Daniel Radcliffe has revealed that he used the music of Radiohead to get into the right mindset for shooting Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

The actor stated that he found bands such as Radiohead and Hope of the States helpful for preparing to film scenes in which his character Harry confronts the evil Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes), Access Hollywood reports.

"A lot of Radiohead," Radcliffe responded when asked what music he uses to get into character. "And a lot of Hope of the States. There are certain songsâ€¦ that I've always gone back to over the yearsâ€¦ And I keep going back to them to find Harry."

The 21-year-old went on to praise the final installment in the Harry Potter series.

"I cannot emphasize enough how far ahead this film is from any of the others," Radcliffe said. "It's amazing. I am so proud of this film and the way we have gone out in this film. I think people are gonna go crazy for it."

Radcliffe recently revealed that he does not think of himself as a conventional sex symbol, describing himself as "short and nerdy".

Earlier this week, the actor confessed that he gave up drinking alcohol after realizing that he had become too "reliant" on it to "enjoy stuff".
