Jenna from danradcliffe.com talked with Daniel about December Boys in July but has released her interview online now. It's shared on her Aced magazine website. Below an excerpt.
You have a lot of scripts coming your way, what made you choose this one?
You know, you probably get… say you get 50 scripts, if you get one of
them that’s good then that’s great. If you get one that’s brilliant,
you’ve hit the jackpot… and that’s what we did. The script for December Boys
was absolutely fantastic. I read the script and loved it. And then…
meeting the director in London, a guy called Rod Hardy, who directs a
lot of American TV.
This has been his project of passion for about twelve years now. He’s been trying to get it made. After meeting with him, that just confirmed it for me because we had very similar visions of the film as a whole and of my character Maps. From that point on I really wanted to do it. We had always planned to do something between Harry Potter four and five, and December Boys came along at exactly the right time. It was a beautiful piece of writing so… yea – that was the reason.
