Daniel Radcliffe was "so intimidated" by Alan Rickman on the "Harry Potter" sets and thought "he hates me." Years later, Rickman would cut a vacation short to see Radcliffe on Broadway.

Alan Rickman was always very supportive of Daniel Radcliffe. I showed Dan an interview I did with the great Alan Rickman 10 years ago. @92ndStreetY

“I was so intimidated by Alan Rickman. How can you not be by that voice?” Daniel Radcliffe said. “Even hearing that voice you forget quite how low it was until it echoes through you. I was so intimidated by him for the first three movies. I was terrified by him and was like, ‘This guy hates me.’ Somewhere along the lines he saw that I really wanted to do this and work at it.”

“He cut short a vacation in Canada to come and see me in ‘Equus.’ He saw every piece of stage work I did when he was alive,” Radcliffe added. “He would take me out afterwards and we would talk about it. He was one of the first people to say like, ‘You should look at voice coaching and investigate all this stuff.’”
