The good-natured Brit looked relaxed as he discussed working on J.K Rowling's latest movie - which is a prequel to Harry Potter.
The Theory Of Everything star revealed one of the rehearsal tactics he employed to make sure he was delivering a convincing performance for the Harry Potter enthusiasts, earlier this week.
Speaking to TimeOut on Wednesday, the star revealed that he spent a lot of time talking to himself whilst travelling on the London underground, pretending to speak to the magical characters that appear in the film.

The actor elaborated on the fact that the creatures in the story were added during post-production.
'Sometimes we’d have almost “War Horse”-style puppets for the rehearsal. But it varied, and sometimes it just involved having little Pickett the Bowtruckle, who is a stick insect, and he would be on my hand.
'I’d be on the tube in London, imagining talking to this thing, and suddenly realise I’m being stared at.’

Stunning: The daughter of Oscar nominee Sam Waterston and former model Lynn Louisa Woodruff looked chic in a couture white number
On taking on the role in the mega-franchise, the star of The Theory Of Everything earlier revealed that being offered the role without having to audition excelled the pressure he felt playing the part.
'With the thrill comes the paranoia that you’re going to get fired after day one,' he explained. 'I was convinced I would lose the job. This is how neurotic actors work! But certainly fear is always there. It’s what makes you work harder.'
The new dad was reunited with co-star Katherine Waterston, 36, who plays Porpentina Goldstein in the film.
Chat: They were joined by other members of the cast including Ezra Miller, Alison Sudol and Dan Fogler

The Fantastic Beasts actor told People: 'It's hilarious, she'll just be sitting there going, "Behhhhh!" Like, what is that noise from this tiny little thing?'
Discussing his favourite part about being a dad, he added: 'It's in the morning if Iris has managed to sleep through the night and then you hear a gentle squeak and you go in [her room] and turn on the light.
'She has a massive grin that's like, "It's a whole new day". That's probably the greatest thing.'
