Daniel Radcliffe has revealed that he is taking ballet classes in an effort to protect his career after his Harry Potter glory days have ended.
The 19-year-old explained to Esquire magazine that he knows he will soon have to compete with other actors his age when they have completed their training in drama schools which have taught them to sing and dance. He told Esquire magazine that he sees ballet as a way to make himself "as viable a choice for any part" as possible.
Tomorrow (July 7) Radcliffe will be in London for the premier of the latest Potter installment, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. He will be joined by co-stars Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, who has just recovered from swine flu.
