The great thing about filming a film is that you all have your final day's shooting, but you always know that you're all going to be coming back for the premiere.

I never really looked at it like that, but it's true. It's weird that it's been half my life. Because I lead these two separate lives. I've got my life and Harry Potter, where I travel the world, I make films, I meet amazing people, I do press junkets and stuff. And then I go back home to Leeds, where I live, and I've got the same friends from before. I still go to the pub. I still go to watch the football, soccer. And I go shopping at my local shop.

I can't wait to go back home and disappear into relative obscurity for a bit. I just want to go back to my house and just get away from it all for a bit. It's so flattering to hear people say nice things about the performance, about the Harry Potter film. It's great. Don't get me wrong. I'm not ashamed of it. I'm not shunning it. It's just been such a bubble I've been in, with these promotions.

Alan Rickman told me to do a play, so I did. Because when Alan Rickman tells you do something, you go and do it.

What I've found is that stage is very much a foundation of acting. It's where it all began and you're working with that repetition.

It's always been my dream to be in a war film.

The great thing as an actor is that I don't know what my agent is going to call me with next.
