You people are ridiculus. (Boggart?! Where?!? (Yeah, I know, couldn't resist))
I love Dan Radcliffe, of course, but I simply cannot look at these...I don't know...I feel wrong about it...everyone else is all "it's just a human body" but, I don't know. Maybe it's just the fact that I'm only 15 and I've never even kissed anyone or anything, so I'm just feeling a tad awkward and immature here.
he sorta looks like Elijah Wood in the second picture
muggledork2011: yup, grey's anatomy fan right here! lol. yeah, i kinda agree... he sort of looks like McSteamy (though i am in love with McDreamy haha) but i think that he really looks a lot like Elijah Wood (Frodo). AHHHH harry has a beard lol. imagine the confidence he must have to get up on live stage like that... i wonder how they're going to control the harry potter fans if they see him live lol. that said, i find it kinda akward... don't get me wrong i totally respect that he wants to branch out as an actor but isn't this a bit extreme? maybe its just because i will always see him as "harry potter"... which is what he is trying to (unfortunately) break his image away from with the whole "i can do other roles". but he will always be harry potter to me :)
he looks hot! luvvin the manly stubble mmmhmmm!
*wolf wistles* hottie. On toast. The second pic makes him lookm hotter, with the way he's posing. Nice stubble, looks hot hot hot. Wanna meet him lol.
Wow! I never really thought of Dan as Harry, so it doesn't seem as wierd as if he were harry in my mind. But i view them as two seperate entities, so i don't feel wierd saying he is HOT. its like the bathroom scene in hp but ten times better. i don't see why people are so upset at these pictures because we saw almost the same thing in GoF (though not as far down) but not as...mature looking. I never thought of dan as good looking before the fourth movie, and i really think he is now.
Lol. welll... from the comments in the article.. "Oh my god" and the like, I have to say hes either hung like a horse or pitifully small LOL.
all u people are sickos . . . i think i'm gonna puke, he's so ugly . . .
i think.. i may have to go see this play now... wow :O
OMG… Soooo nice…. Tasteful, gorgeous… I have officially lost my peace of mind…
I so want to go see that play *curses living halfway around the world*
AAAAAAH HAHAHA! That's so funny! See, he's a "serious actor" now. Seriously though I think he's being quite mature. I wouldn't have the guts to do that at any age.
I completely agree with Quidditchgirl24, Dan has moved way too fast in this career and if my speculations are correct, he has completely ruined his career as an actor. If i weren't such a huge harry potter fan, I might not go see the rest of the movies. I do believe that I have been scarred for life. (Okay, maybe I'm being a bit dramatic.) P.S. Sheesh, I live in the midwest and I haven't even seen SNOW that white.
Harry Potter and the Reaches of Puberty
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! *cove rs eyes* GROSS! He is so unattractive! So hairy! Can't he shave his stomach? And what about his pits? And can't he work out a little! COVER UP! *runs away screaming in horror*
*DROOL*
Oh my...Dan looks so manly :S And I have a weakness for darkhaired, blue-eyed men, but for the first time Dan is appealing...But Im 21... Am I already eager for a younger man??? ;-)
He's still unworthy to play Harry potter. He's developed skills to make him a barely passable actor but that's not enough. Daniel totally lacks a true talent, the spark, the "X factor" that only good entertainers have. I think he should be a porn star or a model because going naked on stage doesn't make him a good actor, I mean Paris Hilton did it and now people say she's talented while she's definetely not. Daniel won't be Harry Potter for the rest of his life because he didn't even manage to play Harry right so far. I wish they bring a decent actor to bring Harry to life, not this crap.
Harry Potter and the Reaches of Puberty **** LMFAO! It's so true
Blehh I don't get how everyone thinks people look hotter without clothes on I think the opposite.
OMG!!! He runied his careet!! I mean, who will like him when he's.. you know.. HAIRY!! TOO Hairy (not Harry, hairy)
I find this completely repulsive and immature. Daniel needs to grow up and face his issues with needing this much attention at so young. He is only seventeen and is clearly unable to see that so many children view him as Harry Potter, their hero. This is entirely out of line. I've lost my respect for Daniel. lennyseberet, I agree with you; I would probably consider not seeing the rest of the movies if Harry Potter wasn't my life.
Erlack...I think I'm scarred for life. I'm just not attracted to Daniel Radcliffe. At all.
You guys are making me laugh so freakin much! LOL
Should have shaved his belly... . But: makes him "edgy" in a way, so I guess it might have been a director's choice too.
