I actually think now that rupert is a whole lot cuter than dan and you all have very bad taste in men if you think a guy that hairy is so amazingly gorgeous Id rather see rupert naked next to that horse than dan. sorry


Posted by Mudblood428 Jan 30th 2007

How come none of the 17 year-old boys I knew in high school looked like that shirtless? *looks disdainfully at yearbook*


Posted by Anniina Jan 30th 2007

Wow! Not bad, not bad at all..

Posted by kash about an hour ago so CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHY ALAN WOULD BLIND THE HORSES? SOMEONE HERE SAID THEY KNEW ABOUT THE STORY.. I TRIED TO LOOK IT UP ON GOOGLE.. BUT DIDNT FIND OUT THE REASON WHY? WHAT MADE HIM DO SOMETHING LKE THAT? -------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ---------------- spooi ler? as my memory serves me right ---------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- -------------- that same question is with which the play opens...... as far as I remember.... the answer is that the boy loves and adores horses as a sort of higher being, rather twisted as his religious upbringing is. When he has sex with the girl in the stable he can not stand the "accusing looks" of his high beings for committing the utter sin as his parents has told him to see sex.

my GOD............i really feel like a pedophile right now.....so wrong. and so hott, at the same time! lol. *flails*


Posted by Delielah Jan 30th 2007

Hmmmm....seeing that he is 17 and having to do a nude role, wouldn't that be like child porn?? I can't believe they would take pics like that of a 17 year old boy. (still a boy...NOT 18 yet) Shame on them!!!


Posted by xslyffindorprincessx Jan 30th 2007

The hair on the stomach is pretty gross. He's not really hot. Who is that girl with him? He's hotter playing Harry Potter. Now if that was Tom Felton, now that would be very sexy.


Posted by Phoenix707 Jan 30th 2007

they are showing way too much of his forbidden forest


Posted by Kamion Jan 30th 2007

Posted by snowy_headwig 2 hours ago Great pics for the adults, but I won't be letting my kids on for a while now. Do they have to be on the front page? ------------------ ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ---- I back you pardon.... I guess that you have learned you children swimming blindfolded.....because these pics are as pornographic as a trip to the municipal swimmingpool.


Posted by hp__lover Jan 30th 2007

darn! just last year i was having an argument with my mother saying that not all actors grow up and do stuff like that....i'm starting to think that my mother was right


Posted by Gonzo2006 Jan 30th 2007

I feel kinda weird saying a 17 yr old looks good, as I am 22 but he does. And the hair isn't bad, it shows he's a man! We all have hair, deal with it.


Posted by emma4irish Jan 30th 2007

Okay so my heart has stopped beating... This is Harry Potter?!?!?!?!


Posted by Delielah Jan 30th 2007

[quote]because these pics are as pornographic as a trip to the municipal swimmingpool. [/quote] Couldn't agree more!! If it were a 17 year old in an "adult" film it would be pornography. However,when it's in the theater (or in movies) it's considered "art". Give me a break!!! I don't think these pics should of been put on this website. It's about Harry Potter(and anything to do with the character of Harry Potter)....not Daniel Radcliff in his birthday suit.


Posted by dudley Jan 30th 2007

perfectly acceptable not a word against it lol! he's trying not to be stuck in the one role for the rest of his life and one being in theatre and two publicity like this is the right way to do it...lool!


Posted by ladykrystyna Jan 30th 2007

I think it's funny that many of you are commenting on his "hairy" chest and stomach. That's nothing. My husband isn't "monkey boy" or anything, but he's got way more hair. And, for you young ones at there, here's a little "advice" - when I was in high school, the thought of a hairy chest was disgusting to me. Totally revolting. But, I fell in love with my husband before I saw his chest. I fell in love with his personality and I know his cute face and muscular body (I could tell that even under the security officer uniform and safety gear). I only learned later that he had a hair chest . . . and you know what. It doesn't bother me! Anyway, by all means, have a preference. I'm not telling you not to. Just realize that Dan's hairyness is nothing really. And actually, a little hair does help him to look more manly, rather than like a 12 year old boy (although I have no problem with Brad Pitt and Matthew McCounaghy (is that how you spell that - who cares, right?). But they have the look of men, so that helps. It's like Leonardo Di Caprio in Titanic. He looked like a little boy. Now, he looks like a man.


