"Daniel Radcliffe insisted on auditioning for his role in Kill Your Darlings. Director John Krokidas reportedly did not expect Radcliffe to go through a formal audition process for the Beat generation drama, in which he plays Allen Ginsberg.  &amp;quot;I think he was nervous about whether I would want to audition or not, and so at my first meeting with him I said, &amp;#039;I want to read, I want to audition&amp;#039;,&amp;quot; Radcliffe explained to Out. &amp;quot;Because at this point in my career, I am aware that my name brings a certain kind of cachet. I want to know that a director wants me for me, rather than for the cachet.&amp;quot; Radcliffe went on to admit that he could understand people being sceptical when he was cast as Ginsberg. &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t look like him -\u00C2\u00A0although, neither does James Franco (who played Ginsberg in 2010&amp;#039;s Howl) - and I&amp;#039;m English and middle class, and not from New Jersey, but that&amp;#039;s what I think is so exciting about it, because people have no idea.  &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve always known I have the potential to be a good actor, and I think more than a good actor, but I&amp;#039;ve also at times lacked the tools and didn&amp;#039;t have any training.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; &amp;#039;Kill Your Darlings&amp;#039; Daniel Radcliffe, Dane DeHaan &amp;#039;want MTV Best Kiss&amp;#039; &amp;gt; Daniel Radcliffe: &amp;#039;Gay sex scenes were new experience&amp;#039; Watch Daniel Radcliffe discussing his most recent film The Woman in Black with Digital Spy below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
