Playboy interview

Interview0 Comments

Radcliffe answers 20 questions for a Playboy interview. He talks about growing up with Harry Potter, his height, and masturbation.

Yeah, I was like every other teenager in that sense. My favorite line about masturbation is Louis C.K.’s, something like “I found out about it when I was 11, and I didn’t skip a day.” I think I started very early—before my teens. But not when I was on set. I wasn’t going, When is Alan Rickman going to nail this scene so I can run back to my trailer? There’s another feeling, again perfectly described by Louis C.K.: that fear just after you’ve jerked off that everyone knows what you did. It would have been embarrassing to walk back on set and look the dignitaries of British acting royalty in the eye, knowing what I’d been doing.

We both admitted to having a thing for each other, but neither of us did anything about it, which I’m actually very happy about because we are still friends today. But it was something that had to be discussed and acknowledged before we could move on.

Seacrest interviews Radcliffe during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about his role in the movie What If.

I’ve had friendships, which have evolved into relationships. This movie is not so much like, ‘Can a man and woman be friends?’ as, ‘Is it right is it sane or healthy to ever live in total denial of your own feelings for somebody?’ [In What If] I meet this girl, fall in love with her, she has a boyfriend, but she makes me so happy that I’m just like, ‘Okay, well I’ll just hang around with her because she makes me happy than anyone else does’.

Elle Magazine interviews Radcliffe about him watching the TV show Millionaire Matchmaker.

My girlfriend got me into it. It’s unbelievably compulsive television. I know the men on there get told nothing but wonderful things about themselves all the time. But I watch them, and I’m like, “How are you speaking to a woman like this?!”

Radcliffe returns as a guest on Late Night with Seth Meyers to discuss What If. He also talks about playing a regular human for the first time, eating Elvis Presley’s favorite sandwiches, doing a cameo in a Judd Apatow movie, and working on the second season of his television show, Young Doctor’s Notebook.

That’s a show that people over here may not be as aware of. It was something we did in England, it’s myself and Jon Hamm and we play the same doctor at different ages in his life. We do have scenes together as well because he’s sort of walking through his own flashback, giving advice to his younger self.

Seacrest interviews Radcliffe during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about rumors that he didn’t get along with Rupert Grint.

Rupert and I never text, we never have in 10 years of filming. We are crappy at texting each other back and we both know that’s how the other person is and we just accept it. The next time I see Rupert we will sit down next to each other and chat and it will be like old times. Me and Rupert are very, very good friends it’s just that we are not constantly texting each other.

In the second film,there was a shot where I had to hitch my trouser legs up to show I’m not wearing socks, and at 12 my legs were way too hairy, and they said, ‘Nobody’s going to believe any 12-year-old would have that much hair’, so they had to shave two inches up from my ankle.