Posted by Kamion Jan 30th 2007

Posted by muggleatuniv 2 hours ago I really don't like it. So what if being naked is a normal part of life - I just don't think Dan has to prove himself by being in a nude play.------ ------------ ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ---------- Radcliffe does not have to prove himself in a nude play, he has to prove himself playing a mentaly very disturbed young character and pulling it of life for an audience..... that's is a far greater challenge then puling off your pants for an audience...... everyone can do that!"


Posted by mandie2010 Jan 30th 2007

I left a comment earlier saying OMG !!! But now, after getting over the shock, Dan looks rather, dare I say it, sexy. The thing the I was freaked out about was that I had just watched the first movie just before that, so I had this mind set of a little kid doing this. However, Dan is not that little eleven year old boy and this is the perfect way to let people know that he is much more than Harry Potter, and for that I applaud him.


Posted by lauralovegood5 Jan 30th 2007

well the above 700+ comments just about sum up those pictures....hes grown up into quite a fine young man hasnt he? I knew when i saw him in ps that one day he'd be a looker and i was right. im 23 and not ashamed to say PHWOARRRRRRRRRRRR!


Posted by CJenjoysacidpops Jan 30th 2007

Posted by Phoenix707 23 minutes ago they are showing way too much of his forbidden forest lmfao. hahaha. I find it amusing that this update on MuggleNet has over 700 comments (as opposed to the Laura Mallory update, which has about 690) and people are saying it should be taken down because it's not Harry Potter related. But honestly? I think this is what's gotten the Harry Potter fandom the most riled up in a while. Haha.


Posted by illem Jan 30th 2007

Feel really depraved about this.....but loveing the swirly navel hair. Boy who lived???? I think not.....MAN who lived......very much getting there. So can't wait to watch Eqqus!


Posted by Kamion Jan 30th 2007

Posted by Delielah 17 minutes ago...................... ...... "It's about Harry Potter(and anything to do with the character of Harry Potter)....not Daniel Radcliff in his birthday suit." ----------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------- If that were so all other actions taken by Daniel Radcliffe should be banned from this site, such as his acting in October Boys or his work for Demelsa House..... those are not Harry Potter related.


Posted by Ashlee751 Jan 30th 2007

When I first looked at this yesterday I went OMG! This is Harry Potter he's so young! But then I realized that he's only two years younger than be almost exactly but it's still strange. We all think of him as the boy wizard, but that's what he's trying to get away from so he's switching it up now while he's still doing Harry Potter and he doesn't just hop into these roles so we get used to it now before the series is all over. I must say though I still feel a bit dirty/naughty while looking at these because he isnt 18 just yet and I mean he's HARRY POTTER for crying out loud. I never really thought of him as very attractive because I only saw him as a little boy but I look at him in these pictures and its like wow I guess he is turning into a man. But wasn't it barely six months ago we were all talking about his first onscreen kiss and now he's onto sex scenes... hmm. All in all I respect what he is doing. But I will always think of him deep down as an eleven year old boy, a now quite sexy eleven year old boy. I just hope that doesnt give me the creeps saying that in the future.


Posted by CJenjoysacidpops Jan 30th 2007

Haha, this update on MuggleNet is classified as 'Big News'. Along with the Book 7 title and the Movie 5 stuff. Does anyone else find that hilarious?


Posted by Ashlee751 Jan 30th 2007

thats really hilarious actually Daniel naked is right up there with the title of Book 7! ya! lol

Posted by kuramagirl119 Jan 30th 2007

oh my goodness this is so wierd


Posted by alex_c98 Jan 30th 2007

I was never a Daniel fangirl, but I gotta say, he's got a nice body. I look at him and I don't think Harry Potter anymore. =) Yay Daniel!


Posted by Nasuka Jan 30th 2007

It really must take alot of guts to do something like that. I really liked the first picture and how they posed for it, but for some reason, the idea that its Daniel there doesn't quite click in my head. I guess I just never thought I'd see him like this. I guess it's just because I love him as Harry Potter so much. I've always thought he was handsome, but this does feel a bit awkward to me.


Posted by mary_v Jan 30th 2007

Ahahaha!! Aww ickle Danny's all growed up! Meh he's cute. But as far as the pics go, I really loved the second Dan and Jill one... Dan, lying and Jill. That's a hot pic.


Posted by x3_kingl Jan 30th 2007

these pictures are soo georgeous, and they make the play look like it has to be great...wow dan is sooo hot with his stubble too wow!! i lovve the pictures!!


Posted by iceboots Jan 30th 2007

I'm losing count of the number of times this post has now been edited.


