Daniel Radcliffe: TV Guide News

A Sunday for the History Books | Roush Dispatch | 4/18/2008
I love it when TV can be both very, very good as well as good for you. Such is the case with a logjam of terrific historical dramas competing for attention this Sunday. Two of them had me fighting back tears (and occasionally losing the fight), and then there’s Showtime’s The Tudors, that stimulating royal tonic of sex, religion and other courtly intrigues. Not a lot of boo-hooing while watching this Henry VIII romp, but rarely a dull moment, either.The quality honors this weekend go to HBO and PBS. HBO for concluding its remarkable John Adams miniseries with an episode of quiet, pained humanity as the nation’s second president (Paul Giamatti) goes into retirement with about as much grace—which is to say, very little—as he conducted himself in the political arena. Grumpy, discontent, impatient to the end and convinced he’ll be forgotten by time, John never lets up. There’s a terrific scene in which he’s invited, in his 90s, to view the... read more

Radcliffe on Broadway? See Nude in September! | Today's News: Our Take | 4/9/2008
A Broadway staging of Equus, the West End revival that last year made headlines due to Daniel Radcliffe's many minutes of onstage nudity, has been scheduled to start previews Sept. 5 at the Broadhurst Theatre. Opening night is set for Sept. 25. In Equus, the erstwhile Harry Potter plays a disturbed stable hand. Tony winner Richard Griffiths (The History Boys), who will also reprise his role from the London production, plays his shrink. — MWM read more
Daniel Radcliffe to TV Guide: Split Potter Finale a "Positive Thing" | Today's News: Our Take | 3/13/2008
Daniel Radcliffe says he "had an inkling" that one of cinema's biggest franchises would cleave its finale into two films, but still cheers the official decision to turn Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows into a two-part series-ender. "It's a really positive thing," the actor told TV Guide during a call to promote Masterpiece Classic: My Boy Jack (airing April 20 on PBS). "And I think the fans will appreciate that more than had we tried to make it into one film. We'd have to cram so much in there and actually have to skip over some things. And in this seventh book, there are a lot of things you can't afford to skip over."That's not to say that director David Yates and the writers don't have some work cut out for them. "The challenge now is for them to find out where the breaking point is between the two films," says Radcliffe, "because I don't think there is an obvious place [to do so]."The timetable for the big finale? "When I finish the sixth film [Half-Blood Prince], which I'm... read more
Just Like Magic: Next Potter Film Multiplies | Today's News: Our Take | 3/13/2008
Harry Potter fans at the edge of their seats in anticipation of the final film installment are getting two movies instead of one. Warner Brothers said Wednesday that the series' final book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, is so long — tallying 784 pages — that the filmmakers decided to split it into two pieces. According to the Reporter, instead of compromising the storyline with excisions or making an exceptionally long movie, the flick, to become parts one and two, will be shot back-to-back for releases in November 2010 and May 2011, respectively. J.K. Rowling's Hallows sold more than 11 million copies in its first 24 hours on bookshelves last fall, so the film version x 2 seems to = excellent profits for Warners, plus extra thrills for filmgoers (especially since teen superstar Daniel Radcliffe's signed on). Are you excited for Harry times two? Or ready for Hogwarts to wrap it up? — Anna Dimond read more
