There is no truth to it at all," Radcliffe told the Empire Podcast. "It's one of those very, very funny things: it came out of a story in the Daily Star and then you see newspapers like The Guardian using The Star as their source, and it grows and grows [until] it's 'Dan Radcliffe is playing Freddie Mercury!', which I was never going to do."

"Everyone on the internet who I presume is saying I'm totally wrong for that part is correct," he laughed. "I AM completely wrong for that part!"

"If I'd seen a rumour about me playing Iggy Pop, I'd think, 'Hey, I'd have a go at that - that'd be fun!', but Freddie Mercury? No. I don't even know who the director is. They seem to be saying it's Stephen Frears and Tom Hooper on the internet."

"This is the kind of thing that happens to me and it happens to Emma (Watson) with multiple 50 Shades Of Grey things. When somebody has column inches to fill, they just sub in one of our names."

Many celebrities have shared their five favourite books for Scholastic UK's literacy campaign Read Every Day, including Daniel. The campaign aims to get children and their parents and guardians to commit to reading every day.

“I think it’s fair to say that if we’re talking about the five books that have most influenced my life, I think it would be pretty churlish of me not to say Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone for giving me everything that I have and everything that I will have.”

"However, The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov is my favourite, favourite book in the world ever. To me it’s the greatest exploration of the human imagination, and it’s about forgiveness and life and history, and it’s just the most incredible book that I’ve ever read; I read it once and then I read it almost immediately again.”

Daniel’s other choices include literary classics like The Old Man and the Sea. See his full list here.

Scholastic UK asks that you become a role model by submitting contact details and fill out a questionnaire.

“Books matter. The research so far clearly indicates that children who have books in the home do better in school. Read Every Day is about inspiring children and making reading exciting. We want to help support the fantastic work that teachers do, so we’re asking everyone to get involved and make reading the main event every day. Children read more when they see their parents reading, and getting the whole family involved raises achievement,” stated Catherine Bell who is the managing director of Scholastic UK.

The mini-series A Young Doctor's Notebook (Записки юного врача) will première in Russia on REN TV tomorrow (exactly on midnight today). "Hoboctи 24" (news 24) aired an exclusive interview with Daniel to promote A Young Doctor's Notebook in Russia.

Daniel's message to Russia (he speaks a bit Russian):



The interview:

During the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), 8th September 2013, Daniel also stopped by the NKPR IT Lounge where he posed at the IT Lounge Portrait Studio for W magazine in promotion of The F Word, Horns and Kill Your Darlings. IT Lounge 2013 did help raise funds for Artists for Peace and Justice. A donation was made on behalf of every celebrity that had their portrait taken at the IT Lounge.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) uploaded a new interview with Daniel on YouTube in which he talks about Kill Your Darlings at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

"It's definitely not Harry Potter," laughs Daniel Radcliffe of his role as college-aged Beat poet Allen Ginsberg in KIll Your Darlings. Hear what he has to say about this true crime story, which also stars Michael C. Hall, Ben Foster, Dane DeHaan and Jack Huston.

Daniel attended the Sky Drama launch this morning for A Young Doctor's Notebook series 2, which is called A Young Doctor's Notebook & Other Stories. Sky Arts released a new exclusive interview online with Daniel and a sneak preview of the new series.

To view the video click here.

Update: Here some quotes from the press conference. About the film, Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them:

"I'm sure they're going to have a great time. I'm sure a lot of people will be really excited." "I, needless to say, won't be involved. I don't know if any of us (the original Potter cast) will be. I know nothing about it."

If he is looking to do more stage work soon:

“I had an amazing time on Cripple. It was a great show, with a great company. It was slightly exhausting in the last month as I was doing that at the same time as shooting this [Young Doctor’s Notebook].” “That [theatre] is real work, so I am going to have to give it a little more time before I go back to it, I think.”

A few press junket interviews appeared online in which Daniel discusses his role as Allen Ginsberg in Kill Your Darlings. One of them is an interview with The Roz & Mocha Show (listen here) and they announced that the ’50 Shades’ Casting News is a joke started by them.

Damnit Maurie, of The Roz & Mocha Show, sat down with Daniel Radcliffe at TIFF to talk about his new film ‘Kill Your Darlings’, and to have a little bit of his own fun…

During the interview, he started a rumour that the world is SHOCKED that Daniel wasn’t cast as Christian Grey in the 50 Shades film!

The news has since gone viral world wide, and has become THE story EVERYONE is talking about!

Entertainment One Films (EOne Live, which you can follow via #EOneLive on Twitter & Facebook) posted a new interview online with Daniel and Zoe Kazan at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in which they discuss The F Word.


source: eonelive.com

I can’t believe you couldn’t find a fourth film to squeeze into TIFF. That’s just lazy.

I know, I’m really disappointed in myself. (laughs) The thing is that I’m kind of most pleased with about the three that are in is that they’re all so different. There is a real range of performances on display here, and I’m very happy about that. I just hope that if people get a chance to see them that they agree.

You’ve developed a great collaborative relationship with your “Kill Your Darlings” director, John Krokidas.

