Daniel Radcliffe says children are “much cooler” to talk to than adults.

Teenage Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe says he’s looking forward to having children because they’re “much cooler” to talk to than adults.

The schoolboy wizard, who will turn 20 this month, gushed about his excitement to become a dad. He returns to Hogwarts in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Radcliffe said: “I’m excited about the idea of having kids, I’m not going to do it for a while though. A lot of people on the Potter set have had kids recently and to see the difference it’s made in their life. They’re so much more tired than they were before but they’re a lot happier.

“The joy, they’ve been changed in an amazing way. I do love kids, I think they’re so much cooler than adults to talk to and they’re just honest.

“They don’t care what they say and they’re hilariously funny.”

The actor told how making the latest Harry Potter movie tested him emotionally as well as professionally. “I always have great fun making these films,” he said.

“There were some very hard scenes to film – Dumbledore’s death scene was one.

“That was very, very hard scene to film because I’ve never lost anybody close to me.”

Radcliffe is now shooting parts one and two of the final Harry Potter instalment – Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
