Back in mid-July we told you that Dan would appear at TimesTalk in NYC to promote and discuss his upcoming performance in Equus. A staff member of Snitch Seeker was present at the event and took lots of notes from what Dan had to say. In their report, we learn a lot about Equus and some information concerning Half-Blood Prince. The most timely thing learned about Half-Blood Prince was a comment from Dan on the delay, which he says he found out about only 24 hours before everyone else. He also asked everyone to not blame him for the delay. Read the full report here!

Good some news about something other than Alan Horn..

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-19 23:35:54

Course its not Dans fault for the delay. Its Emmas! Just kidding!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-19 23:44:46

Good one! I wonder why we havent heard about the kiss with Ginny?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-19 23:44:55

Well, were getting information at least so thats good, but its still saddening!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-19 23:46:50

Man- I didnt put much stock in him until recently (as an actor or otherwise), but Danis very poised. It makes me happy, you know? Im okay with him being Harry... finally (Only, what, seven years late?).

Awwww! As if anybody would blame Dan for The Delay! ...And if anyone has, I will personally smack them myself.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-19 23:54:30

Put a stake in WBs heart and boycott The Watchmen! Dan should have expressed strong solidarity with the fans! Its not as if WB can fire him from the last two movies.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-19 23:58:52

We know its not Dans fault. Nobodys to blame but WB...

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 00:00:12

AMAZING INTERVIEW!! thanx snitch seaker!! Davey p.s. Emma did sign right??

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 00:01:41

OMG!!!! czarfore I was just seeking the same thing !!! I just got the comic before the delay news because of all the fuss, and I love it, and I was like, this is gonna be huge and WB is expecting huge profits for this movie. We should so boycott Watchmen, but most of the fans are like 40 years old still living at home with mom. lol

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 00:46:29

You guys are incredibly arrogant and obnoxious to be calling for a boycott of Watchmen just because WB moved the HBP release date. Im actually in the middle of reading Watchmen right now for the first time, and I like it a lot. As for avadakedavratheWBs comment "most of the fans are like 40 years old still living at home with mom." well thats obviously not true, and is an extremely ignorant thing to say. Stop acting like a bunch of jack@sses and grow up.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 01:01:27

I would never think it was Dans fault for the delay & I think its horrible for WB to even say that they have an issue with him appearing nude in a play. He was in the play last year when Order of the Phoenix came out so whats the big deal? They are just trying to blame someone else because they screwed up. WB stinks

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 01:23:37

yertletheturtleq: WB never said they had an issue with Dan appearing nude in a play. Did you even read the article?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 02:11:30

of course hes not going to lash out against the studio, its kind of a no-brainer. yertletheturtleq, i dont know where youre getting your news from, but its certainly not the news ive been seeing on mugglenet.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 02:38:39

We dont blame Dan (or any of the other actors), we blame the greedy WB.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 04:36:26

ooh. whod blame Dan?! he roxx! if any1z 2 blame itz WB! da hel wid thm. . .

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 04:57:24

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE IF DAN, EMMA AND RUPERT COULD HAVE MADE A STAND AND STUCK UP FOR THEIR LOYAL FANS, WHAT ARE WB GOING TO DO? FIRE THEM HAA. BUT I WOULD NEVER BLAME THEM FOR THIS. WB ARE THE ONLY ONES TO BLAME

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 05:06:06

Why would we blame Dan? If its because of the Equus thing then he has no need to worry. In my opinion if the role in Equus was going to affect the Harry Potter fandom it should have affected it when Equus opened in London. I respect Daniel for making the decision to play Alan Strang. It shows that hes not just "Harry Potter" but he can be anyone! Well done Daniel! To Hermie1958- theyre going to ruin the wow factor of the kiss between Harry and Ginny. BOO TO WB!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 06:05:14

Its wrong of WB not to quash that stupid rumour about Dan immediately. Although i suppose it helps to deflect the heat from them. Dispicable. No one can blame the actors, its becasue of WBs greed that the film got delayed. I do think we should boycott their other films. Its not jus the delay of HP but the whole principle we should stand against. These huge corporations should learn not to bite the hand that feeds them!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 06:41:04

