'Harry Potter': Daniel Radcliffe gets lost in Central Park, tells Fallon (video)

'Harry Potter': Daniel Radcliffe gets lost in Central Park, tells Fallon (video) -- Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe talked to Jimmy Fallon Monday night on the Late Show with Jimmy Fallon. He was there to promote the latest Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 which premiered in New York the same evening. During the interview, he talked about getting lost in Central Park.

"I went in one entrance and came out what I thought was the same entrance," Daniel Radcliffe said, but instead he found himself lost. He wasn't sure whom to approach for directions, so he walked up to a parked ambulance that did not have any patients inside and asked for help.

"How do I get to West 69th from here?" he asked the driver.

The guy said, "Hey. You're the guy doing Equus."

Instead of mentioning the wizard role he's played for 10 years, Mr. Radcliffe seemed surprised that the driver knew him from his role at the time on Broadway.

"Everyone in the city is so aware of theater," he said. "It's amazing. It's just so cool."

Daniel Radcliffe also talked about coming to the city to star in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and his co-star John Laroquette. Jimmy Fallon gave him a DVD of the first season of Night Court and talked about the show and John Larroquette.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, starring Daniel Radcliffe, opens November 19, 2010.
