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 can't imagine Daniel Radcliffe in 19 years... he definitely wont look like Harry Potter anymore... or just a weird grown up version...hehe!
And I'm glad he's interested in delving into some classic literature! Good for him!

Ooh, good interview. It'll be interesting to see where Dan (and the rest of the actors) will be in 19 years... lots of possibilities.

Great interview. I hope Dan's still an actor in 19 years. He is such an amazing actor, I think he will definitely have a great career after Harry Potter. I can see his name going down in history as one of the best actors that ever existed. I can see Rupert, Emma and Dan being on the A-List of celebrities. Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Matt Damon...I can see the three of them hitting that type of celebrity status as they grow older.

True. His future can change anything, can't really expect to come! But hope that in the future, he can direct a movie!
Good luck Dan!

Erm, I have never heard Dan sing, so that would be something to look forward to if he were ever in a musical.
If people kept up with him, they would know that he has never been keen on school and the thought of him going to Princeton is funny. He is incredibly bright but hates school. Uni is not for everyone.

I wonder if they will get someone older to play Ron, Harry, Hermione, and Ginny as adults or if they will just use makeup to age the current actors.

Whatever or wherever he'll be in 19 years time, I'm sure he'll still be successful, down-to-earth and damn cute! He is such a lovely bloke ...

That is such a great interview. I can imagine Dan becoming a director, or writter in the future. I just hope he still does acting as well.

SnoopyLover,
He sings in December Boys, croaky and cute.
Nice interview with him - glad those uni rumours have been dashed. Glad to see he doesn't feel pressured to go. He's schedule would be incredibly hectic!

It's such a cheesy saying, but he's so down to earth. Of course really what a dream come true he's living isn't it? He got the HP role when he was a kid and it pretty much thrust him into the acting scene and made him pretty much famous. I don't think that any of them would even be noticed now if it wasn't for HP. They'd be trying to breath through still-if they were even interested in it at all, they were really very lucky.

Thanks, Bright Eyes. Now that you mention it, the clip that I have seen does have the girl he likes talking about how he sings. Now must wait for the movie so that I can hear for myself.

He would make a fine actor. So he should stay in this line.

In nineteen years he´ll be such a legend. Imagine the lot of very important movies and plays he can perform in that time, and the whole bunch of oportunities he´ll encounter.

Everytime he is interviewed, we see a mature side of him that would never be expected from other teenager stars. I'm so glad he is well grounded.

If Dan does get to direct a fil, he will be able to draw on lots of experiences from his time in front of the camera.

I went and read the article, and I think Dan is like a lot of us- still not sure of his plans. I hope that he does star in a musical, eventually. That would be really something.
