OK, well that kind of threw me for a loop. I never read  this quote 
before, and before I get all hot and bothered over it, I  imagine 
that this was maybe taken out of context? I hope? because  otherwise, 
IMO, David Thewlis doesn't know what he's talking about (I  dislike 
people who back stab their co stars as a general rule). Don't get  me 
wrong... Rupert does a really good job and, to me, is "Ron par  
excellence". And Emma is a fine young actress. But Daniel is better  
than good... he did an amazing job in POA and, again IMO, will have 
a  really great acting career if he decides to pursue one. His 
portrayal of  Harry is superb (and for those who want to see him cry, 
just watch him  closely when Lupin is talking to him about his mum 
and dad).     

Just my two cents  worth!

There's an article linked to Leaky and DanRadcliffe.com that  quotes Thewlis 
as going on and on about Rupert, rather than Dan, which is  surprising since 
Thewlis and Dan had so much screen time together, and Rupert  and Thewlis 
honestly didn't have that many scenes together.  It struck me  as rather odd.  I 
like Rupert a lot, but my goodness, he's no Dan.   Yikes!  FWIW, if another 
movie (not HP) came out with Dan in it, I'd go see  it, probably no matter what it 
was (well, I do have my limits. . .).  I  didn't bother to see "Thunderpants" 
despite liking Rupert.  It just seemed  too inane.  I can't imagine "serious 
film student" Dan taking such a part.
