Daniel Radcliffe gets 'intensely embarrassed' about 'Harry Potter' acting

"It's hard to separate my relationship with Harry from my relationship with the films as a whole," Radcliffe said during this exclusive conversation with Wood (h/t Digital Spy). "I'm incredibly grateful for the experience. It showed me what I want to do with the rest of my life. To find out early on what you love is really lucky."

The 31-year-old continued: "I'm intensely embarrassed by some of the acting, obviously [laughs], but yeah, it's like asking, 'How do you feel about your teenage years?' There's so much in there that it's almost impossible to single out one feeling."

Radcliffe was 12 years old when the world was introduced to him as Potter in the franchise's first film, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. The England native continued alongside Emma Watson's Hermoine Granger and Rupert Grint's Ron Weasley for the duration of the series' eight-film run, ending with 2011's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows: Part 2. Since then, Radcliffe has continued acting in projects such as Horns (2013), What If (2013) and Miracle Workers (2019-20).

Wood, meanwhile, starred across the Lord of the Rings trilogy as Frodo Baggins from 2001-03. The 40-year-old reprised his role for The Hobbit. He also found success in television series Wilfred (2011-14) and Star Wars Resistance (2018-20), among other roles.