It’s been one of the joys of doing this film. You know, I’ve worked with loads of directors, and he’s the best director of actors I have worked with. Like, he got a performance from me that I didn’t know that I necessarily had in me. At the time I was really worried and nervous about it, and he had the ability to keep me calm and also to fire me up to do good work. He’s also a great note-giver. I gave him my script. I’ve actually finished a script for the first time in my life. It’s probably s—, but I’ve finished it. So obviously I sent it to him, and he gives such good notes, it was very impressive.

And you guys apparently wear the same size clothes?

He can tell you that if he wants. (laughs) I don’t know that we’d fit all the same clothes. John’s got 11 years head-start on me. Although he did tell me today that he’s a 28-inch waist, which if that’s true that’s bloody impressive. I have heard that one of this back-up suits is an old suit of mine for the premiere. So if it all goes to s— tomorrow and he’s in something with the buttons popping open at the front, it’s because he’s in a suit that I bought when I was 18.

Can you tell me anything about your screenplay?

Not particularly, just that it’s a really dark comedy. I don’t know that that would be ultimately the thing I would direct — I want to direct at some point, but who knows if it would be that or not. It’s a very dark comedy about when friends outgrow each other, basically. It’s a similar story to this in the sense that one person has to cut someone off, basically, in order to live his own life. That’s the theme, I suppose, but it’s dealt with in a very dark and insane way.

What intrigued you most about Allen Ginsberg?

What I find interesting about him is that his confidence is so much intellectual and internal. In his inner life, he is so f—ing confident and so smart, and he is that, but that doesn’t translate into his outer life, into his interactions with people socially. So when he sees Lucian, here’s this charismatic — beautiful, obviously — but charismatic and charming, funny, can relate to anyone, can talk to anyone, isn’t intimidated by any social situation, and just falls for him. Because you often, I think, fall in love with characteristics in people that you don’t have in yourself or that you want in yourself, and that’s who he was.

Any modern poetry you’re into?

There’s a great line in a Hold Steady song called “Banging Camp” that I love where he says, “I saw her at the party pit, she was shaky but still trying to shake it. Half-naked and three-quarters wasted, she was completely alone.” It’s a great line. And then it’s, “I saw him at the riverbanks, he was breaking bread and giving thanks with crosses made of pipes and planks leaned up against the nitrous tanks.” I was listening to Eminem recently, and I can’t think of an American poet I like more from the last 50 years. And the great thing about his stuff is you can just read it. You can just look up the lyrics and read it as a f—ing awesome hard-core poem. The levels of wordplay, frankly, is stuff that poetry professors couldn’t dream of. I think it’s valid, it will become valid. Just as “Howl” did. There was no way that was taught in schools in the 1950s, but now it is.

Entertainment Weekly interviewed Daniel at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) where he is promoting Kill Your Darlings, Horns and The F Word. “It’s that rarest of things,” says Radcliffe. “It’s a really cheerful, happy film without being sentimental.” Read more here.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Two years removed from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, which capped a decade of eight movies that grossed more than $7.7 billion worldwide, do you find that the industry still sees you as that character, and do you find that frustrating?
DANIEL RADCLIFFE: On the whole, no is the answer to that question. Occasionally you’ll get some script in for some crappy fantasy thing and you just go, “Well, no, guys.” But generally speaking, I think the fact that I’ve shown a willingness to stretch myself and test myself means that people want to test you. So, no, I don’t get frustrated by that because it hasn’t — so far, at least — been an issue.

Daniel answered a fan question at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) from Entertainment One Live's Carlton Cards Contest. Hashtag: #TheEnvelope. Below the question submitted by: Katharine Chen.

Question: How would you compare your experiences on these two movies? (The F Word and Kill Your Darlings)


source: eonelive.com

There's a scene in The F Word that's creating a bit of a stir: Without the aid of movie magic or special effects, Daniel Radcliffe and co-stars Zoe Kazan, Adam Driver, and Mackenzie Davis take off their clothes and go skinny dipping in the frigid, ice-cold waters of Lake Ontario. As Radcliffe explained to ET Canada's Rick Campanelli, it's a scene that could have turned out very differently had he allowed his addiction to Priest's Burgers get the better of him.

”It’s quite simply the best burger I’ve had," Radcliffe said of the Toronto burger joint. "It’s a real shame I don’t live in Toronto. Actually, it’s for the best because I would be 500 pounds.”

Asked if he watches what he eats, Radcliffe replied, "I have an awareness of it. I go to the gym and try to keep vaguely in shape because I’m on camera. Not for any one else but for yourself, because you have to watch yourself on camera…I still eat really poorly, my diet is terrible, but I try not to eat tons of it."

About Kill Your Darlings:

The story of the Beat Generation is well documented in cinema, but rarely has it been rendered with such originality and fervour as in John Krokidas’ striking debut, Kill Your Darlings. Following the trails of a young Allen Ginsberg as he navigates his way through freshman year at Colombia in 1944, the film recounts his burgeoning friendships with William Burroughs and Jack Kerouac, and his increasingly noxious relationship with the volatile Lucien Carr; to whom Ginsberg would later dedicate his celebrated poem ‘Howl’. In the lead role, Daniel Radcliffe shines as the infamous young poet desperate to escape from his academic prison and figure out the man he wants to be. If Radcliffe is a revelation, then so too is director Krokidas, who infuses each scene with an urgency and sense of discovery that makes it so visually distinctive without ever overshadowing the emotional authenticity that exists at its core.
