Daniel Radcliffe could easily be a diva. After all, Radcliffe is twenty-one, a multi-millionaire, and he’s famous in every corner of the globe because director Chris Columbus cast him as Harry Potter almost ten years ago.
But he’s not a diva. In fact, he’s as far from that label as possible. Here’s an example of who Radcliffe is: While on the set of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows earlier this year outside London, I was waiting with a few other online reporters for Radcliffe to arrive for an interview. He was running a bit late (he is in almost every shot of the movie!) and when he finally showed up, he had run to meet us and after catching his breath, he apologized because he felt bad for making us wait. I’ve done a lot of set visits when someone is running late, but I’ve never seen the main star run to do an interview and then apologize. But that’s who Radcliffe is.
