In a new interview
with Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe, Dan talks about his future plans, how he'll feel in 19 years and comments on how he reacted to the last book in the series, Deathly Hallows, and other subjects.
Dan on continuing his education:
What will be great is it's without the pressure of exams and deadlines. He's going to take me through the books you need someone's help with, like Paradise Lost and Ulysses stuff I would never be able to read without help to illuminate it for me.
When asked where he would be in 19 years (paralleling the timeframe in HP7 epilogue):
Hopefully, I'll still be acting. I'll be writing and maybe along the way or further that than, I'd like to direct something. But this is all very hypothetical, so I don't know; I couldn't possibly say.
Thanks to Roger from the Union-Tribune for the link.

I really hope Daniel is still acting 19 years from now. He is an amazing actor and good actors just get even better with time. :) It will be interesting to see where his career takes him over the next 19 years. :)

Cool interview. Is it just me or does he never comment much on the ginny/ harry relationship? even when talking about the 6th book, he only mentioned r/hr, never g/h. Maybe he doesnt like them together, i don't know. Well, personally, i'm looking forward to it

It will be interesting to see what he will be doing next. He is very talented and has wide appeal. Maybe he will try "Dancing with the Stars"?

I love hearing what their plans are. I would support him whatever he wanted to do, but i think he could go to uni only if he wanted to of course!

The only reason to go to uni is to get a good job so you can make lots of money. Dan already has that. Plus I don't think that school is the most importent thing in the world.

I could so see him doing those things as he gets older. However i'm afraid Harry Potter will be what we all shall always remember him as!

I really hope that Dan is still acting 19 years from now. I think he's a very versatile and talented actor with much to offer! I'm also very pleased that he has such great parents who take good care of their son and teach him right! Everyone always says how down to earth, sincere and polite Dan is!

I stay torn between wanting him to further his education thorugh university and continue acting. Hmmmm, either is good. I do want to keep seeing him onscreen and on stage.

Hmmmm, it didn't say anything about musicals, unless I missed something. That really made me curious. Good luck anyways!

Well...19 years from now? Hmm...maybe Daniel as James Bond? It's just a thought. I certainly would find it interesting, even though the Bond movies have lost my interest with all the explosions and such. I much rather preferred the more imaginative/romantic ones of the past. Maybe Daniel could be the Bond to bring those back? Guess we'll just have to see then.

I'm glad to see that Dan has kept his senses about him.
He seems to be quite in control of where he's going and what he wants to do.
I wish him well.
Blessings! Hecate3fold!

I would think he would want to go to college, at least part time, i feel like going to college would be invaluable to him, or anyone. Well maybe i think this way because i'm starting the college applying procces myself, it is hard.

I don't know why he would ever think that he is not bright enough for university...sounds incredibly brilliant to me. His vocabulary is amazing. I know very few kids at his age that have that kind of perception--about themselves, and their capabilities. Although, I do see the interest in learning for the joy of learning rather than grades and timetables. :o) Good for him. :o)

Wherever he is in 19 years I'm sure he will be very successful and will have probably fulfilled all those thing he says he want to do.
