Daniel Radcliffe says reading comments about himself in Alan Rickman’s diaries was ‘lovely and nostalgic’

It was very sweet to read all of that Radcliffe said. Daniel Radcliffe has shared his own experience of reading Alan Rickmans posthumously published diaries.





The late actor who played Severus Snape in the Harry Potter films and died in 2016 kept a pocket diary from 1972. They were published in October in a memoir titled Madly Deeply The Alan Rickman Diaries. Appearing on Watch What Happens Live on Monday 7 November Radcliffe was asked about reading about filming the fantasy series from his older co stars perspective.


All the stuff that Alan wrote it was very lovely and nostalgic reading his comments about us being like These kids need to learn their lines thats kind of a nightmare right now all of that stuff Radcliffe said.It went through to us meeting when I was over here doing a play and we met. It was very sweet to read all of that .Elsewhere on the show Radcliffe spoke about another late Harry Potter star as he was asked to share his favourite memory of Robbie Coltrane.


Robbie was amazing at keeping us particularly when we were very young entertained. Those early films were just about keeping a lot of 10 year olds up and ready so he was cracking jokes and incredibly funny. There was one period on the third film where we were just getting horizontal rain. We were supposed to have been there for three weeks we ended up being there for six weeks and we were just sat around in Hagrids hut and he would be telling jokes to us all and the crew that were in there  It was very lovely. Very sad he has gone.


Radcliffes next role is as musical parody artist Al Yankovic in biopic Weird The Al Yankovic Story. Yankovic has praised the former child star for his performance saying that Radcliffe had  absolutely nailed the role. In a four star review The Independents Clarisse Loughrey echoed this writing that Radcliffe was pitch perfect as Yankovic.
