Hero Complex have posted a mini interview with Tom Felton where he discusses actors he admires, Daniel Radcliffe in particular.

After the cameras were off, though, the lanky 23-year-old who grew up in the role of Draco Malfoy spoke a bit about the actors he admired, and right near the top of that list was Daniel Radcliffe, the good friend who plays Draco’s despised nemesis, the franchise’s title character.

“Daniel is someone I look up to massively, even though he’s two years younger than me. He treats the job serious, exceptionally so, and takes nothing for granted. He doesn’t think, ‘All right, I booked the first film, I’m going to bugger off to Tahiti for a month.’ He’s there, working during the breaks between films, doing acting classes,  speech classes, whether it’s song and dance or whatever the next challenge. He’s always working to perfect his craft. At the same time, he has an exceptionally laid-back attitude on the set. …  He remembers everybody’s name perfectly the first time he meets them. I’m somewhat the second or third time.”

Then, with a wink, the pride of Slytherin added: “He’d be a good salesman. He’s been talking about that for a few years, I’ve been putting him off that. I think he should stick with acting.”
