Daniel Radcliffe had one of the best start when he came as Harry Potter in the global franchise. Radcliffe wanted to diversify his career with weird and interesting roles in the last 10 years to take break from Harry Potter type roles.

In a recent chat with Comicbook, the 32-year-old actor opened up about playing the latest addition to his variety of roles, the billionaire in his recent release The Lost City.

Radcliffe explained, “I’ve got a reputation for being kind of weird in the things I want to do, which is lovely and weird, but gets weird, which is great.” He noted, “But generally speaking, I think the way I saw it after Potter was that for every person that did only see me as one thing, there was somebody out there who was excited by the chance to show me as something else.

Some directors said, ‘Oh, he’s only Harry Potter,’ and some directors to be like, ‘Oh, I’d love to reinvent him in a way for the world.’ So, you know, it goes both ways.”

Meanwhile, Radcliffe loved playing a villain for the first time and expressed his joy in portraying the part in the film.

However, the highlight of the movie for Radcliffe was to play opposite Sandra Bullock who had been an actress he had grown up watching. Radcliffe remarked that the experience for him was “very weird and intimidating but incredibly cool.”
