Daniel Radcliffe is putting on his dancing shoes. His ballet shoes, to be specific.
The 19-year-old actor is taking the lessons in hopes of making himself more employable, always a good plan in this job market.
He told Esquire magazine: “I’m learning the basics of ballet. The thing is, in a few years I’ll be 21, 22, and that’s when all the guys who’ve been at drama school will come out.
“They’ve been learning dance or singing and all that stuff and I’m going to need to compete with them because I won’t have ‘Harry Potter’ as my safety net any more. I need to make myself as viable a choice for any part as I possibly can.”
In other dance news, Angelina Jolie is giving her eldest two daughters an early start in show business – she’s enrolled Shiloh, 3, and Zahara, 4, in dance classes.
The trio were snapped entering the Creative Station in Studio City, Los Angeles on Monday. Jolie signed each of them up for 10 of the Princess Series Ballet/Tap classes, reports Ok! magazine.
