I was very sad to leave Harry Potter but equally there will be an element of excitement about the idea that a script might come in and I don't have to go: "I'm sorry, I'm kind of busy for the next four years." The idea of that is quite exciting.
There were a few years there when I was just so enamored with the idea of living some sort of famous person's lifestyle that really isn't suited to me.
My preparation is mainly just knowing the lines and getting in and knowing where your character is, knowing what it's about and having ideas that you can put in on the day.
I like the idea of not having to do stuff for the money, and if I want to, I can pick indie projects for the rest of my life and be quite happy doing that.
I have no idea how much money I've got.
Thing is, it's very easy to be righteous from a distance. It's his life. It's not my business to say what is wrong or right.
To be honest, I don't actually know how much at this point, ... I don't, really. In a way, I think that's right. It's not something that affects the way I think about things.
We are older now, ... so it is good for us to feel like we're not just child actors any more. We've grown up and are now able to make our own acting decisions.
I think I'm highly normal. I'm attending school after acting, I'm going out with friends, going to the cinema - I'm just doing everything a normal teenager does. People think I can't leave the house without being in a crowd of fans - but that's not true. I'm able to do more things than people might think.
I thought it was really weird seeing my face up on the screen.
We could get away with more because we were a bit younger.
I don't think I'd have the stamina, skill or ability to write a novel, but I'd love to write short stories and poetry, because those are my two passions.
If this doesn't get you exhilarated, then nothing in life will excite you,
People would have been disappointed had it not got an M-rating, or not a higher rating than it had got in the past,
