Actor Dan Radcliffe is featured in UK gay magazine Attitude in the August issue.  The BBC has an article online highlighting parts of this interview, including comments on homophobia and more.  He also says:

“My dad was an agent and represented Jonathan Harvery who wrote Beautiful Thing so I grew up knowing Jonathan and his partner and it was just never an issue.  Then when you get to that age at school and someone calls you a poof, and you go, “What?”  You go, “Hold on, why is this word being used like this?”  It suddenly became really weird for me to have people around me who were homophobic.  It was a very strange, weird thing. I’ve always been around gay people.”

“I’m hopefully going to play Dan Eldon,the photojournalist who was stoned to death in Somalia.  I’ve spoken with his mother and sister and met them.  We need to make sure we get it right and do him real justice.”

MSN UK News has made up list for a “dream team of stars that should help run the country”.  Included on the list are Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe, Stephen Fry and Julie Walters!

Julie Walters:
Title: Secretary of State for one thing and another
She’s Britain’s First Auntie, always ready with a kindly word and a shoulder to lean or cry on. Domestic squabbles, municipal tiffs, a bit of bother with the state of the pavements down your high street: Julie would know what to do and how to do it.

Daniel Radcliffe:
Title: Chancellor of the Exchequer
Comes replete with obvious wizardry credentials, essential to help us out of the global economic crisis.

Stephen Fry:
Title: Father of the nation
Writer, presenter, comedian, broadcaster, dramatist, actor, full-time national treasure and all-round good egg. What more needs to be said?

Access Hollywood got a tour of the Knockturn Alley set for Half-Blood Prince, and there are interviews with Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe, and Tom Felton.

Since it is now July 23rd in the UK we should all wish Daniel Radcliffe a Happy 20th Birthday!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAN!!!!
