Daniel Radcliffe & Zoe Kazan to Lead Romantic Comedy 'The F Word'

Variety.com reported
After eight "Harry Potter" films and a handful of dark indies, Daniel Radcliffe is ready to tackle a new chapter of his career: the romantic comedy. Radcliffe and "Ruby Sparks" star Zoe Kazan are set to topline "The F Word," an indie pic from No Trace Camping whose title refers to the dreaded "friend" zone. "Goon" helmer Michael Dowse is set to direct from a script by Elan Mastai ("The Samaritan") that appeared on the 2008 Black List.

Comedic tale finds Radcliffe venturing to be the first male to have a successfully platonic relationship with a girl he likes (Kazan), only to find out she's already in a relationship.

David Gross and Jesse Shapira of No Trace Camping ("Goon") will produce along with Marc Stephenson and Hartley Gorenstein. Dowse and Jeff Arkuss will exec produce with NHO Entertainment's Mark Costa and Ford Oelman.

Pic is based on the play "Toothpaste and Cigars" by T.J. Dawe and Michael Rinaldi. Production starts Aug. 15 in Toronto, and additional casting is under way.

Since graduating from the "Harry Potter" franchise, Radcliffe has toplined CBS Films' sleeper hit "The Woman in Black," which grossed more than $127 million worldwide. Thesp, who recently signed on to star in Mandalay Pictures' adaptation of Joe Hill's horror novel "Horns," will next be seen playing Allen Ginsberg in John Krokidas' indie "Kill Your Darlings." He also earned strong reviews for his Broadway stint in "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying."

Kazan next stars as the title character opposite Paul Dano in Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris' sophomore feature "Ruby Sparks," a romantic comedy she wrote that Fox Searchlight will release on July 25. Thesp, who recently wrapped the Joss Whedon-scripted indie "In Your Eyes" and a feature adaptation of Neil LaBute's play "Some Girl(s)," is currently filming indie dramedy "The Pretty One" with Ron Livingston and Jake M. Johnson.

Radcliffe is repped by UTA, Artist Rights Group and attorney Fred Toczek. Kazan is repped by the Gersh Agency, Parseghian Planco and attorney Marcy Morris. Attorneys Jamie Feldman of LGNA&F and Arthur Evrensel of Heenan Blaikie are repping the production.

Daniel Radcliffe sign to star in supernatural thriller Horns

According to Variety, Daniel Radcliffe has just signed to star in director Alexandre Aja’s upcoming supernatural thriller Horns.

Based on the novel by Joe Hill, the story follows a young man (played by Radcliffe) accused of murdering his girlfriend. One morning, he awakens to find that he is growing horns with the power to force people to confess their sins, a gift the character uses to clear his name and solve his girlfriend’s murder.you can read summary of the novel below

summary

The novel consists of fifty chapters, with ten each divided into five larger sections, named as follows:

Hell

26-year-old Ignatius "Ig" Perrish wakes up one morning after a drunken night (in the woods containing an old foundry, near where his girlfriend's corpse was discovered) to find that he has sprouted bony, sensitive horns from his temples. Ig is the second son of a renowned musician and the younger brother of a rising late-night TV star, Terry Perrish. Within his hometown of Gideon, New Hampshire, Ig had position and security, but the rape and murder of his girlfriend, Merrin Williams, changed all that. Though he was neither charged nor tried (nor had committed the crime), Ig is largely considered guilty in public opinion.

As Ig leaves the apartment he shares with his friend with benefits, Glenna Nicholson, he notices that she is strangely honest with him about her desire to binge, her feelings about his unwanted presence, and the fact that she performed oral sex on a mutual high school friend of theirs, Lee Tourneau, the previous night. As Ig goes to a medical clinic to deal with the growth of his horns, he discovers that people have a sudden compulsion to blatantly express their ugliest and most animalistic urges, desires, and opinions to him, and that no one (neither those whom he already knows nor those he meets for the first time) seems surprised to see the horns. Moreover, when he makes skin-to-skin contact with individuals, he immediately learns their identities and some of their darkest secrets. They forget about their conversations with him as soon as they're over, as well as forgetting about the horns. He also realizes that he can make people give in to the ugly urges they have—in fact, the horns pulse in a pleasurable fashion when he does so—but he cannot make them do things they do not already want to do. He experiences these revelations with the doctor he talks to, two previously acquainted police officers, his church's priest and a nun, and others he encounters. Going home, he discovers that his parents and grandmother detest him and believe him to be Merrin's killer; he then meets his brother, Terry, who seems to be the only sympathetic member of the Perrish family. Terry, however, under the influence of the horns' power, confesses that he knows who killed Merrin: Lee Tourneau. Ig, in an episode of diabolic passion, releases the brake on his grandmother's wheelchair, and she goes rushing down a slope at a precarious speed.

