Last week 17-year-old Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe was in Roppongi Hills in Tokyo for the premiere of "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" and during a news conference he chatted — with producer David Heyman — about the new movie, which opens July 20 in Japan.

What are the themes of this film?

Radcliffe: The letters that are sent to us, a lot of them talk about the themes of friendship and loyalty and bravery, and I think this film retains all of those themes, but it is also about strength. At the beginning of the film, Harry knows Voldemort has returned and yet has to cope with everyone accusing him of having lied about this. For me, it's about Harry just knowing that what he has seen is the truth and sticking to it and doing everything he can, never giving up in getting the truth to the rest of the world. And so for me that's one of the messages in the film. But also I think another one would be about choices. Gary Oldman has a line as Sirius Black where he says: "We all have light and dark inside us, what matters is the part that we act upon on, that's what makes us who we really are." If there was one line people could take away from this film, I would say it should be this one.
