TIME Magazine Interviews: Daniel Radcliffe

[@cassieainsworth407]

"That's not a SPELL, that's a POTION." God, I love him. Also, didn't he sound a bit like Hermione then? Lol.

[@bcaye]

She would be proud.

[@RoonJazz]

Daniel Radcliffe is a genuinely nice person. It must be SO tedious and wearying to have to do interview after interview so often, yet each time he is professional, articulate, witty and polite. I love his Richard Harris anecdote. The world is a better place for having Daniel Radcliffe in it.

[@bcaye]

Absolutely.

[@khalsa7474]

true

[@BaySean]

Walter Mabry his character in NYSM 2 should wear glasses.

[@rismagranger]

British actors are really polite. I've seen many british actors being interviewed and many of them talked really politely

[@angelwithashotgun96]

Oh my God, i just love him. He *so* is Harry. "That's not a spell, that's a potion." Snape taught him well!

[@adamstanheightkinnie]

i love seeing dan getting excited whenever he talks about his time working with gary oldman, im so happy he got such an amazing experience working with him, he deserves the world.

[@galadrielherrinvonlothlori925]

"That's not a spell, that's a Potion!"😂☺

[@eishahanan1636]

It feels weird to hear Daniel speak of Harry as another person.

[@juliebastiaansen1725]

Finally someone who understands me

[@chelseydowney2374]

Charming Dan once again! He's very good at answering questions because of his genuine personality and knowledge of what to say.

[@stineobitz7138]

"That's not a spell, it's a potion?! DUUH!" He's amazing!

[@ushas7255]

Harry's hair here is perfect than the movie half blood prince

Why isn't this video getting views , this is so underrated !!😭💖

[@hpegsrox]

His tone when he says "Yes! You've been amazing!" HAHAHAHA idk why i think that's funny it just is

Daniel Radcliffe seems like that guy you just want to hang out with.

[@ellainekaye]

i love the fact that he knows the film and book very well.. he can distinguish spells and potions and knows what they can do.. he is so passionate about the movie

[@helenbobeirne]

Jesus christ! When he says that gary oldman died my heart nearly stopped... before i realised he was talking about sirius. I was so ready to fall apart

[@whitetiptailhummingbird9969]

Love Dan!! Perfect in every way possible!

[@SMXshow]

THATS NOT A SPELL ITS A POTION! ....bloody muggle.

[@withitgoesasmile]

He is so wonderfully human and intelligent. I don't think anyone could have played Harry better.

[@rosepotter099]

Something about “that’s not a spell that’s a potion” being the most replayed moment makes me crack up.

[@quibblcr]

Same 😭

[@alexiss5563]

Same. Lol 😅

[@sueannwashere]

There was some sass in that "That's not a spell, that's a potion" hahaha I love that

[@Mubarak635]

He is very thorough, but it seems like his mind is trying to say a few things at once, so he talks quite fast. That shows he is very intelligent and loves to prove things right.

[@Teeleer]

Daniel knows his stuff

[@SareshaTV]

oh my goodness i just love dan SO MUCH! i just LOVE how him and gary have such a GREAT GREAT GREAT relationship!! its so sweet and adorable!! and dan is just SO kind and the most down to earth actor ive ever seen!! and thats why hes always gonna be MY #1 idol ive always looked up to since i was a little kid. and he always will! dans shown me that through the years...

[@flora1743]

IT'S NOT A SPELL IT'S A POTION!! his face :3 :D I love him soooooooooooo muuuuuuuch :D ♥

[@mathmatucla]

"He's a Freudian nut-job, isn't he." Daniel just made my day XD

[@VioletVaria]

I just started cracking up when he said "That's not a spell, it's a potion!"

[@UMONSTER316]

i love this guy. as a person and an actor. perfect person to play harry.

[@cutecats532]

"He's a Freudian nutjob isn't he" had to pause it cuz i was laughing so hard xD

[@TerezaJezziesOnly]

I love Daniel the way he puts things.Great story teller and hilarious!!!!Love him!!!!

[@Pelicit]

''You know when the remote control is just a little bit far away and you can just ge- and- WAIT BUT ACTUALLY THEN HOLD ON WHAT IF THE WAND IS TOO FAR AWAY?!'' ''What about the lucky potion?'' ''THAT'S NOT A SPELL, THAT'S A POTION!'' *OBVIOUSLY YOU BLOODY PIECE OF MUGGLE*

[@66nylorac]

Oh, I just love this guy! Dan's relationship with Gary is just so adorable, not meaning to patronize, but it so sweet! What an amazing "world" these films have created, in addition to the "world" already created by JK Rowling, it is fascinating!

[@whiteribbonman1]

OH how I wish more people around ME had a vocabulary and a way of explaining themselves more like his!! He, his mates and others in his career path seem to have an extraordinary way with words and a better knowledge of inner language. Will have to find some Aussies to listen to today too!

[@waftsofpetrichor]

“That’s not a spell, that’s a potion.” The annoyance on his face was clearly visible. 😂

[@lia10s]

i adored Gary Oldman as Sirrius. i cried when he died - in both the book and the movie.

[@gilraen789]

His self deprecating humour is really charming. Obviusly a bright and well balanced young man. It will be interesting to follow his future career.

[@TheCityFlower]

He seems to be such a lovely and smart person. Not to mention that he's so cute and his eyes are abslolutely amazing ;) I just wish he has a very long and fantastic acting carrier lying ahead.

[@Katiedora122]

He's just so awesome in interviews. I adore him. "I peaked way too soon!"

[@AlyssaSchubert]

and people wonder why I have unfailing love for him...

