the U.S.) on January 20. I'm excited for people to see it. It's a supernatural thriller. I think people are going to see a different side of me, I hope."
He said, "People have an image of actors or anyone that is in the public eye that, when you meet them, that they are going horrible or very intimidating. I don't think I'm any of those things. I consider myself very, very boring and very, very normal. I guess that would be the thing that surprises people the most, is that there is not much to me that is very surprising."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Amelia Godwood Fourth Year | -Jumps for joy- I love Dan, he just seems so down to earth, he certainly didn't let fame get to his head.
Im excited to see his new film, Women in Black, but I have to admit, Dan, you don't look good with side-burns... :$
His new film almost looks like a rendition of Sherlock Holmes? Dan's film looks to be in the same time period as Sherlock Holmes, anyways, Excited sums everything up for me !

Dan just always sounds so put together and wise in his interviews. It's very endearing to see that in someone so young! It's always a mixture of humor, sarcasm, and intelligence with him, love it!