[edit]Cherry

The high school past of Ig and Terry Perrish, Merrin Williams, and Lee Tourneau is explored, with the cherry as a common motif, referring to Merrin's red hair, the loss of virginity, and the characters' involvement with cherry bombs. Ig agrees to a bet: if he rides a shopping cart naked down a perilous trail in the woods by the Knowles River, he will receive a cherry bomb. Although he breaks his nose and briefly loses consciousness when he crashes into the river, Ig survives, believing that Lee Tourneau pulled him out of the water and resuscitated him. Ig and Lee immediately become friends, though Ig is pestered by the uncomfortable feeling of owing Lee a debt. In church, Ig becomes infatuated with a red-headed girl who has been flirtatiously reflecting light off her cross necklace into his eyes. When the necklace breaks and, unnoticed by her, falls down, Ig collects it and decides to impress her by fixing it. But when Lee expresses an interest in her and shows him how to fix the necklace, Ig lets him have it instead. Later, Ig trades his cherry bomb with Lee in order to get back the cross. With this, Ig greets Merrin and the two soon become de facto girlfriend and boyfriend. Lee detonates the cherry bomb and damages his eye, which becomes milky and has impaired vision, though his other eye is unimpaired. Lee is also revealed to be a juvenile delinquent, having stolen and sold various items, perhaps as a way of venting his seemingly groundless hatred of his mother. Ig feels not only that he may be responsible for Lee's accident, but that Merrin should not go to the hospital with him to visit Lee, because Ig thinks it would be tantamount to gloating in Lee's face (having won the girl over Lee).

[edit]The Fire Sermon

The night of Merrin's murder is partially revealed; specifically, the drunken argument between her and Ig in a restaurant (the last time they see each other). Merrin explains that Ig, who is about to go to England for six months for his job, should openly pursue other women while there, in order to gain some more romantic experience (Merrin being his only romance ever). Ig is infuriated, thinking (correctly) that she wishes to permanently end their relationship and suspecting she may have been cheating on him. He drives away from the restaurant, leaving her in the rain. Later, at the airport, he is about to board the plane when he is suddenly surrounded by police officers.

Meanwhile, in the present day, Ig goes to the congressman's office where Lee works and tells Lee he knows that Lee killed Merrin, but for some reason, he is unable to manipulate Lee with the horns. He also cannot attack Lee because of the congressman's security team, which includes Eric Hannity, another high school acquaintance. Ig drives back to the woods and the foundry and notices that snakes have started congregating around him. He listens to voice mails left by his friends and family on his cell phone and realizes that they think he is missing, having apparently not remembered just seeing him while under the mysterious influence of his horns. He drives back to his and Glenna's apartment where he is attacked by Eric, just narrowly escaping.

Returning to his parents' home, Ig touches a sleeping Terry's wrist and suddenly sees, from Terry's perspective, the events of the night of Merrin's murder: Terry is riding in Lee's car when they pick up Merrin, but is drunk and high and passes out while the actual murder takes place; later, Lee convinces Terry to keep quiet and five months later, a guilt-ridden Terry unsuccessfully attempts suicide. Although Terry begins to wake up, Ig discovers another power of his—he can perfectly mimic other voices— and convinces Terry that he is their mother, in the dark room, before departing.

Ig returns to the foundry where he finds an affinity with fire (and wine) and delivers a speech to the snakes. He asserts that the devil and women have always caused fear in God, with women being the more powerful because they, like God, have the power of creation. He argues that when Merrin decided to break away from him to pursue her own ends, God detested her and refused to come to her aid while she was being raped and murdered, all because He feared a "woman's power to choose who and how to love, to redefine love as she sees fit." God is a failed character too detested by his own creations to appreciate them. Ig concludes that only the devil loves humans for what they are, despite some of their negative characteristics.

