There's only a video from part 2

Rotten Tomatoes sat down with Daniel on the set of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

In the last movie Harry seemed to face psychological and physical challenges, whereas in this movie the problems he faces are more intellectual, as he tries to piece the puzzle together. Does anything change in your approach to the character?
Daniel Radcliffe: I don’t think a huge amount does change in terms of how you approach it. You come to every scene with the same basic tools. You come to it with knowledge of your character and knowledge of what their fundamental wants and needs are and how they would go about getting them. And you would just apply them to whatever situation they’re in. The real challenge of acting for me, I suppose, is just getting to know a character very, very well and just applying what I know about them to every single scene. That’s what it can be broken down to.

First in the series details One Day in the Life of Daniel Radcliffe, captured on January 13th 2009 during the actor's Broadway run of EQUUS. Comprised of 50 images, captured during Radcliffe's first experience of working in New York and on Broadway.

Hailand hopes with this book to give the viewer greater insight into Radcliffe as a person as well as a creative and reflective thinker. The footnotes for the book have been written by the young actor giving a personal perspective of each image and its relevance in that day. Hailand will donate a portion of all book sales to Broadway Cares/Equity fights AIDS (BC/EFA), in recognition of this great organization.

Release dates: 15th December 2009 (US) and 21st December 2009 (UK). For more info: The official Website (buy the book): onedayinthelifeof.org Tim Hailand: timhailand.com

"Hopefully in the next couple of years, I'll be back on stage in some form. I'd love to come to Broadway again," Radcliffe says. "They responded to the fact that I have a work ethic. I was on Broadway at the same time as Jeremy Piven, and I think he made me look really, really good because I didn't miss a show." He was jokingly referring to Piven's run in Speed-the-Plow, which was shortened by the actor's mercury poisoning.

Once the final Potter wraps, Radcliffe is scheduled to play British photojournalist Dan Eldon, who was killed in 1993 in Mogadishu, Somalia. "I really want to do that. It's just a matter of getting the script absolutely right," Radcliffe says.

First thing he'll do after Potter? "Sleep. Ideally, I would have three weeks off and go straight to something else. I get bored not working. … I have a huge amount of energy. When I'm on set, I use it all up. At home, I go wild in my head."

«'t Was best indrukwekkend om te zien hoe alles daar georganiseerd was. We moesten duidelijk níét proberen om streken uit te halen, zoals destijds in 'Mediamadammen': alles was tot op de minuut getimed. Omdat ze als de dood waren dat er iets uitlekte, mochten we zelfs de tapes van onze interviews niet mee naar huis nemen. Die werden ginder eerst bekeken en beluisterd - met vertalers erbij, om na te gaan wat ik, de acteurs en de producers gezegd hadden - en daarna ter plekke gemonteerd. Niet helemaal ten onrechte, zo bleek: Michael Gambon, die professor Dumbledore speelt, had in ons interview per ongeluk de clou weggegeven. Dat hebben ze er uitgeknipt.»

Update: 26th April 2017. Cinescape interview. In which he says he has no Facebook or Twitter. And that people should ignore the "Daniel on Twitter" who claims to be him.
Update: 29th September 2017. La Cosa Cine Central interview.

In a recent interview with The Guardian revealed that he has published poems under the pen name of Jacob Gershon which is a combination of his middle name and the Jewish version of his mother's maiden name, Gresham.

"I didn't want to publish it under my name. It's the kind of thing I look back on and just think, 'Ahhh!'

"As an actor, there is room for a certain amount of creativity, but you're always ultimately going to be saying somebody else's words

"I don't think I'd have the stamina, skill or ability to write a novel, but I'd love to write short stories and poetry, because those are my two passions. There is an art to a short story.

"I love Raymond Carver, and Chekhov – without making myself sound more highbrow than I am! When I don't write in form and metre, I become unbearably self-indulgent. It's what Robert Frost said: free verse is like playing tennis with the net down."

Only a dozen journalists had the privilege to talk with him for ten minutes at a press junket. The others had to settle for a joined interview. There's a clip below, it's dubbed.