[@lunalilymoon]

I love Dan :) He's so funny and sweet... can't watch him without "aww"ing all the time ;D

[@SofijaMitrovic]

oh Daniel.. if you want the remote to float towards you, it's Accio, not Vingardium Leviosa

[@Vousie]

Err, if you want the remote to come flying at your head, then Accio would be good. But *W*ingardium Leviosa would be better if you want it to be a bit slower.

[@SofijaMitrovic]

err you're obviously a muggle

[@ddffghij]

He is so fascinating! I love all of his interviews, he is my rolemodel

[@andreapatane4204]

Daniel Radcliffe is so cool. I managed to do some bed sharing with him in a fantasy I had last year in the summer. It was made into a music video called "Magic Arms" which told the story of Hope Feelgood and Harry Potter falling in love with each other face to face magically.

[@Arachne97]

I'm sorry; nearly everyone's said this already. But I just love the look on his face when he says "That's not a spell. That's a potion!"

[@pinkparallax]

why does he look sooo handsome here like 😍😍

[@claluni_9869]

That's not a spell, that's a potion! 😌😂😍

[@FatimaAli-qv7zj]

the best interview i have seen of daniel radcliffe...😘😘

[@mtnjoy]

"Not at all, thank YOU for giving me the forum to talk to you about this little art house project of mine." :-D Love this young man.

[@AlfTheTroll]

Whilst I never really get immersed into his emotional scenes, I think he did embody Harry well as the awkward, modest 'everyman' character as he seems quite down to earth and sincere in his interviews etc overall, and can see the guy is pretty humble despite all the trappings of fame.

[@PaulDanielGolban]

He's a great speaker! Whau!!!

[@chingzero]

"(whisper) yes!!! ...you've been amazing gary...!!!" would definitely say the same. gary you great man.

[@terriblecrayon]

The Gary Oldman story is beyond awesome. Beyond.

[@911beats]

i expected him to be a little too hollywood now, but he seems that hes down to earth and a nice guy

[@VampireMarshmellow]

'We have a curiosity' Lol he is so funny and cute! I love how he stutters lol ^.^

[@touchingclouds]

3:13 is freaking adorable, he is so lovable ahahah

[@FillishTV]

Oh, when he talked about Gary Oldman, I almost cried :')

[@EdwardCullen185]

Man, he's my idol! I love everything about him

[@sadisticwinter8354]

I laughed so hard when he corrected her with aggression omg

Fantastic interview! He seems so into it, and genuinly passionate about what he's doing. What a great guy :-)

"As far as I'm concerned, i am the bravest man in the world, and I would do all these brave things." Ah, Dan. You make my day. :D

[@Evelyn-uq9ef]

He’s so cute omfg 🥰

[@CookieCreamCrumble]

i love dan even if he wasnt playing harry i bet hed be a potterhead ,

[@AyAyAyNaru]

I died slightly when he talked about Gary

[@Katiedora122]

Ahaha, his voice talking to Gary Oldman is hysterical! And I love his little Freudian comment there.

[@MrFredzGirl]

The lady was quite stupid if the "Lucky POTION" had potion in it and she called it a spell. I really love how he sometimes stutters and how he taps his legs on set and in interviews. He's just a really good actor in my opinion and I really wonder how people say Harry Potter is boring.

[@ravzanur5601]

HE'S SO FINE

[@brucedoyle4055]

I would choose the spell "Imperio" or "Obliviate" , that would be the best ones.

[@Vousie]

So what you're saying is that you're a very controlling/manipulative person??

[@brucedoyle4055]

Vousie V I try my best.

[@ellos34]

Thank you Daniel, Emma and Rupert for giving birth but also for ending my childhood in such an awesome way.

Her intonation when she states, who is asking the question and where they are from, is like she expects him to respond.

yessss. you've been amazing!

"That's not a spell, that's a potion!'' Lol he seemed like he got offended.

[@Zombie_pepper_in_conus]

5:05 gold

[@xoVioleteyezxo]

hes absolutely fascinating

[@parallel4]

Harry was _not_ manipulative, and neither was he selfish. He had his flaws, but he was not manipulative. Dumbledore was manipulative, and Snape to an extent, but Harry was selfless and in terms of manipulation, well, he did what he could to not be. When manipulation was necessary, he did manipulate others to an extent, but reluctantly, and he would have had them do so willingly if he could have. And as for your comment on him being selfish... _How_? He hated others fighting for him and he never wanted anyone else to get hurt. He willingly walked to his death in Deathly Hallows just so that nobody else could die 'for him'. I guess that you might call him selfish in the sense that he managed to blame himself for all of the deaths, but I don't think that that makes him selfish. If you were the symbol of a war and you were partially responsible for the war starting (not on purpose, obviously), wouldn't you feel responsible for everyone fighting on your side? That they were almost fighting _for_ you and not _with_ you? In Harry's position, I would have felt guilty about the deaths as well. You can't fault his character for that; he's only human, as are you or I.

[@waftsofpetrichor]

I agree. Harry was not selfish at all. He despised it when people sacrificed themselves for him. In the Order of the Phoenix, he hands over the prophecy to Lucius Malfoy even though he knew that Voldemort was after it. And why did he give it then? Well, he gave it for his friends! The Death Eaters had taken ahold of all his friends. Lucius asked him to give it or his friends would die. And he gave it, for them. In the Deathly Hallows, he loathes seeing everyone sacrificing their lives for him. As he entered the Forbidden Forest to confront Voldemort and die, he sees the ghosts of his parents, Sirius, and Lupin to whom he says “you did not have to die for me,” or something like that. He was incredibly selfless. Whereas when we talk about him being manipulative, he was, but to a certain extent. And, as you have said, he only manipulated people whenever necessary.

[@morbo735]

i love how much he stammers, it's cute haha

[@Fawkes42]

[@Kullcans]

"wait what if the wand is too far away?!" woah, shit just got real O_o
