AceShowbiz - A famous actor himself, Daniel Radcliffe has nothing but praise for fellow British heartthrob Robert Pattinson, claiming the "Twilight" leading actor as "a sex symbol" and "a genuine sexy guy." The Harry Potter depicter then jokingly told US Weekly at the New York City premiere of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" on Thursday, July 9, "He's got the height. If girls like short and nerdy, then I'm a sex symbol!"
Though so, Daniel admitted he rarely gets in touch with Robert. "I've said probably three words to him in the last three years and that was before Twilight all kicked off," he said. "But I wish him well. Hopefully, I'll see him at some point. He's bound to turn up at one of these [premieres] at some point."
Prior to his breakthrough role as Edward Cullen in hit vampire flick "Twilight," Robert Pattinson is known for portraying the supporting character of Cedric Diggory in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix". He has previously scored praise from "Harry Potter" co-star Emma Watson, who claimed she knew beforehand that he will become a famous star.
"Obviously, I know Rob. I'm just gob-smacked by the level of excitement and hype around 'Twilight.' I'm very happy for Rob that it's been so successful," Emma told MTV. "He is a very, very handsome man, so I'm not too surprised."
