Daniel has lent his voice for a short film entitled The Legacy of Hope for the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust. It is created for the Holocaust Memorial Day in 2010 (27th January). This short film focuses on three Holocaust victims who spoke of their survival.

From the press release:

Daniel explains his involvement:

“When I was approached to narrate this short film, The Legacy of Hope, I felt very privileged. I felt that in a very small way I was contributing to the remembrance of these tragic and horrendous events, whilst also commemorating all those people who refused to let the horrors they had lived through dictate the tone of the rest of their lives.

“The surest shield we have against future atrocities is our knowledge and our emotional understanding of what has happened in the past. The chance to help the vital work done by the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust could not be turned down.”

Carly Whyborn, Chief Executive Officer, Holocaust Memorial Day Trust:

“With this year’s theme – The Legacy of Hope’ it is entirely fitting that Daniel, who is so well known amongst younger audiences, has narrated our film, which will be shown at HMD events across the UK. Through the film, people will have the opportunity to listen to the memories of survivors like Ben, Lily and Iby and think about what action they can take after HMD which will have a positive impact on their community.”

Like I posted before, you could vote for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince for the Scream Awards 2009. Well the movie won in two categories: The first being for Best Ensemble and the second for Holy (Crap) Scene of the Year. The second award was due to the beginning Death Eater/Millennium Bridge sequence.

There will be a special online worldwide live community screening of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on 12th December. Director David Yates will host the event, which rolls out from London at 8 PM local time. Daniel will also attend the event.

Fans who register their Half-Blood Prince Blu-ray discs through BD Live will be invited to the screening, and the first 100,000 who RSVP will be guaranteed a spot to participate. More info here.

"I'm really looking forward to the live community screening of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and excited to talk directly to fans of the movie about my experiences and answer their questions," said Radcliffe. "It's a wonderful way for fans and for those directly involved with making a film to share opinions and ideas."

Yates added, "I'm looking forward to engaging with the thoughts and opinions of the fans who have supported us so loyally and passionately over the years-without them the films wouldn't be the success they are."
