No, of course I didn't. 'But would you have taken it anyway?' Of course. "I happened to have found this industry where people get paid stupid amounts of money. That's the reality. I feel almost guilty for having done so well out of Potter."  Daniel made the comments while speaking about his involvement in The Trevor Project, a charity which seeks to prevent young gay people from committing suicide, to Parade magazine.
