A new post on Daniel's official Google+ page. And today is it a new Take Me Back Tuesday photo. This one was taken at the Turner Upfront event in promotion of Miracle Workers in New York earlier this year.

ICYMI: The news you heard first via Daniel J Radcliffe Holland, since I stumbled upon it yesterday: Mercurial Pictures (based in South Africa) has announced on Facebook that Escape from Pretoria will have a release in 2020. This would mean that principal photography is set to start next year.

Daniel Radcliffe is Tim Jenkin in ESCAPE FROM PRETORIA
Release 2020. Another Mercurial Pictures co-production.

PSG (Positive Celebrity Gossip) magazine had the chance to ask Daniel a few questions in a short exclusive interview.

Favorite characters in a film

“Obviously, I loved playing Harry and those 10-years were very special, but my favorite character has to be ‘Manny,’ in Swiss Army Man. He’s a sweet, dead weirdo and it was awesome to play him!”

Summorize Swiss Army Man

What happens when a hopeless man stranded on a deserted island befriends a dead body? Well, they go on a surreal journey to get home.

 More Swiss Army Man

“Oh, good; me too. If I had to burn every other scene I’ve ever done in my career and leave one, it would be the bus scene in Swiss Army Man. It’s the best six minutes I’ve ever been involved with onscreen.”

 Favorite charity

 “The Trevor Project. What they do is vital and thankfully more and more people seem to be becoming aware of them.”

 What Daniel Radcliffe would tell the whole world if he could, in thirty seconds.

“I have to quote one of my favourite authors (Kurt Vonnegut) here: ‘“There’s only one rule that I know of, babies—God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’” So, yeah that’s it really, just be kind, thanks!”

The official Harry Potter Facebook page shared a new video called "Daniel Radcliffe on Ralph Fiennes" which features quotes from Daniel.


This video is also shared on Facebook.

Daniel recorded a video message in promotion of Beast of Burden (Опасное задание) for Russia's Ykt Geek Fest which takes place on 26th August 2018.

The message (vk.com/yktgeekfest):

Distributors Cinemaus Studio and Kinologistika have released a video message from Daniel regarding the release of Beast of Burden in Russia (Опасное задание), Kazakhstan and Ukraine this week.

He mentions the Skype interview that took place yesterday and says that there will be a second competition coming up soon where you can win some signed journals.

Update: 16th August 2018. Read more about the second competition. Ends 30th August 2018 2nd September 2018.
Update: 2nd September 2018. The winners have been announced.

The message (Instagram):

Jess Wade, physicist at Imperial College London, did start a crowdfunding campaign to raise £20,000 to buy a copy of Inferior by Angela Saini for every state school in the UK.

Daniel was supposed to record a message in support of the campaign and to get people excited but... they already raised more than the target! (in 12 days). Daniel mentioned the book a few times in interviews, most recent earlier this year: W magazine. The JustGiving page: justgiving.com/crowdfunding/inferior

Update: 23rd November 2018. Jess Wade backstage at The Lifespan of a Fact. Photo via Facebook.

Here's what he has recorded now (Jess Wade, Twitter):

In 12 days you all donated enough to get a copy of @AngelaDSaini’s #Inferior in every school in the 🇬🇧 and 🇮🇪. Thank you for helping to empower young people to challenge bias. Thank you @4thEstateBooks. I don’t have the words to express how grateful I am, so... 😅💕 pic.twitter.com/8azfUlD1Wr

Special effects makeup artist Stephen Murphy shared some photos on Instagram of the impressive work he did on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1 and 2 (2010/2011).

More Potter! Harry is zapped in the face, which puffs up like a bee sting. Three different stages sculpted by myself and Kate Hill, eyebrows punched by Paula Eden, applied by myself with Paula Eden, for Nick Dudman’s MUFX department Epilogue scene.

More Potter nostalgia! This was a bit of a tricky one. At the end of ‘Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows’, in 2010 the three kids had to age to late 30’s. They were around 17 at the time. Pieces were sculpted by Martin Rezard and myself (forehead, jowls crows feet), and I applied Dan’s with Paula Eden (who also punched the eyebrows.. again!)
Alas, it wasn’t used in the film. #harrypotter #danielradcliffe #nickdudman #ppipremiereproducts

The three winners of the Russian Beast of Burden (Опасное задание) competition had the Skype interview session with Daniel today. For now there is only a short clip online.

Cinemaus Studio and Kinologistika have announced that they will share a video soon, but without sound since the conversation was personal. I'll add the video here when it's online.

"I can never believe that there would be people dedicated enough to be fans of me".

In the clip below he mentions that he is scruffy for a job (I assume for Miracle Workers re-shoots. I believe I did read that somewhere)

Update: 15th August 2018. One more clip below. Two more here. Plus I have added the video which has no sound (but it does have music).
Update: 19th October 2019. A longer interview video.
