In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Dane DeHaan, who will play Harry Osborn In The Amazing Spider-Man 2 said:
Ultimately my job is to portray a living, breathing human being and to act truthfully under imaginary circumstances. Sometimes you know that involves terrorizing an entire city [in 'Chronicle'], sometimes that involves getting intimate with Michael C. Hall [in the upcoming 'Kill Your Darlings'].
Dane DeHaan sounds confident in his ability to portray Harry Osborn.
However, as a fan of James Franco’s performance, it will be difficult to separate that portrayal of the character when I watch DeHaan’s.
When asked whether his performance would be different from previous ones DeHaan said “It’s certainly going be my version”.
DeHaan gave his take on the complicated character:
Everybody has their own set of circumstances and problems, and I think you know Harry Osborn certainly got a list of problems. Just because he goes home and sleeps in his penthouse at night and has a ton of money doesn’t mean he’s a happy person.
I respect DeHaan’s demeanor. He’s unafraid.