The following morning at the foundry, Ig is abruptly asssaulted by Lee, and the contact with him enlightens Ig as to just how Lee murdered Merrin. Ig finds that Lee is wearing Merrin's cross and tears it off him, leaving Lee exposed to the horns' influence. Lee viciously beats Ig and tosses him in Ig's AMC Gremlin, douses the car with gasoline, and lights it on fire. Ig is able to release the parking brake, and the car, ablaze, rolls down into the river, in imitation of Ig's journey in the shopping cart years earlier. The fire, though reddening Ig's skin, has somehow completely restored him to physical health, healing the damage from his fight with Lee. There is another flashback with Merrin, regarding the time she and Ig visited a mysterious treehouse in the woods filled with religious paraphernalia. The two have sex and then pray when suddenly someone startles them by banging on the door in the floor of the treehouse. They quickly dress as the pounding continues, but when they open the door, no one is there. They are never able to relocate the tree house and begin to believe they both imagined it, dubbing it the "Treehouse of the Mind."

[edit]The Fixer

Lee Tourneau's adult life (as a close associate of a Christian conservative congressman) and his sexual pursuit of Merrin is explored. His mother acquired dementia and became weak and confused. Lee uses this as an opportunity to torture her, while pretending to be a loving, caring son whenever anyone visits. Ultimately she dies, and he uses her death as an excuse to become close to Merrin. He consistently finds more meaning than is intended from Merrin's gestures and choice of words, believing her to be sexually interested in him and, knowing that Ig will soon be leaving for Britain, eager to begin an affair with him. In reality she means no such thing. Lee also remembers an experience from his childhood in which he attempted to feed and befriend a stray cat, only to be swatted at, causing him to fall from a fence and hit his head; he is impaled in the head by a spike and receives serious brain damage; he undergoes a hallucination in which he perceives things as God would, and murders the cat. When he returns, his mother perceives nothing wrong, but it appears that from this point in time, his personality is changed and he has psychopathic thoughts. The section concludes with Lee's realization that Merrin never wanted a relationship with him, and his decision to rape and kill her.

[edit]The Gospel According to Mick and Keith

Ig is fully healed by the flames, but his clothes have burned off. Naked, he finds an old skirt and black overcoat to wear in the woods. He scoops up Merrin's cross and sees Dale Williams, Merrin's father, among a small crowd that has formed near the burnt car. Dale, against his will, gives Ig a ride to the Williams house, and the two discuss their conflicts and the death of Regan Williams, Merrin's older sister, from breast cancer, long before Ig and Merrin ever met. Ig has a strange impulse to go the Williams' attic, seemingly having visions of the Treehouse of the Mind and its similar trap door. In the attic, Ig finds a group of papers written in Morse code and a mammogram that reveals that Merrin too had breast cancer. Ig deciphers the Morse code to read a note written to him by Merrin, who describes her feelings about knowing she will die from breast cancer; she encourages him to find another romantic partner, though she loves him; she says she believes in the gospel of Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, quoting from The Rolling Stones song "You Can't Always Get What You Want." It turns out she had decided she didn't want chemo, but she knew if she stayed with Ig, he would find out she had cancer and for love of him, she'd have chemo anyway. So she decided to break up with him and die on her own, to save him pain.

Ig reunties with Glenna, whom he convinces to lead a more fulfilling life, and when she accidentally leaves her cell phone, Ig uses it to call Lee and, mimicking Glenna's voice, persuades him to drive to the foundry, where Ig hopes to ambush and kill him. Terry unexpectedly arrives at the foundry, confessing that he has quit his TV job, though Ig begs that he flee. Lee's car arrives, and both Lee and Eric exit the vehicle, armed with guns and aware of Ig's trap, having talked to the real Glenna. Ig and Eric struggle for a time before Lee shoots and kills Eric, hoping that it will look as though Ig and Eric killed each other, without Lee's involvement. Lee then gorily beats Ig with the empty shotgun until Terry reappears, blasting his trumpet into Lee's ear. With this distraction, Ig finally slams his horns into Lee's body. He then telekinetically convinces a snake to slide down Lee's throat, finishing him off. As Terry goes to use Glenna's phone to call emergency services, he is bitten by a venomous snake that Ig had placed there to attack Lee. Desperately, the gruesomely injured Ig crawls over to a gasoline canister, hoping that he can light himself on fire quick enough to restore his diabolic flesh and get Terry to a hospital. As he prepares to self-immolate, Ig begins to remember in hazy flashback his activities of the night he was drunk the morning before he awoke to discover the horns: in his inebriated state, he miraculously came across the elusive Treehouse of the Mind and while knocking on the trap door, discovered that he was the one the younger versions of himself and Merrin had heard knocking on the door all along. The night before he grew horns, he climbed into it and set in on fire. The treehouse had rules written on a piece of parchment: "TAKE WHAT YOU WANT WHILE YOU'RE HERE/GET WHAT YOU NEED WHEN YOU LEAVE." He needed to kill the person who murdered Merrin, he felt, and began to feel a tingling near his temples (implying that this desire would later cause him to become devil-like).

