Daniel Radcliffe Reveals He Broke A Lot of Wands, Not Glasses While Filming "Harry Potter"
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Daniel Radcliffe just shut down a rumor about his time filming Harry Potter, but confirmed another while stopping by on Hot Ones.
The movie superstar ended up being the final guest on the show's 13th season and host Sean Evans took the time to ask him some burning Harry Potter questions. He asked if it was true whether or not he ended up breaking 160 pairs of glasses on set and 60-70 wands.
"I would definitely say they are exaggerated. The glasses one massively so. I definitely didn't break the glasses that often at all, I don't think. The wands I definitely broke a lot because I would just like drum on my legs with it all the time and do that incessantly," he revealed. "Probably like once every three or four weeks it would just weaken to the point where it snapped and then I would say I was very sorry to the prop master and he would give me a look like, 'Please stop drumming.' They were very, very sweet with us and tolerated more that I hoped they would from an adult actor."
He also opened up about filming the transfiguration class scenes in Professor McGonagall's room in Chamber of Secrets.
"I have to tell this story. You've asked about such a specific thing in that McGonagall classroom. I definitely remember that there were a lot of animals. They must have had upwards of 60 there. I don't imagine they were often all on set together. But, definitely in that scene, in the transfiguration classroom, there was a monkey of some kind in a cage that did just start jerking off relentlessly. But generally speaking the animals were very well behaved. Although, I think Rupert maybe got peed on by a bat at one point. I got away pretty cleanly after that."
