Hollywood actor Daniel Radcliffe, best known for his portrayal of Harry Potter in the extremely successful franchise, was emotional as he accepted his first Tony Award for Featured Actor in a Musical for his standout performance in the Broadway musical, Merrily We Roll Along.

Radcliffe held back tears as he said, “I’m going to talk fast and try not to cry. Thank you so much to our cast, everybody on that stage, it is an honor to be on that stage with you every single night. I will miss it so much. Speaking of missing things — Jonathan [Groff], Lindsay [Mendez], I will miss you so much. I don’t really have to act in this show; I just have to look at you and feel everything I want to feel. I will never have it this good again.”

Later, Radcliffe spoke about his past as a Harry Potter star in the press room, stating, “When I finished [‘Harry Potter’] I had no idea what my career was going to be. I’d already started doing some stage stuff, but I didn’t know what the future held at all.”

“To have had the last year playing Weird Al and also ‘Merrily We Roll Along,’ it’s been awesome. Playing one character for a very long time builds up anxiety, like, do as many things as you possibly can. So yeah, I’m doing that right now,” Radcliffe concluded.

The Maria Friedman-helmed revival of Stephen Sondheim and George Furth’s musical Merrily We Roll Along won big at the Tony Awards. Apart from Daniel, the play also won the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical, while Jonathan Groff won Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical category.
