Los Angeles - Daniel Radcliffe thinks he would be "mad" to get engaged.

The Harry Potter star - who has been dating production assistant Rosie Coker for 18 months - admitted while he is not scared of commitment, it is "much, much too soon" for the couple to think about tying the knot.

When asked whether he would be popping the question anytime soon, he told the Daily Star newspaper: "God, Christ no, I won't be getting engaged this year.

"I'm not terrified of commitment, but it is much, much too soon. I think we'd be mad to go for it now. It'll be a while off yet."

Terrible date

The 22-year-old actor has previously admitted he was terrible at dating, and had no idea what to do on his first few dates with Rosie.

Daniel explained: "I hated dating, because I'm crap at it! With Rosie, I didn't know what was appropriate, like on which date you're supposed to try and kiss her.

"I went to kiss Rosie and at the last minute lost my nerve and ended up kissing her neck, which is a very intimate place to kiss somebody on the second date. Fortunately, she just found it really funny."
