Minor Thing Secret About Daniel Radcliffe

Daniel Radcliffe had to decide, and he didn't make that decision lightly, what his first starring film role would be after the "Harry Potter" franchise ended in 2011. Despite demonstrating his acting range by starring in "Equus" and "How to Succeed in Business" on Broadway, the pressure was on for Radcliffe to prove he could play more than Potter on the big screen.

"The Woman in Black," a dark thriller about a recently widowed father who is haunted by his wife's death, has chosen by him . The movie will be in theaters Feb. 3. "I never expected the first thing I did after `Potter' to be a horror film or anything like that. That was one of the reasons it was intriguing to me as well because it was so unexpected," Radcliffe said in a recent interview. Growing up fast, getting praise from actor Sean Connery, who starred in James Bond films, and why he isn't ready to marry his longtime girlfriend, that's what he also talked about.
