Sky Arts released a new poster featuring Daniel Radcliffe and Jon Hamm in their upcoming miniseries,
A Young Doctor's Notebook, in which they portray the same physician at different ages; that can be seen here. The series is set to debut on British television this December, and can already be
pre-ordered on
Amazon.co.uk.
The first on set report from Dan's current project,
Horns, was published by
The Province this week, where the actor discussed how easy it was to put on the prosthetic horns, and how much he enjoyed the story. Dan also discussed his work in other films, and carrying on an as actor beyond
Harry Potter. The set report comes the same day Dan shot scenes at a cemetery in Vancouver, photos of which can be found
here.
“Prosthetics are amazing these days, this is like a transfer tattoo — they just peel the backing off and it sticks,” the 23-year-old actor said.
“It’s a metamorphosis story, but the thing that excited me was that tonally it wasn’t like anything I had read,” he says.
“It was both incredibly dark — like really dark and violent, and full of classic horror stuff — but also it has a very dry sense of humour.”
“The nature of the horns means that any time I meet somebody, they end up telling me their deepest, darkest revelations. So even a small scene like this becomes incredibly intense.”
As to that American accent, “there are certain words — murderer is a hard word to say because there’s so many... Rs in it, and girlfriend. Now, unfortunately those are two of the words I use most in this movie.”
On the various projects he shot this year, including A Young Doctor's Notebook, The F Word, and Kill Your Darlings:
“They’re all really different, they’re all interesting and weird, or have something weird about them,” Radcliffe says. “I feel like the best work I have done yet in my career, I have done this year.”
“I’m pretty untested outside of Potter as far as a lot of people know. I’ve done Equus and I’ve done How to Succeed, but directors who haven’t seen those plays won’t know that stuff.”
On how much Dan transformed throughout the Harry Potter series and the tips he got from former costar Alan Rickman:
“Alan was big on teaching me, definitely. He took me out a couple of times and gave me some notes afterwards. He’s a really big supporter.”
“By the time you see the finished product, so much time has passed that you are a different person and a different actor,” he says.
“I’ll always look at it and go, ‘Man, if I could just do that now.’ It was after about the fifth film that you can see me start to turn into more of an actor. But you know, I don’t think that process is ever complete.”