Back in the present time, Ig is restored to health by the flames and tells Terry that he needs to lie about what has happened here; Eric and Lee are both dead, and Terry needs to believe that Ig died too. Ig then goes to the cherry tree that once held the Treehouse of the Mind to find that a line of fire has reached it from the foundry. The treehouse itself has reappeared beyond the flames and Ig climbs up into the burning tree, enters the treehouse, and finds a wedding party within and Merrin awaiting him.

Sometime later, Terry is recuperating from his snakebite, believing (thanks to the influence of Ig's horns) that Eric and Lee killed Ig by burning him in his car, and that the two then tortured Terry with a venomous snake, before they killed one another. Although the detective doubts that this story is true, Terry is the only living witness. Terry goes to the woods to have some peace of mind and is joined by Glenna. When she leaves to begin packing for her move to New York City, Terry believes he can hear the faint sound of a trumpet, and decides it is time for him to leave too.

The inner front and back cover of the book has a repeating message written in morse code. It reads, "Pleased to meet you; hope you guess my name," which are lyrics from the Rolling Stones song, "Sympathy for the Devil." It refers to the novel's themes that the devil is more of an anti-hero than a villain.

Daniel Radcliffe interview taken by Advocate

Daniel Radcliffe give an interview to

Daniel talks about women in black and future project Advocate publish the interview with an article Daniel Radcliffe is praised by Advocate certain times in the article you can read the article and interview below.

The intense gaze of Daniel Radcliffe’s wide blue eyes is as haunting as the moody English landscape that provides the setting for the actor’s most recent film,The Woman in Black. The 22-year-old actor chuckles when this is mentioned. “I’ve been told several times I have a thousand-yard stare,” he offers. “When I’m not in a bright and cheerful mood I tend to look like I’ve just run across no-man’s-land.”

Based on the famed 1982 novel and stunningly directed by James Watkins, the gothic ghost story (now available on DVD and Blu-ray) marks both Radcliffe’s first film since leaving Hogwarts and an unexpected return to the supernatural genre of the Harry Potter films, which made him a marquee name. Having already proven his versatility in hit stage revivals of the psychological drama Equus and the classic musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, Radcliffe will soon portray his first gay character.

The 22-year-old actor will star in Kill Your Darlings, a true-crime drama from out director John Krokidas, in which he’ll depict legendary Beat poet Allen Ginsberg years before Howl made him a literary icon. Radcliffe belongs to a committed generation of young entertainers intent on using their fame as a platform to speak out for equality. For his efforts on behalf of the Trevor Project, which works to prevent LGBT teen suicides, Radcliffe received the organization’s Hero Award. “Young people deserve to live in a world that accepts them for who they are, regardless of a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity,” Radcliffe said upon learning of the honor. Radcliffe tells The Advocate about his return to the supernatural with The Woman in Black, what drew him to play Ginsberg, and why he’s tirelessly committed to speaking out for equality.

Daniel Radcliffe interview 

The Advocate: The Woman in Blackis the first film you made since the Potter franchise ended. Did you have any hesitation about making another movie within the horror-fantasy genre? 
Daniel Radcliffe: I said to myself, if I rule out any script that had remotely any fantasy element, I’d be cutting myself off from a huge amount of amazing work. If you’re talking about films made years ago, it would exclude me from films like The Shining or A Matter of Life and Death or who knows what else. There are so many films that could be deemed as having heightened paranormal elements to them, which could just be magical realism or a ghost story, which isn’t really the same feeling as Potter. I decided not to let that impinge on my decision-making.

