London, July 10 

Actor Daniel Radcliffe admits acting doesn't come as naturally to him as it comes to other young actors.

The 21-year-old star was cast in the "Harry Potter" franchise when he was just 11 years old and he admits one of the main reasons why he and co-stars Rupert Grint and Emma Watson were cast was because of their appearances, rather than their talent, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I think there's a perception that we got the parts because we looked right. I think that's probably quite fair," he said.

"Also, acting is something that I don't necessarily think comes naturally to me. Certainly not as natural as it does to, say, Haley Joel Osment or Dakota Fanning, who were just giving full-blown adult performances at the age of 10," he said.
