In a new interview with Metro.co.uk Daniel Radcliffe talks about his future after Harry Potter.
‘It’s bizarre. Most working actors want to become stars. I sort of am a star because of Harry Potter,’ he told Radio Times. ‘And I would love to become a working actor. I love auditioning. But, to be honest, I’m happy to ride this as long as it goes,’ he continued. ‘If it goes for two months after Potter, I’m happy. If it goes for six years, I’m happy.’
‘I truly believe that if I don’t make it as an actor, I will make it another way – I don’t have doubts about myself. I’ve been through all the stuff.’