What specifically appealed to you about the film?
For me it was a chance to do something that’s genuinely different and that I thought people wouldn’t be expecting and that I wasn’t expecting. If you’d said to me that the first film I’d do after finishing the last Potter would be a horror film, I wouldn’t have believed you. It’s never been something I’ve particularly gravitated towards. But one of the only horror films that made an impression on me while I was growing up was The Others. I saw it when I was about 13 and absolutely loved it.

The Woman in Black certainly shares qualities with that film.
When I read the script I thought of that film immediately and James Watkins felt the same. He also had a Spanish film called The Orphanage in his mind when he was conceiving this film. Having the chance to make one of those unusual, suspenseful, atmospheric, scary ... There’s a difference between a nasty film and a scary film. Of course films likeHostel and Saw are going to be horrifying because they’re unpleasant and there’s gruesome imagery involved. You’d be inhuman not to have some reaction to that. But with a film like this, it taps into things we have evolved to fear: darkness, noises we can’t identify the source of, those things that really scare us in real life. It all adds up to make a really effective, very scary film, I think. It also touches on family, loss, grief, and things you might not normally associate with a horror film.

You mentioned the 1946 fantasy A Matter of Life and Death. I’m impressed that you’re so film-literate.
That’s my favorite film. There are gaps in my film knowledge. I’ve never seen Star Wars and stuff like that. But A Matter of Life and Death I think is one of the greatest showings of what imagination in cinema can do, with no visual effects, really. It was a brilliant story and brilliantly acted. David Niven is the most impossibly charming man in the world in that film and always. It’s just a brilliant film.

You portray Allen Ginsberg in your next film, Kill Your Darlings.
I feel I am incredibly lucky to be playing him. Despite the damage from his upbringing and his mother and what he went through, he really emerged into the most fully formed open, compassionate human being out of all of the Beats. He’s certainly the one you’d be most comfortable spending time around, I think. When you watch footage of him and William Burroughs together and see how much they care about each other and how close they were and the love between all those guys and the incredible sadness that brought them all together that they were all carrying in some degree. It’s great.

This is director John Krokidas’s first feature film. What convinced you to take this leap of faith with a novice filmmaker?
You obviously haven’t met John. [Laughs] John is one of the most passionate people you could ever meet. For me this is an exceptional script. The scenes were almost completely devoid of exposition, yet the story was always being moved along and any information being given out in those scenes is given as information about the characters and not just handed out for the audience to understand. It’s a brilliantly written script. You meet John and he has such unwavering belief in this project and he’s enthusiastic and fun and I thought, Yes, I want to dive in with you and make this happen. I think that’s why so many people were drawn to this film. It’s myself, Lizzy Olson, Ben Foster, Jack Huston, Michael C. Hall, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Kyra Sedgwick ... an amazing group of people. That’s due to the script and John’s passion for the project.

Last year you received the Trevor Project’s Hero Award. The founder of Trevor Project said that you actually reached out to them to become involved with the organization. Why was this important to you?
I think it started when I was doing an interview a few years ago and I was being asked about gay rights and I realized I was speaking much more passionately about gay rights than anything else I’d been asked about. It’s because while growing up a lot of my mum and dad’s best friends were gay, so there were always a lot of gay men in my life. When I went to school, suddenly there was something weird about that for a lot of kids. That’s still very odd to me. I’m still like, What’s new about it? It’s been going on for ages. I couldn’t understand why people are freaked out about it. I find it incredibly frustrating that people are still being brought up in ways that encourage homophobia and allow it to affect the lives of millions of people across the country and the world. Finding out about Trevor Project through friends at that time just seemed perfect. I wanted to be of service and help, and I’m just incredibly proud that I’m able to. I do get people coming up to me and saying – I’d say at least five or six times each week someone will come up to me and say, "Thank you for what you do for the Trevor Project." It’s amazing that you’re able to effect a positive change just by being you and talking about things that you feel strongly about. I’m just very proud to be a part of it.

Marriage equality is a hot button issue in the States. Earlier this year British prime minister David Cameron stated his support. Is it safe to presume you support it as well? 
Yes, absolutely. Obviously. [Laughs] It shouldn’t even be a thing. It shouldn’t even be a discussion. That doesn’t sound right. Everything should be discussed. Anyone should be able to get married. One of the most amazing things I’ve seen was during the Republican thing earlier when Michele Bachmann was still around and some young girl asked her why gay men can’t get married. Michele Bachmann said they can but not to each other. I thought, That’s the problem. They don’t even understand the question. It’s so frustrating to me and bizarre. Hopefully progress will come.

