Interview with Daniel Radcliffe
MTV resource at the annual "Thanksgiving Week" has taken an interview with Daniel Radcliffe, "the actor, whom we are extremely grateful in 2011."
- Daniel, this is your first full year without Harry Potter. How has it passed?
"It was a great year, it was very successful. I have completed some projects that are now very proud, especially the musical "How to Succeed in Business without doing anything". The process of working on it, regular runs and rehearsals, as a result of I've been able to improve my game, gave me great pleasure. It was a cool year, but I think the next one will be even better. It will be released "The Woman in Black", and I still have planned a couple of projects. The next two or three years will be very important in my career, and if 2011 was not a watershed year in my life, it can be called just a start. "
- The most memorable event for you this year was ...?
"Definitely, speech at the ceremony of Tony Awards. We were the first who opened the ceremony and had a very strange feeling, preparing for the show. I was not nervous for a long time. Suddenly, a huge screen sails up, and you find yourself with the guys on stage for all to see and feel like a prize in a game-show, noting how at you from the front row watching Al Pacino, who sat next to Bobby Cannavale and Mark Raylens - all these wonderful actors - and you should now speak with your speech. It was probably the most surreal triumphant moment this year - performing at the Tony Awards. It was cool, and someday I will certainly tell about this to my grandchildren. "
- What have you learned about yourself and your abilities as an actor?
"I learned one very important thing, and I have yet to learn how to use it in my career, whether it be play, comedy or drama - the more I try to restrain and suppress my natural eccentricity, the worse I play. I'm pretty impetuous in my movements and jerk ... I realized that in the process of trying my best to be somebody else, and actually, I should learn to behave naturally on stage and in film. I have to understand the next lesson: Do not be shy of your strangeness. Enjoy it. "
- Would you like to star in a musical?
"Oh, yes, my doubts about participation in the" How to Succeed ... "was due to the fact that I was playing one role over the years I spent at Harry very long time. Now I want in track to be a lot of various characters. Yes, I really want to play in a musical. "
- Looking for Potter, and, remembering that after all you went through during the final part of the promotion of "Deathly Hallows," do you not remember anything unusual?
"Oh no, everything was as usual. During these crazy days when you have time to give a few interviews to go on the red carpet, talk to fans, you'll shut up slowly, turn on the autopilot and only beg that, by the end of promo tours are not go crazy. I was also a little bothered that I was not so upset as the others. One day I saw crying Rupert, it was the last day of filming, and when I was pretty sad, but I had never seen Rupert such emotional as he was at premiere ... I can no longer continue to talk about how I loved the time spent on the set of "Potter." It was the most amazing, happiest moments in my life, but all good things must end. We can’t do the same thing forever. And as long as the viewers will want from us that it will be terrible. I am very glad that I took part in the project, which ended on a good note, and that now, like everyone else I move forward. "
- You hope to continue cooperation with JK Rowling?
"Yes, very much hope so. With those who are directly and indirectly had a great influence on my life, of course, I hope. I do not know whether she is going to write anything else about Harry, and perhaps many years later I myself will shoot something about him - we did well with him to know each other. "
- Looking for 10 years ahead, how do you think, what will you do - your best and worst-case scenario?
"My worst nightmare that in 10 years later I do not work at all and do nothing. Even if after 5 years, I suddenly decide to leave the film industry and become an archaeologist, well, that would be cool. The best scenario, over 10 years I will be behind some great movies, I do not know exactly how much ... well, if we assume that the eight parts of the "Potter" we rented for 10 years, will double this number ... say, 16 pictures? Who knows?”
