Daniel Radcliffe has opened up about his love for animated TV shows like The Simpsons. In an interview with CBR, he talked about his progression into voicing adult animation, something he was naturally drawn to since he spent years watching cartoons. He said he enjoyed light-hearted television and steered away from heavy drama.
“I watch cartoons, and I watch reality TV,” he shared. “I’ve never seen Breaking Bad. I’ve never watched The Sopranos, or The Wire. All the sort-of, heavy hour-long stuff. Just, I can’t.” Radcliffe recalled watching the game show Jeopardy! in which a contestant “credited a ton of his trivia knowledge to The Simpsons” and said, “That’s absolutely true of me as well.” Radcliffe even had several guest appearances in the popular animated series.
He also talked about his appreciation of adult animated TV, saying: “It makes sense that our generation of people that have grown up on The Simpsons would want to continue watching more adult-themed cartoons when they got older.” In the same interview, he spoke about his guest appearance in the animated series BoJack Horseman, saying: “I think a lot of BoJack Horseman would be just too f*****g bleak and sad if it wasn’t a talking horse.”
Radcliffe, who rose to fame playing the lead role in the Harry Potter series, recently revealed that he has no plans to make a cameo in the upcoming Harry Potter television series