Collider:  When The Woman in Blackopened and it did so exceptionally well at the box office, were you breathing a sigh of relief thinking “Thank god, I’m going to be able to do other movies besides Harry Potter, and have people come out”?

Daniel Radcliffe: Absolutely. Yeah, I’ve never known, really, what it’s like to have a film come out where you feel a lot of pressure around the release. And obviously in Potter it was always a question of how big the film was gonna be. So to have a film where you really don’t know how it’s going to do opening weekend and where you’re being released with a load of other films and you haven’t got that massively recognizable brand that obviously Potterhad. So you’re gonna have to scrap from recognition among those other films. I think it’s a testament to the quality of the movie that people not only went and saw it the first weekend but, particularly in the UK, went back for weeks and weeks to see it. And it was great, and for me personally, to see that people will still come out to support a film that I’m in that is notHarry Potter in that they did was just amazing. And I feel I worked hard on the film, both in the actual filming and then in the promotion of it, so it was lovely to see all that work rewarded. It was very gratifying, actually.

Are you the type of person that likes going to the theater opening weekends, standing in the back and watching the crowd? Especially something like this that will have the crowd reacting strongly to it?

Radcliffe: By the time this film had come out I’d seen it three times, and two of those times had been in the back of fairly full screening rooms, so I didn’t feel I needed to go opening weekend. But this is a particularly good film to watch for audience reactions. I saw it one time we sat near the front of the screening and one time I sat near the back, and it’s interesting because when you sit near the front you don’t have a sense of how the film is playing, really. But when you sit at the back and you can actually see the reactions of the people and you can see everyone jumping and kind of jostling each other as they scream. It’s a very, very satisfying film to watch like that, because my favorite thing to do is to pick a person, normally a group of teenage girls, and just watch them until they freak out and scream and throw popcorn everywhere.

Hindsight is 20/20; when you look back on the film now, what do you think really worked, and is there something about the film that you wish you could have done another take on or explored more?

Radcliffe: The part of the film that I think is the best and is the most compelling section is the 15-20 minutes in the middle where there’s no dialogue and it’s just me being chased around the house. In terms of things I think we could have done differently, I mean I’m very happy with the film and there will always be things in my own performance that I feel I could have done better. That’s part of the process and that’s where I was as an actor at the time, it was a while ago we did it now— it was a year and half, which is a long time in terms of how much you develop in that time. But yeah, there are certainly things that now I watch the film and I look back, and I go “Oh I could definitely have done that better,” or this or that. But generally speaking I’m happy, and particularly with the middle section of the film where— that’s the section where . . . If I’m not doing my job in that section then it shouldn’t really work, because I’m all there is there. So I was pleased with that. That was the section of the film that I look at with a lot of pride.

Some actors prefer the Clint Eastwood method of 2 takes and some actors love the David Fincher method of 50 takes; where do you fall in that spectrum and what’s the most you’ve every done?

Radcliffe: The most I’ve ever done? The most takes I’ve ever done . . . it was not a shot I was in. I’ve been on set for getting to 36 takes. That was on the second [Harry Potter] film, I think. Where do I fall in? It’s interesting, it’s amazing to me that Fincher has time to do 50 takes, I’ve just done a film where we’ve shot it in 26 days, and there’s some things where you get one take, but it’s not because of Clint Eastwood’s “so you get 1 take” method, that’s [just] all you have time for. So I dunno. To be honest, as long as I feel the director’s got what he wants, I don’t care if you do 1 take or 100. My energy level is such that I can keep going for as long as you need me to. I’m there until the director feels he’s got it, and when he does then I want to move on, but until I feel that he’s happy, then I really don’t feel comfortable moving on to another shot. I think also there’s this thing sometimes where if it’s a big scene it would be great to do a lot of takes, and just feel that you give every option, every way of playing it that you can. But if it’s a small scene and you feel you’re getting hung up on something and you get to take 10 on a tiny scene, then as an actor you start thinking, “Well Jesus, what do I have to do here, what is the right version of this?” But it’s not something you get too wrapped up on, I tend to just go by what the director wants.

I have a feeling that down the road WB will re-release the entire Harry Potter series in 3D.  What’s your feeling on that possibility?

