DANIEL RADCLIFFE READY TO MOVE ON FROM HARRY POTTER

After five Harry Potter films, Daniel Radcliffe is ready for different acting challenges.

Daniel Radcliffe grew up on screen as the bespectacled boy of wizardry in the Harry Potter series and after five films of attending Hogwarts School he’s ready for new challenges.

Daniel says Harry Potter And The Order of The Phoenix finally gave him the opportunity to prove his acting skills.

“It amazes people for some reason that after five films I’d still be enjoying it but I do and on the fifth more than any of the others I had the best time simply because of the acting challenges that were around. David was a perfect director because I was really up for sinking my teeth into the part this time.”

Daniel says he’s already set the wheels in motion for several acting projects that have nothing to do with casting spells and fighting dark lords.

“I would never want to just completely distance myself from Harry because I’m incredibly proud of the films particularly this one and I loved playing Harry. But yeah it is important to me to show that I can do other roles and hopefully Equus was a step towards showing people that and so will hopefully the other films. I’m doing a film later this year for TV, and another film will be coming out later this year I did in Australia called December Boys. So hopefully people will start to see me as an actor rather than the actor who plays Harry Potter.”

Of course there’s two more films to be made, Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince, and the final chapter Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows.
