Several people have posted blogs concerning Daniel Radcliffe's recent appearence on Inside the Actors Studio
. The reports include numerous details on what occurred on the program.
Included in the program was a Q&A from several fans:
Student #1 – How does he choose between a challenging role vs. one that’s not a good fit?
Dan talks about his small stature – he couldn’t play a security guard, Richard Griffiths won’t play a “fat” role (Falstaff) but it’s important to take on challenge
Student #2 – What does he do to prepare for live performance?
Dan listens to unhappy music on Ipod, thinks about Alan’s crime against the horses – the intensity, but relaxes and doesn’t worry
Student #3 – Who does he want to work with? What’s his favorite spell?
Alahomora (to open doors), Woody Harrelson is brilliant, Johnny Depp (yelps from the audience, makes running rain forest joke), the Coen brothers
Student #4 – Does he pull direction from HP novels or the script?
The script first, book as a backup. Mentions Steve Kloves, he doesn’t read the Potter books over and over (he’s not obsessed)
Student #5 –Artistically, what is the best and worst thing about acting?
Worse – unprofessional people, or those who aren’t in it for the right reason, who don’t treat you well
Best – being in atmosphere of creativity and practicality (on film set)

I wonder if any of those unprofessional people were from the Potter set. I know that he speaks highly of Robbie Coltrane and Alan Rickman for instance, and he seems to enjoy being around Emma and Rupert. Perhaps it's Gambon- I could totally see him being rude and unprofessional. I like that he would like to be in a movie with Johnny Depp.
I will say this forever no matter what anyone says- Depp is my number one pick for Xeno Lovegood. I know, I know. He's not British, but I just cannot see anyone else pull that off as well as he could.

This was delightful. I hope to be able to see the program when it is released. I try to catch the Actors Studio whenever I can.
One thing is for certain, Dan has a sence of humor all of his own. It's refreshing.
Blessings! Hecate3fold!

Interesting answers. Its funny that he dosn't reread the books, when most of the people that have read them, read them more than twice.

I like Dan's choice for a favorite spell. That's a very handy one, but I am lazy and think that Accio would help me more. *grins* Also, I had no idea he like Johnny Depp, but these days, who doesn't.

That was so good - I'm glad there's some articles and interviews out there as to HOW he's an actor - not just "he's Harry Potter". He's awesome.

Very interesting comments. Quite a change from his very first interviews several years ago. Should be interesting to see where he goes after all the HP films are finished.

Hehe, I would bet there are MANY unprofessional people on the Potter set! And a few who can`t even act. But we will see how far they will make it once the series are finished.
This interview was kinda weirdly written.

Interesting questions...
Dan listens to unhappy music on Ipod
Hehe, that would probably calm me too.
unprofessional people, or those who aren’t in it for the right reason, who don’t treat you well
I bet almost any actor would say that same thing and they're probably right!

I can't wait to see the interview myself. I wonder why he wasn't asked which swear word was his favorite? Usually that is one (if not the last) question asked. I hope his age (or the age of his fans) was an issue.

He's a funny guy but I find him a bit self-righteous these days. Still, it would be good to see this interview.

Sorry for the double post, but it kind of annoys me how he doesn't really empathise with the HP fans, he's always kind of like, oh I don't read the books, trying to be cool maybe. I think, thought, that reading the books is cool to us fans. He just shouldn't discount what made him famous in the first place, but I'll have to watch this to see how he says it.

How can he not be obsessed with reading the books when he is playing the main character!! Oh well, I still respect him for his choices, and I can see him working with the Coen brothers in a movie.
