Actor Daniel Radcliffe admitted that he worried that he would fail as an actor after finishing Harry Potter.

The British actor said that "he couldn't afford to take a break" because he knew the British film industry was watching his next moves.

Daniel said: "The film world will be watching to see what we do next and we can't afford to be seen to be inactive - that fear of failure is something that will panic me a lot."

Daniel went on: "I really want to prove all the people wrong who assumed, when I got the part, that we wouldn't carry on beyond Potter.

"I've already done stuff towards that; Equus, My Boy Jack, December Boys, Woman In Black - these are first steps in what is going to be a very long process."

The star may have some thrilling roles lined up, but he still doesn't consider himself part of the cool acting crowd.

The star said: "People think film stars are all very cool and I'm not, I am a geek. I'm obsessed with cricket, I'm not particularly what people want when they meet a movie star."