HAHAHAHA! its hilarious. First on the Alan Horn statement, everyone is all like "BURN girl BURN!" and on Dan its more like "naaw! of course we dont blame wittle Hawwyyy." :D Why would we blame him? hes done nothing but being an awesome Harry for us. :> It would be funny if we found out that Daniel was the one who had completely caused the delay, like threathened WB that if they didnt delay it, he would go all crazy!Harry!POA and say "Ni" over and over again. Those of you whove seen monty python the holy grail will understand at least. hehu

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 07:49:12

I wouldnt blame you for anything Dan!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 08:46:44

Dude! we dont blame YOU! awwww, dont think that!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 09:22:52

Wed never blame you Dan! Or Rupert and Emma for that matter.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 10:39:50

I wish there was a way we could tell him we dont blame him. I hope he gets the message.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 10:44:55

oOo nice stubble I might get to see equus (so excited)! Dan Radcliffe is soo smart, and yet he thinks that we all get our news from Fox :P instead of Mugglenet! nobody blames you, dan!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 10:57:27

Who would blame Dan? He was probably as shocked as us. Niiiice interview!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 11:12:13

Yes, at least its something good! A new interview with Dan (or any other actor - Id like one with Evanna or Emma) is never wrong :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 11:37:47

What can I say???? HOOOOOOOOOTTTT!!!!!!!!!! : )

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 12:02:11

awww nobody would blame dan for the delay, we knw its not his fault. ITS WB >=(!!!!!!!!! oh and btw, OMG HE IS HOT (dan of course)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 14:34:34

omg dan totally not r fault...really hott picture of him too (;

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 15:23:01

Who would blame him? Hes just an actor who gets paid to play in the movie.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 15:41:11

NO-ONE IS TO BE BLAMED, BUT WB!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 15:56:11

Nope Dan I dont blame you at all, no one should, like everyones saying its Warner brothers fault! Great interview, would love to see equus, and I hope they do do that scene in DH film with Sirius, James, Lily and Lupin in the forest, they cant possibly leave it out!!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 16:24:55

I dont blame Dan! Or any of the actors, for that matter. We all know who is really behind this movie delay. I kind of feel bad that Dan actually thinks people are actually blaming him! The real fans know not to, at least.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 16:32:36

WTF?! They were originally going to shoot HP in LA!?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 17:24:51

aww no one would blame dan! or any of the actors. we love them

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 19:22:40

Ohh, Dan is so nice! I love him to bits (I mean that as in "I wish he was my brother" - not the other kind of sick infatuation some people seem to have with him). As if anyone would blame him (or any of the cast for that matter). Its hardly their fault that Warner Brothers are a pack of selfish greedy bastards.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 20:08:01

WE SHOULD TOTALLY BOYCOTT WATCHMEN BECAUSE THEY SHOULD HAVE PUSHED IT BACK 3 MONTHS FROM MARCH RATHER THEN MOVE HARRY POTTER 8 MONTHS FROM NOVEMBER I MEAN THEY WOULD BOTH BE GOOD SUMMER BLOCK BUSTERS SO Y NOT MOVE WATCHMEN INSTEAD!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 20:46:37

You cant help but love this guy! Of course we dont blame him for the delay. I cant wait to see him in Equus in November. I know he will be absolutely brilliant!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-20 21:37:18

Its great to see that the Harry Potter experience has helped both Dan and Emma mature into wonderful individuals and I sincerely hope all of the up and coming actors {dan and emma especially] have excellent careers ahead of them. Dan is such a wonderful guy . And those who think that his being in equus will harm the films really need to take another look because dan is mature enough to be doing both and not have a ego as big as the sky. Good luck Dan rock on

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-21 22:40:19

Why blame Dan? He has no part in this. Its all Warner Brothers fault anyways.....

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 12:50:02

That was a good interview. I dont think anyone blamed Dan. It wasnt his choice to change the date.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-08-22 20:02:43

It will be wrong to blame the actors and actresses only because the movie is delay or is more than they (producers) plan to make. If we have to blame someone is .... I do not know but some has to be blame.
