In a recently conducted interview on the set of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix at Leavesden Studios, Daniel Radcliffe discusses the ending of the series and the sixth movie, Half-Blood Prince. He also talks about his next role on London's West End in Equus and his accent in his recently completed movie December Boys.
Dan on the end of the series and if he's spoken with JKR about it:
I've had talks with her but, not about that. I don't know anything that's going to happen in the seventh film. I hope it will be very, very good I'll go with whatever.
I think it will be quite exciting really. It may be the only way (the arch villain) Voldemort could be killed is if Harry dies as well because there is that very strong connection between them.
Dan on if he will participate in the Half-Blood Prince movie:
I don't know. But the sixth book is fantastic and if the script is good and does it justice, then it would be foolish to turn it down.
Dan speaking about his West End debut in Equus next year and appearing naked on stage:
All the other actors who have ever played the part have done that, so for me not to do it wouldn't really be playing the part. It would be a watered down version. It wouldn't be the same.
I'll be incredibly nervous, but I think 'It's in the script; it's got to be done.' I'm terrified, but excited.
Dan mentions at the end of the interview that everyone will have to wait to hear his Australian accent in December Boys when the movie is released and that he enjoyed working in a different country with a new crew.

That has to be a total change of pace, doing something in a new country with new people. I'm sure he does great, and I can't wait to see it. I'd be nervous about going nude for a role as well, that has to be terrifying.

I really hope that Dan, Emma, and Rupert do the last 2 movies. It just wouldn't be the same without them playing their parts. Let's hope for a really good script for movies 6&7.

Hey, I read that in the newspaper. I didn't read the thing about Teresa Palmer, though. I should've. Ah, well. I wish there was more info on the accent. I'm pretty certain everyone in Australia will notice it's fake, but I wonder how the rest of the world will see it??? Australians can pick a false accent a mile away, so I'll be hugely impressed if he pulls it off.

I cant believe he is going nude. I would be totally terrified and dont think i would be able to do it. I hope he does the sixth movie it would be totally silly to change now. I think he is right about both Harry and Voldemort will have to die.

I would be very dissapointed if the original actors did not finish this series. I mean all of them. The major ones anyway. There are only 2 more left after they are done OotP.
I think that they have a responsibility to their fans and to the Harry Potter fans. That is just my opinion. I honestly think they shouldn't have a choice.
How could they replace Dan, Hermione, Ron, Hagrid, Draco, Lucius? and more????

Let me just be the 1,000 person to say how much it would stink if any of the actors in leading roles didn't stick around for the last couple films. It just wouldn't be the same. I really want to see December Boys!

Where do they find time to film other movies?
I was thinking, is December Boys another Brits-only film or is it coming to the States? Apparently Harry Potter is the only film we can see of Dan or Rupert.
Is Emma making any other movies by chance?

Dan sounds quite excited about following the HP films...Im sure that they will be really good and that he will be in them. I cant believe that Dan will be naked in Equus, Im sure it will be good and all but I bet - like he said he will be so very nervous, I know I would be.
