With the Tony Awards in full swing, Daniel Radcliffe spoke to E! News on the red carpet about how his son inspired his performance in Every Brilliant Thing.
The solo show opened at the Hudson Theatre on March 12, starring Radcliffe as an unnamed narrator. The 70-minute show follows the narrator as he chronicles his journey with suicidal depression, beginning with his mother’s suicide attempt. Radcliffe closed out his run on May 24, with Mariska Hargitay taking over on May 26.
“Honestly, I found doing a show that is about saying something … my son’s a real inspiration in wanting to say that,” Radcliffe said. “And when I was thinking about certain things in the show, I would think about him a lot. So he was actually quite energizing.”
Although his son wasn’t able to attend any of the showings, E! News asked what he hopes his son will think about them in the future.
“If he likes any of them, that will feel like a victory as a parent,” Radicliffe said. “I don’t know, I feel like nothing your parents do is cool. So he’ll probably just watch me [and] be like ‘What are you doing?’ And God forbid he ever watches the film where me and his mom, who’s here tonight, met on, because it’s just going to be an awkward watch for a variety of reasons for him.”
Radcliffe met his partner, Erin Darke, on the set of the 2013 indie film Kill Your Darlings. Us Weekly reports that the two made a strong connection while filming a love scene, which led to a real-life romance. In April 2023, they welcomed their baby boy together.
“Honestly, if I could stop [my son] from ever knowing I was an actor or famous, I would do that,” Radcliffe said with a smile. “I’m in this beautiful phase right now where I’m just his dad to him and nothing else. And I’m just going to hang on to that for as long as possible.”
