Teacher:In this task, you are given a text of many news articles seperated by special token "|||||". Your task is to summarize them.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: "I still get people saying, 'Are there going to be any more movies?' And now I can say, 'There are actually are,'" Radcliffe admitted to ET, adding, "But I'm not going to be in them." 
  
 Fantastic Beasts is about the adventures of writer Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) in New York's secret community of witches and wizards, 70 years before Harry Potter reads his book in school. 
  
 Radcliffe says some of his fans pity him after hearing he won't be appearing in the movie. "And they're like, 'Oh sorry,' and I'm like, 'They're set in the past. Don't worry about it!'" 
  
 He quipped that being in all eight of the original Harry Potter films was enough for him. "Yeah, eight was cool," he told ET. 
  
 While he may not end up in the highly anticipated Fantastic Beasts, Radcliffe did disclose that the film -- set to hit theaters in 2016 -- will probably start filming "soon." 
  
 Radcliffe also isn't above talking all about Harry Potter, even though the final film premiered back in 2011. "I would be crazy if I minded talking about it," he said. 
  
 Radcliffe was at Comic-Con promoting his upcoming movie Victor Frankenstein alongside his co-star James McAvoy. The horror movie hits theaters Nov. 25. |||||  
  
 Q3 
  
 Why hasn’t the appeal faded? 
  
 Because the stories are great! A huge part of our culture now is that if something becomes successful there’s a backlash. Harry Potter didn’t have that. There are people who don’t want to read it, but the number of people who actively dislike it is very low. The books are great, and they came along at the perfect moment, when there was a fear, because of the rise of computer games, that reading was going to become a thing of the past. When kids suddenly found these books, it was something everyone could get behind as a global populace. 
  
  
  
 Q4 
  
 You’ve been very forthright about the fact that you drank heavily between the ages of 18 and 20. 
  
 Was that a reaction to public scrutiny? 
  
 Anytime I’d go out to dance, camera phones would come out. That would make me very self-conscious, and what’s the easiest way to escape being self-conscious? Alcohol is a quick way of doing that. So it was related in that way. A few years ago there was a TV ad that showed a lot of inventors, including a guy who invented the camera phone. He was smiling smugly into the camera, and I was just like, Fuck you. What have you wrought? [laughs] Camera phones are definitely not my favorite. 
  
  
  
 Q5 
  
 You’ve said you were an “annoying, loud, inappropriate, messy drunk.” Can you tell us in what ways you were messy? 
  
 No, no, no. I’ve given way too much. It becomes painful to watch your personal issues that you’ve tried to be sincere about get turned into fodder for TV gossip shows. I was forthright about it, as you said, but once you start talking about this, that’s all you talk about. I can say lots of well-meaning stuff—why it happened and how I stopped—for three hours, and the headline would be DRUNK ON THE SET OF HARRY POTTER. So I don’t talk about it as much now. 
  
  
  
 Q6 
  
 In the new movie Victor Frankenstein, you play the hunchbacked assistant Igor. As an actor, what’s the appeal of playing someone malformed? 
  
 It’s not like, Oh great, how can I give myself terrible back pain for the next few months? It’s more that you embrace the physical challenge. If you do something that puts you in a little bit of pain, it makes you feel as though you’re working slightly harder than you normally do as an actor. I did the play The Cripple of Inishmaan for four months in London and never had any physical problems. Doing what I did on Frankenstein for three weeks was a fucker. There’s a crick in my neck now that was not there before. 
  
  
  
 Q7 
  
 You’re a small guy. Does your size limit the roles you can play? 
  
 I don’t think so. Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise have very different careers, and they’re both about the same height as I am. I could play a soldier. The minimum height for a marine is five feet, and I’m well above that. If you’re asking, “Can you play a really fucking tall person?” No, obviously not. [laughs] Can I play a black guy? For similar reasons, no. I couldn’t play something I wouldn’t take myself seriously in. I wouldn’t be able to take myself seriously as the quarterback in a football movie, which is my one legitimate gripe. I would love to be in a football movie. The only part I would get is the general manager. 
  
