Daniel Radcliffe in The Manila Times

HPANA has an interview from the Manila Times which has recently interviewed Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter.)

Here are some interesting quotes:

Q: Is there a sense of loss not having Richard Harris around?

Daniel: There is that. I do miss Richard because he was Richard, I loved him. But Michael Gambon, I can’t think of anyone better to stand in. Like on his first day, he came out with the costume and beard and the way he walked and talked in an Irish accent was a tribute to Richard, really good. He is going to be great.

Q: Can you tell us about your friendship with Emma and Rupert?

Daniel: The bond just keeps getting stronger and stronger. We do have arguments—err, heated discussions—I mean. We never argue! Okay, we do argue sometimes, about stuff like making a crazy golf course out of card-board. There is a circular saw in Rupert’s room at the moment which I got. I’m like the scrounger, I can get you anything.

Q: There seems to be a more modern look for Harry and friends?

Daniel: We still have the uniforms, but everything is a lot more broken down, as you can see (gestures to the jeans and top he is wearing), this is particularly broken because a huge dog has dragged me. Another thing that Alfonso said at the beginning was that he asked what kind of things Harry would wear and we went through it.

Q: Do you think the movie version of Harry has deviated from the original book in any way?

Daniel: Off the top of my head, I can’t think of anything that is completely different from the book. One thing that has happened is Alfonso has been very accurate in predicting in how one aspect of his character will turn out. He felt that he was quite an arrogant person even before the fourth and fifth books came out. He knew. I don’t know if he talked to J.K. Rowling about it, but his instinct with Harry—as was Chris Columbus’—is very accurate.
