The Sun reports that in a new interview with
Empire Magazine, Daniel Radcliffe compares
Half-Blood Prince to the 1996 film
Trainspotting:
Quote:
“There’s a fair amount of sexual energy and drug parallels. We have a couple of Trainspotting moments.
“That’s two films I never thought would be mentioned in the same breath.”
There is a brief comment from director David Yates, who talks about the opening sequence of the sixth film:
Quote:
“We’re opening with a big attack. We’ll bring a major London landmark crashing down.”
The article also has a new photo of Dan attached, which can be seen

Thanks to
Amy and
Rose for the tip!
UPDATE: The Mirror has an extended comment from the one Dan was quoted as saying in the above-mentioned article:
Quote:
"There is a fair amount of sexual energy and there are some drug parallels. We have a couple of what David Yates, the director calls our 'Trainspotting moments'.
"There's a great balance. The light parts are lighter than before, and the dark parts are extremely dark."