Radcliffe: I have no idea . . . Yeah, they probably will, won’t they, I suppose? Maybe the 3D fad will have passed by the time we get around to it, who knows? I don’t know, I’m sure there is going to be many box sets and 3D releases of everything. In terms of how it affects my life, it doesn’t really other then there’s different things for me to sign. It will be a new box set to slap a signature on. The thing I always say about 3D is it’s not for me, I don’t love it. If you like 3D, and you like Harry Potter, then I have no doubt that you’ll love Harry Potter in 3D. But if you don’t like 3D, then it probably won’t add much for you. The one thing that terrifies me is that the idea that in 20 years or so they’ll probably remake the films. Just with the world’s generally shrinking attention span, it will probably only be 10 years before people are ready to remake them again. So you know, I could come back and play Lupin or whoever I want in 20 years maybe.

I’m really excited for Kill Your Darlings, which you mentioned you just wrapped on.  You play a very famous person; can you talk a little about the research that went in, what excited you about that project, and what people can be looking forward to?

Radcliffe: I think people can be looking forward to one of the best ensemble casts and filming one of the best scripts that I think, as a cast, we were all talking about on set how it’d been a long time since we read anything as good as this. It’s a fantastic script. To give you a rundown of the cast; it is Ben Foster, Michael C. Hall, Dane DeHaan, Jack Huston, Kyra Sedgwick, Jennifer Jason Leigh, David Cross, Elizabeth Olsen . . . It’s a really great cast. In terms of the research for playing Allen, it was really about working on my American accent, and just making sure that it was right and felt like my voice and had a kind of subtle New Jersey element to it, but he really didn’t have much of an accent, [Allen] Ginsberg, so it wasn’t too focused on that. And it was about watching a lot of YouTube clips really, because even though there’s no footage of Allen at the age of 19, it’s interesting to watch people talk about him and the person he was and see what he then turned into. Really the thing that I always see when I watch Allen is he really is the most—although he can seem slightly introverted at moments—he’s actually the most expressive, enthusiastic, kind of excitable member of that group. And was really a very—at the time they met him—sweet, completely conformist just desperate to be liberated. Absolutely longing for the excitement that he dreamed of in New York to be in his life. And it’s about him meeting both all the right and all the wrong people at the same moment.

I’m sure you have your pick of a lot of different projects: What’s your criteria moving forward in terms of your film roles and have you all ready lined up something that you’re going to be starting in the neat future.

Radcliffe: I think my criteria is just . . . I read some thrillers recently, some thriller scripts, and it all kind of felt the same, there was an interesting part in some of them, but none of it felt like it was new. So I think the first thing that I look at when I read a new script is has this story been told before? Originality is really . . . it goes a long way to beat that in my book.

So have you figured out what you’re going to do next?

Radcliffe: I don’t have any immediate plans. There are lots of offers around, but I want to do something that I’m really— I’ve never been on a set of something that I’m not very passionate about, and I can’t imagine being on a set without being very passionate about something, so I’ve got to wait until I find something that I know really want to do.

The comic book genre is more popular then ever, is that a genre that excites you? And could you ever see yourself wanting to play another one of these iconic, title roles?

Radcliffe: Yeah, absolutely. I dunno who’s left, I mean a lot of comic books have . . . they’ve all been done. I don’t think anyone’s done The Flash yet, and that’s one I’d probably have a go at. Other then that, I’m not sure which comic book heroes are left.

Daniel new project could be Pinocchio movie

After the confirmation that Daniel is going to play young doctor of John Ham The news is spreading on the net that Daniel may work in  Daniel Radcliffe stop-motion “Pinocchio” movie read the article below

“Harry Potter” actor Daniel Radcliffe is just one of the names being branded about as a possibility for Guillermo del Toro’s stop-motion “Pinocchio” movie.

The “Hellboy” director says Radcliffe himself has asked to be a part of the project, and he’s also keen to get Tom Waits and Christopher Walken, involved. Don’t get too excited though, nobody has signed for the project yet.

The filmmaker has a while before he has to attach names to the project, “Pinocchio” won’t be ready until 2014.

del Toro, speaking to the press at Cannes, will direct the project with Mark Gustafson.

“When we originally talked about this project I was going to direct but then I said I would executive produce it. But everything with the production discussions became more and more specific and I began to realize I was getting more and more involved,” THR quotes the filmmaker as saying.

The film, backed by Jim Henson’s company, will be a “dark, atmospheric tale” in, of course, 3D.
