"Cockroaches really freak me out," Radcliffe admitted when TF caught up with him in New York. "We don’t seem to have nearly as many of them in England as we do [in America]!"

His fear of anthropoids worries him on his travels round the world. "All those places [that have insects] are off my list! I do like Australia though - but lying in the thick of it is just the world’s largest collection of poisonous things!"

Dan-Rad also admits to professional terror. Currently performing on Broadway in How to Succeed In Business Without Even Trying, Radcliffe fears the horror of a mid-week empty house. "On a Wednesday matinee I’m thinking 'Oh God I hope there’s more than 500 people out there!'"

"About 800 people is a good audience, anything less and you can hear your voice bouncing back at you. But on those days you learn so much about yourself and your stamina and your mental will so it’s been great for me."

MTV: This is your first full year working outside "Harry Potter." How has it been?
Daniel Radcliffe: It's been a great first year away from "Potter." It's been very successful. I've done some work I'm really proud of in that time, particularly onstage in "How to Succeed." Just the process of doing it and doing it and doing it, I've got so much better, I think, during the run, as is the way it should be. It's been a great year, but I think next year is the big one for me. "The Woman in Black" is coming out, and I've also got a couple other things I'll be doing. The next two or three years are going to be pretty important, I think, and if [2011] is not a breakout year, it's a breakaway year.

While he did promotion for The Woman in Black with International press this week, he said some very interesting quotes about a possible new role in 2012. TÊTU magazine talked with Dan and he said the following.

"The star of Harry Potter released he was "very likely" to play a gay character in a movie to come out in the course of next year. "But I will say no more," he told TÊTU.

Radcliffe prefers to anticipate the hype around this future role: "Many things will be said about the gay thing, but I prefer to say now that this project is much more than that."

As for the prospect of kissing a boy? "I'm not sure that I would like it," he smiles. "But I guess I'll find out."

I personally think it's intersting because it's something so different again

The answer:

"Of the Potter films? Seven, Part 2. The last one. It's the best film, I think. Well, no, it's the best combination of acting, directing, writing, effects ... everything. I think the finest example of those in a Potter film is the last one, where they all came together. Because, you know, I think some of the coolest directorial stuff was on number three [the Alfonso Cuaron-directed 'The Prisoner of Azkaban'], but we weren't as good then. So I wouldn't like you to take that one. Whereas there's some amazing stuff that [director] David [Yates] did in the last film and now we're slightly, you know, more up to scratch. So that would be the one that I would tell you to take with you.

"But I would also say ... I would also say to take something else. I don't know, take 'A Matter of Life and Death.' That's my favorite film, for me."

And while we are talking Harry Potter, another on set photo with Maggie Smith which appeared online is to be seen below.
