The British star also opened up about whether becoming a father had influenced the roles he chooses to play as an actor.
“Oh it hasn’t done anything yet, it hasn’t changed anything,” he laughed.
But while fatherhood hasn’t affected the types of role he’s going for, Radcliffe went on to explain that it had affected the amount of work he’s choosing to take on.
“I’m sure I’m going to, probably for at least a few years become a little more selective just about how much I work, just because I really enjoy spending time with him and I’d like to continue doing that," he toldE! News. “But obviously, I love my job and I’m not going to stop doing that, but yes, I don’t think it’s changed any of that.”

“It’s great. It’s crazy and intense, but he’s wonderful and Erin is amazing — it’s a real privilege also to have this time with him,” Radcliffe told the outlet. “I was always going to take some time off, which not everyone is able to do, and so I’m able to kind of just be here with him a lot, which is lovely.”
