Parade Magazine Feature on Dan Radcliffe

The new issue of Parade magazine, carried in many weekend editions of US newspapers, will feature actor Dan Radcliffe. There is a new interview with the actor now online, as well as these new photos seen via this link. In the piece, Dan discusses taking on the role in the stage production of Equus, dating, fame and fortune, as well as aging while doing the Harry Potter films.

It will shock nobody that Radcliffe is a spectacularly sensible and
articulate young man. Just like Harry. Over the years, he admits, it’s
been hard to tell where Harry leaves off and he begins. “When I started
out at the age of 10 or 11′ he says, “I was essentially saying the
lines as I myself would say them. When I became aware that that’s what
I was doing, at 13 or 14, it didn’t make sense to change, because it
would suddenly be a dramatic shift in the character.” He smiles. When
his mother read the sixth Harry Potter book, he remembers,
she noticed that “Harry argues in the kind of irritating, pedantic way
that I argue. She thought Harry and I were getting closer and closer
together at that point.”
…

And what about the prospect of”gulp”turning 20 next month? “I’ve noticed I make noises when I get up and sit down now’ Radcliffe
says in all seriousness. “I mean, my knees are rotten bad”I refused to
wear knee pads too many times when I was doing stunts, and I just
clobbered them up a bit. I am an old man in a young man’s body.”

Finally, be sure to take what they are calling “The Ultimate Harry Potter Quiz.” This issue of Parade will be in newspapers this weekend. Thanks much Vicki!
