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.

>if you go to DanRadcliffe.com or Mugglenet, they have the scan. :)
Yes, but it's scans of the same scan (from the dr.com.uk source). Listen, I've been in Dan's fandom for five years and have seen things done to articles that would make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.
I am keeping an eye on the herald website to see what turns up tomorrow.

I guess I've always just taken it for granted that DR would play in all the movies unless some sort of catastrophy occured.

Can't wait to hear Dan's Australian accent in the December Boys. Can't wait to see the movie too.
Great interview! Dan sure was careful not to let anything slip, if he knows anything about book 7. Sneaky...but such fun waiting.

I hope Dan comes onto the HBP movie set, really! The series is almost over, and he'd disappoint so many fans :/

I hope he likes the script for HBP, I just can't picture anyone else playing Harry. I think the WB should get the actors to sign contracts now for movies 6 and 7.

I agree! And he better not turn down the 6th film! They're finally going faster with the movie progression!

dang....
Dan's gonna be naked on stage? That's *cough* interesting...
...
Anyways, I wanna watch December Boys, and I don't know how Dan'll sound with an Australian accent...it's kinda close to British right?
And really, he should stop saying that Harry will die. If he's talking with JK and telling us his theory, it's most likely his theory is an influence from JK.
ACCIO OotP MOviE!!!!!!

He needs to do the last 2 movies, he's the MAIN CHARACTER! He can't quit now. He needs to finish out the series.

Dan has to play Harry in the movies. I despise it when they change actors half way through a series. Though, I would be able to see their reasoning with the age issue. *sigh* I still hope he stays.

Its nice to read up on good ole Dan =] Its cool how hes branching out to theatre. Well everyone is making a deal over the naked thing, but I guess you could expect that especially considering he is who he is. I would like to see December Boys, I wonder what he'll sound like.
