Daniel Radcliffe, the star of the Harry Potter series said Friday while in Tokyo for the premiere of the latest installment that it took a few takes to get over the nerves of getting the young wizard through his first on-screen kiss.
And even then, he didn’t really feel the magic.
“When we started it, we were both a bit nervous,” Radcliffe said at a news conference.
“But after the first few takes, it was sort of like any other scene, which is never really what people want to hear. It doesn’t really feel any different, because you are still acting.”
In “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” the latest in the megahit series based on J.K. Rowling’s books, Harry comes of age and has his first on-screen kiss, with longtime crush Cho Chang, played by Katie Leung.
It was a big moment for Harry — if not for Radcliffe.
