A lot of people struggle in their younger years, and I think people can relate to that.

Thinking

Years

Alan Rickman told me to do a play, so I did. Because when Alan Rickman tells you do something, you go and do it.

Play

Alan Rickman, who was mentored me a lot. He was very keen to offer his opinions on stuff. Not in a pretentious way. Not in a patronizing way.

At least I like to keep it the same. That’s why I’ve got all the same friends. That’s why I go back to Leeds as much as possible. I don’t know if you know much about England, but Yorkshire is a very sobering place. In the North. It’s very gritty. Old mining villages. And people don’t really care about celebrities up there. And it’s great. And that’s why I get back there whenever I can. ‘Cause it keeps me very grounded, and it keeps my life very normal, whatever that is.

At that age, filming Harry Potter, I never contemplated. I just went in there and did my acting. I never thought, “What’s the character actually feeling here? What’s he trying to get across?” And never looked at it from that classically trained actor’s point of view. And so when Jason Isaacs started throwing up these ideas, I thought, “Whoa. What an interesting way to look at acting.” Which is why, again, I would do theater.

Don’t get paparazzi following me everywhere. My life there is exactly the same as it would have been if I had not been in Harry Potter. So for me, Harry Potter isn’t something that changed my life. It’s just something I did that was a lot of fun, and I got to experience amazing things from. But my actual, personal life is the same.

Emma Watson was saying the other day that when Helena Bonham Carter was becoming Hermione, or trying to become her for the polyjuice-potion sequence, she was trying to take on Emma’s mannerisms, and she was asking Emma questions like, “What’s Hermione’s favorite color?” Because she wanted to absorb all this information and to know, in here touches temple what she was like. And as I’ve tried to develop as an actor, I see that these things, however much they seem insignificant… By knowing what’s Neville’s Longbottom favorite Beatles song, you can know so much!
