Daniel Radcliffe ha rivelato di aver recentemente elogiato il cast di Stranger Things per aver gestito la fama in giovane età “so well”.
L’attore britannico, diventato un fenomeno globale a soli 11 anni dopo aver ottenuto il ruolo principale nella serie di film di Harry Potter, lo ha fatto “deep sympathy” per attori bambini che navigano verso la celebrità improvvisa.
Parlando in una recente intervista con Bustle, Radcliffe ha riflettuto sulla sua esperienza di crescere sotto gli occhi del pubblico.
“I was really lucky that I had a crazy youth, but it was also very structured, and there was tremendous continuity in the people around me the whole time,” ha detto. “It can be a blessing and it can also really f**k a person up.”
La star ha condiviso di aver recentemente incontrato diversi membri del cast di Stranger Things – che include artisti del calibro di Millie Bobby Brown, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink e Gaten Matarazzo – che avevano tutti meno di 16 anni quando si sono uniti alla serie di successo Netflix.
“I got to meet a couple of the Strangers Things kids recently, and I was able to just hug them and be like, ‘You’re all doing so well. You seem nice. Well done!'” Daniel, 36 anni, ha ricordato. “It was really lovely.”
Ha aggiunto, “Anytime I see somebody dealing with fame, I am both interested and deeply sympathetic and want to hug people.”
Radcliffe ha anche fatto riferimento al cantante 28enne Chappell Roan, che in precedenza aveva parlato del modo in cui il pubblico tratta le celebrità per strada.
“I remember when Chappell Roan was having that moment last year – there was something so beautiful about it,” ha detto alla pubblicazione. “And it made me really sad as well. I don’t know her, so I don’t want to speak about her life. But watching somebody go from nought to 100 in a year, her rise was so crazy.”
“And then her very sweet videos where she was like, ‘Hey, I might not want to take a photo…,'” ha continuato. “It felt like somebody realising that they had moved past a point of fame that they could never get back from.”