Posted by jenson12 Jan 30th 2007

I've had so much fun giggling at all of the comments on here so much so that I thought I'd have to comment. Loving the hairy comments - seriously can't belive that some people think THATS hairy! On a slightly more serious note - I think there needs to be some focus on the non gratuitous nature of the nudity in the play, it's an integral part but not the whole part. Dan looks incredible and is very brave to take on such a challenging role. He's also very brave to 'get nekid' as I well know (did it for the show HAIR and found it exhilarating and terrifying all at the same time) As for his young age, you know 17 really isn't that young I suspect if you asked him about most *stuff* he'd say been there done that got that t-shirt! on a lighter not... HOT HOT very HOT (looks a bit like my other half so I guess in a way I'm contractually obliged to say that)


Posted by MoonGirl13 Jan 30th 2007

Ugh. I just don't like him.


Posted by HPBrad16 Jan 30th 2007

Are there any more of Jill?


Posted by dark_nymph Jan 30th 2007

I love the new pics! I think my favorite one is the one of Dan surrounded by smoke. Now that is sexy! It saddens me though, to see that some fans say they will never be able to see Harry Potter in the same way again. To me, Harry will always be Harry and Dan will always be Dan, and I think it is our job as fans to respect that. I know it's inevitable that Laura Mallory will find these pics, but seeing as she has failed miserably in all of her attempts to ban these books, I don't think we need to worry. In fact, I'd pay a lot of money to see her face when she discovers the Forbidden Forrest;)


Posted by whatsername34 Jan 30th 2007

He's so manly


Posted by Renza Jan 30th 2007

*coughsplutter* Well... That's a surprise. Glad to see that it looks so natural like nothing has been tampered with. And why are people so grossed out by the fact Daniel has body hair? He's close to being a man now and a lot of guys are hairier. If I lived in London or close by I'd definitely go see this.


Posted by Armidillo71682 Jan 30th 2007

All i have to say is OMG!!! I mean im a Rupert Grint fan, but he sure looks grown there, but i do feel icky cuz he is like 7yrs younger than me.


Posted by RaineDrop Jan 30th 2007

I saw these yesterday and i was not impressed. someone needs to tell that boy about NAIR because that's just nasty. creepy child-porn. lets get some of Tom Felton starkers and maybe we'll have something worth my time.


Posted by thedanfan Jan 30th 2007

To be true I din't like the snaps. To me, till now, Dan was a smart, handsome and very sweet, innocent and very very cute guy but after viewing the snaps I have realised that he has now grown up to be an adult and not the one I had always imagined him to be. *I would have rather liked him to be Harry Potter*


Posted by Janey Jan 30th 2007

*jaw drop* HOLY &%*$!!!!!


Posted by tatka Jan 30th 2007

omg theres so many posts that i must post mine too.Daan is sexy,yes he is,i mean when i saw these pics first it didnt impressed me much but when i see them carefully i couldnt take my eyes from him ... Dan is gorgeos,and people he isnt harry potter,he is dan radcliffe.so you mustnt judge him as harry potter,i think.and its so sad that im not living in london,its so unfair


Posted by misskear Jan 30th 2007

his body isn't thaaat nice, his arms are nice. but his stomach.. not so much. certainly doesn't look like Harry Potter in those pictures.


Posted by marissa813 Jan 30th 2007

To respond/back up Delielah's comment of "However,when it's in the theater (or in movies) it's considered "art"." .... that is completely true. I'm a dancer and I've researched for various school projects famous dancers/choreographers. Martha Graham, for example, choreographed one piece [at least I only know of one], where the dancers had to be nude. While this was very controversial, as Equus also is, when has art not be controversial?


Posted by Janey Jan 30th 2007

Okay, now that I've had a little time to cool off, let me just say EWWWWW!!!! Seriously, there is something wrong when a director is watching a 17 year old boy undress, and then has the nerve to say "oh my god" Ew. Ew. Ew. Yuck!! Blech!!! And the actress who plays his girlfriend....How old is she? She looks like she's 10 years older than him. I think I'm going to throw up.


Posted by whatsername276 Jan 30th 2007

I love how many comments there are for this one.


Posted by doodles_and_spuds Jan 30th 2007

ok either ur crazy bout him or ur disgusted. frankly i tink hes NIIICE...could be better, but nice...........i certainly wouldnt kick him out of bed! *cheeky grin*


Posted by Vivian Jan 30th 2007

Oh MY! I had no idea there was nudity in Equus. I must see that play! Someday. Although that business of blinding horses is very disturbing. Dan looks hot, if skinny.


Posted by Hermionefan01 Jan 30th 2007

OMG peow peow! Since when did he get hot?
