OlderDaniel Radcliffe: Equus Rehearsals Under Way!
Harry Poter star Daniel Radcliffe enters Broadhurst Theatre in New York City early Sunday morning to rehearse for his new play Equus.
Radcliffe plays the disturbed Alan Strang, a seemingly normal 17-year-old who is fascinated by horses but inexplicably blinds six of them. The play, which has Radcliffe naked by the end of the play, tries to understand why.
“Offended mothers were calling up and saying I shouldn’t be doing this, that they weren’t going to go see it,” Radcliffe admitted recently. “OK, don’t see it. They’re treating it like it’s pornography, and it’s not. It’s only seven minutes at the end of the play when I’m naked, and I’m 19 now.”
This will be Radcliffe’s Broadway debut. Previews start this Friday and opens Sept. 25.

he is looking good. too bad i won’t be able to see the play
LOL! I am honored some of you think I am a man. Ok, ok, i have no right to judge, not having seen one H.P. Movie. Also, apparently I was mistaken regarding the gay character. he still looks perhaps, simply awkward to me. I don’t get that this was a GREAT decision on his part to go from a Hero to many children, to a confused horse-blinder.
I wish i could go see it!!!
i know he will be amazing!!!
im happy he isn’t going to let himself just be Harry Potter. He has done great in December Boys and in My Boy Jack. Hes trying.
dan you are really hott but for gods sake GET RID OF THAT BEARD IT DOES YOU NO GOOD
poter???
Ok sundayroats sorry but if a few people still don’t difference between one character and one actor…well,is their problem.HE IS ONE ACTOR,HARRY IS IMAGINATION.Marie2 the beard is for Equus,he is obligated for the part.
All but for the misspelling of my name, I agree to differ. Regarding the significance of children’s role models tackling extremely mature subject matter. I suppose a boy of 18 going to Iraq to kill Iraqis could be a comparable moral dilemma that is relevant to Dan’s choice. How quickly the kids grow up these days.
Plp Dan has this bread and look on for the freakin’ play! I am sure he’ll get it off soon. But I don’t see wut the problem is, he looks fine to me. Luv you Dan :p
hoooooooooooooooooot very very hot
like Dan but only 7 min?I agree with those mothers.
He looks hot !
Then you are so close mental like them,Vfan.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH DAN!!!
Come on people! Dan is wearing a beard because he has to have a beard for his role as Alan Strang in Equus! The director (or who ever it is) has told him not to shave. It was the same thing when he played the same part in London. When the play is over (in February) he will shave it off and go back to London to film Harry Potter, without the beard. As for him not looking happy: Well, you can’t be happy all the time. And especially not when there are people taking pictures of you all the time, whatever you do. Dan is a funny, happy, hard working and good looking young actor! I haven’t seen, heard or read an interview with his fellow co-stars (in whatever play/movie) that has said anything bad about him. They all say only good things about him. And look at his interviews on talkshows (like on Conan in the end of August). That will prove he is not depressed or sad or whatever you call him.
Oh quit the hate, argueing and complaints, people! It’s uncalled for, off topic, and not needed.
Anyway, Dan, you’re awesome and talented. Have a great show. :)
<3 xoxo
i was so lucky to see the play in london on the last night and as for the 7 mins of the play it was take as part of it. As you was drawn in to the whole play there was not one wolf whistle when he become naked as it was done with taste of the play.
well done dan for this brave move and as a mother of 5 i didnt find it distasteful at all and would of let my older kids to see it but the aspect of the play isnt for younger one and this has been said.
so plz do not pull him or the play down until you have seen it your self. And all so think he has a life outside harry potter and he is behaved i mean he could be partying or worse. So as a star in our kids eyes hes not doing to bad for them to follow.
Dan good luck and all the best to you
In d story behind d play Alan (Dan’s character) cant get aroused by d Jill character after a p**n play but Alan goes naked riding on a bare backed horse every nite at midnight. Another scene (in d play) Alan kneels naked (like praying) in front of a pic of a horse while whipping himself! & d famous scene is where he blinds like 6 horses! Its not just p**nographic but very twisted! Does d play really require Dan 2 so hairy?
u havea creepy *****…anditstiny….just saying sorry
i think he has a right to do as he please and i dont think its bad, i mean really hes only naked for seven mins.
