Being a little obsessed with Daniel Radcliffe, the Gravity actress was quite taken aback when she met him on the sets of the 2022 film. Recalling her interactions, Bullock stated that Radcliffe was nothing like she expected!
Sandra Bullock Was Shocked After Meeting Daniel Radcliffe
Having starred in 8 Harry Potter movies through most of his childhood, Daniel Radcliffe became a household name for people to remember. Sandra Bullock, the actress known for Gravity, Speed, and, Ocean’s 8 is also a big fan of Radcliffe.
The actress finally got a chance to work with Radcliffe on the sets of the 2022 movie The Lost City. Recalling that she was a little bit obsessed with The Jungle actor, Sandra Bullock received quite a shock when she met the actor for the first time. In an interview, the actress revealed that having starred in a $7.7 billion franchise, she thought Daniel Radcliffe would be one of those egoistic people who’d be a narcissist. Much to the Speed actress’ surprise, Radcliffe was completely the opposite and a down-to-earth actor.
“And to me, I don’t know, I just came to really admire and like him so much, because he was not at all what I expected him to be. I thought he’d be some narcissistic, entitled child actor who’s grown into an adult who would just come with all kinds of drama and he was nothing even close to that.”
But not all of the actor’s side was good since the Minions actress revealed that Radcliffe was indeed very proud of who he was and that he carried that Harry Potter look wherever he went.
Daniel Radcliffe Is Very Proud of Who He Is
Although the actor does not have an ego and the added narcissism, Daniel Radcliffe is indeed proud of who he is. Sandra Bullock stated that she could see the Harry Potter look that he carried with him and what was difficult was how to create something unexpected from Daniel Radcliffe that would be totally opposite his Harry Potter behavior.
“… I think I can see that he carries that [‘Harry Potter’] with him with a lot of respect, but in a guilty pleasure way, I want to see him turn things on its ear. Like, he’s a grown man who has such charm and charisma and when he came aboard it was so fun to think about how he was going to look. We knew the acting would be a no-brainer, but how do you present Daniel Radcliffe so that the minute you see him you go, ‘What?'”
With a rating of 6.1/10 on IMDB and 79% on Rotten Tomatoes, The Lost City earned some mixed reviews but mostly positive ratings. Starring Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum, The Lost City is available to stream on Prime Video in the U.S.
