The Gamechangers: Interview with Daniel Radcliffe

The BBC has released an interview with Daniel Radcliffe online via their media website in promotion of The Gamechangers. Read more at bbc.co.uk.

Is The Gamechangers your first BBC Project? 
Actually my first ever job was playing young David in David Copperfield for the BBC in 1999. It was amazing, the cast was phenomenal: Emilia Fox, Pauline Quirke, Maggie Smith, Bob Hoskins, Imelda Staunton, Paul Whitehouse, Ian McKellan, Zoe Wanamaker… the list goes on and on.

Lots of people that I ended up working with on Harry Potter years later. It was an amazing starting ground and for a lot of people would have been the best cast they ever worked with. One day on set, the director told me, “Dan, you’re never going to be in something with this level of cast ever again.” I’ve reminded him of this several times since! He just got really unlucky as he could have said that to anyone else and he'd have been right! Maggie (Smith) played my aunt in it and she was the person who recommended me for Harry Potter initially.

The BBC’s Make it Digital campaign hopes to inspire a new generation to be creative with coding. Why is this important for the future?
Because I don't understand it and there's a lot of 'me's out there, and if the future population of the country is like me, we're doomed!! Don't be like me… Make it Digital!!!
