Daniel Radcliffe has revealed that he got bored of hearing that he is "an unconventional romantic lead," when the rom com 'What If' was coming out.

The 25-year-old actor, who was frustrated that he was often typecast by the media having starred in 'Harry Potter' as a child, said that he eventually kind of picked someone up on it and asked what exactly about him was unconventional, the Independent reported.

Radcliffe added that then the interviewer said that it's probably the fact that people associated him with playing Harry, the young boy wizard.

He continued that his immediate response to that was that the male population had no problem sexualizing Emma Watson immediately.
