Daniel Radcliffe: I get bored easily

13th May 2011

(Cover) - EN Movies - Daniel Radcliffe says he is making the most of his acting energy while hes young.

The 21-year-old British actor has wrapped filming on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2, which brings an end to the hugely successful fantasy franchise, and Daniel says he is looking ahead to other acting opportunities.

Daniel says he gets bored easily and enjoys the prospect of going to work every morning.

Yes! he exclaimed when asked if he likes to keep busy. This is the time in my life when Ive got both the energy and the desire to be busy, so Im making hay while the sun shines. I get bored very quickly when Im not doing anything, and Im very happy at work, so I dont know why Id stop!

The actor has had a starring role on Broadway in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, and has prior to that achieved success on stage in Equus. The talented youngster is also starring in upcoming horror movie The Woman in Black, which is due for release next year.

Daniel says he is aware of the fact he needs to take career risks following the reign of success that Harry Potter has achieved. He says that although he owes his career to the fantasy franchise, he is keen to branch out into other genres.

Im very proud of Harry Potter, but I now have to take a few risks to prove to people that Im serious about this, he said in an interview with Total Film. I dont regard The Woman in Black particularly as a risk, but certainly Equus was, and How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying could be seen as a bit of a risk because its something that Ive never done before. I think thats how you prove to people that you are prepared to take slightly more extreme steps than most actors would normally have to.

Daniel can be next seen in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 in July. (C) Cover Media