  
  
 Q8 
  
 You’ve said that your performance in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the fifth movie in the series, was your best, but you hate watching yourself in the sixth, The Half-Blood Prince. How did your best and worst performances come back-to-back? 
  
 In every movie up to the sixth one, you can see a big step forward in my acting. And then it stopped, or went backward maybe, in the sixth film. I really enjoyed my performance in the fifth—part of it was how much I worked with people like Gary Oldman and David Thewlis. On the sixth, I remember watching it and thinking, Wow, there’s been no growth. You’re watching a mistake you made every day for 11 months—that’s the way I saw it. I had the idea that Harry was like a soldier traumatized by war, and as a result of that, he shuts down emotionally. That’s not a bad idea, but it’s not the most interesting thing to watch for two and a half hours. 
  
  
  
 Q9 
  
 You met your girlfriend, Erin Darke, when you were both in the movie Kill Your Darlings. There’s a scene in which her character gives your character a blow job in a library. Were you already dating at that point? 
  
 No. That’s a wonderful record of us flirting for the first time. There’s no acting going on—not from my end, anyway. There’s a moment when she makes me laugh, and I’m laughing as me and not as my character. She was incredibly funny and smart. I knew I was in trouble. 
  
  
  
 Q10 
  
 How did her father end up telling the press that you weren’t engaged to his daughter? 
  
 When I visited her home last Christmas, there was a media storm in Michigan. We were sitting in her dad’s living room, and the phone rang. Her dad said, “Um, it’s the Detroit Free Press.” They were calling about a rumor that we had gone there to get married on the shores of Lake Michigan. What was great was they got his number because he’s a subscriber. [laughs] I suddenly had that moment of, Oh, my weird life is now impacting your life. I felt really bad. Wonderfully, they found it funny. I have to say, I don’t normally read articles about me, but I read all of them because they were so nice. “He ate at a Bob Evans! He bought a T-shirt in downtown Flint!” These journalists in Michigan were so happy that I had a nice time there. Normally I deal with the British tabloids, so this was the sweetest media thing that ever happened to me. 
  
 It feels like I get recognized more now. Here’s what’s scary: If you were 14 when the first film came out, you’d now be almost in your 30s and could well have a child under 10 whom you’re now introducing to Harry Potter. We’re already getting the next generation. That’s just bizarre. It’s never going away. |||||
Student:
Daniel Radcliffe talks Harry Potter, being short, and some slightly less-SFW topics in an endlessly entertaining Playboy interview. Our favorite quotes: On whether being short limits his roles: "'Can you play a really f---ing tall person?' No, obviously not. Can I play a black guy? For similar reasons, no. I couldn’t play something I wouldn’t take myself seriously in. I wouldn’t be able to take myself seriously as the quarterback in a football movie, which is my one legitimate gripe. I would love to be in a football movie. The only part I would get is the general manager." On meeting his girlfriend while filming a movie in which her character gives his character a blow job: "That’s a wonderful record of us flirting for the first time. There’s no acting going on—not from my end, anyway. There’s a moment when she makes me laugh, and I’m laughing as me and not as my character. I knew I was in trouble." On whether he "fluffed" while doing Equus on Broadway, which required him to be naked much of the time: "Dude, there was no opportunity for fluffing. I was onstage for the entire show, and I ran around naked for 10 minutes in a scene that’s about sexual failure and horse blinding." On whether he masturbated while filming the Harry Potter movies: "Yeah, I was like every other teenager in that sense. ... But not when I was on set. I wasn’t going, When is Alan Rickman going to nail this scene so I can run back to my trailer?" On why he doesn't want to get into detail about his wilder drinking days: "I was forthright about it, but once you start talking about this, that’s all you talk about. I can say lots of well-meaning stuff—why it happened and how I stopped—for three hours, and the headline would be DRUNK ON THE SET OF HARRY POTTER." The full interview is worth a read.