Oh. My. God. Wow, that's really...something. an d yeah! he does look a lot like frodo (elijah woods) in the 2nd one. the facial hair also suits him...that's all I'm gojng to say.
The fact that so many girls think these pictures are attractive is a scientific phenomenon. I think there should be a study done on this. But then again, the How-Could-Any-Woman-Actua lly-Want-To-Compete-For-F lavor-Flav Case is still pending.
Gotta hand it to him. The whole thing is a pretty brave endeavor to take on. But he's right. If he wants to show everyone he can be more than Harry, taking a role that is so very opposite him is the perfect way.
I completely agree, natasha06.
OMG HOT HOT HOT!! and i didnt find him appealing until these pics!! DANG!! :-D :-D
Everybody will go wolf whisteling in that play..."YOU SUCK DANIEL! GO BE A PORN STAR!"
Wow, people need to calm down! He's Harry Potter, whether you like it or not. He's also doing a play where he portrays a disturbed young man. He's not 12 years old anymore. He can grow a beard, something he's been able to do since he was at least 13. Deal with it! And this is coming from someone who at first didn't like the idea of his being in "Equus".
*mouth drops open* HOLY fudge SHITTT. THATS FREAKIN HOTT RIGHT THEREE. OMGG. SEXY BODY MUCH?! HAHAHA =DDDD. I LIKE IT. A LOTT. =D AHHHH I LOVE DAN! HE IS SO.....OMGG HAHAHA
Just a word: "WOW" Amazing, stunning, gorgeous, perfect... *sight* He looks grown up and so different from HP!!
Have any of you haters thought about how tough it has to be for him to do this? Honestly, think about yourself - would YOU be able to get up onstage in front of SO MANY PEOPLE, completely naked? It takes guts. It has nothing to do with being an attention seeker. I could NEVER get up onstage naked in front of a million people, and I doubt you could, either. So props to Dan for his courage.
rivendellroseOSU, you're obviously not from the UK. We don't care about that stuff here. Sure, I'd do it.
wow. i find it REALLY hysterical that so many of you are like "omg he is so hott". this is nowhere near as good as the title of Book Seven being released, and everyone was like "YAY!" for that and now people are leaving whole long paragraphs like this one.
Why does an actor have to bare all just so we say he's an adult now? Does being an adult and mature means that you have to show your you-know-what?! lol. Sorry Daniel today you have lost one fan..I actually preferred your clean boyish looks...now that idea I had of you is shattered. I just hope JKR dosen't do Harry to do the same! :o)
Some of you need to grow up. Actors take their clothes off all the time and Dan is an actor, not Harry Potter. Some of the younger girls are surprised by his "hair" but they'll get over it. Lol. At first glance I thought this was to do with slash fanfiction!
Geez, I can't believe how immature some of you are. Yes, I know there are 12 year olds on this board, but c'mon. Boys grow into men and have beards and hair on their chests. That's what happens. Perhaps you haven't had that class yet. Talk to your mommies about it. As for his acting, it's getting better all the time and I think he will be incredible in OOTP. I wish I was in the UK so I can see him in Equus. It is a great career move - coming from somebody with a career, not somebody still in 8th grade. It is an incredibly well written play and deals with mature subject matter. Dan is a perfect choice for the role.
OHHHHHHHHH dear.... dearie dearie me.... *drools* this CANT be good for my imagination! :-P
No, I'm not from the UK - but neither are quite a few commenters here, I'm sure. And there are still quite a lot of people who would not have the guts to do that. And props to you for your courage as well.
The hair goes down far on his chest, so that means something else is quite hairy too lol
There are so many people making such negative comments! I can understand on some levels how some people may think to show the photo's on this site may be somewhat innapropriate, but honestly people, they're not full frontal nudity! They're tastefully shot photographs of a young man who obviously feels very comfortable in his own skin. You see so many child stars emerging into such messed up adults, and he obviously seems very comfortable in his body. This is an incredibly brave move. Face it people he's not a child anymore, he's a man and a very attractive one at that I must say! And as a man he is perfectly within his rights to embrace the oppertunities he's being offered. He's said repeatedly that he wants to be able to step from being a child star to a serious actor and part of that is that he needs to make that step away from the series, or he'll forever be known as 'that kid who played harry potter.' It's a beautiful play, and he looks beautiful in it! Oh and to that certain person who said, and I quote "*runs away screaming in horror*"--- men are hairy it's perfectly natural, darling.
Classic. I can't wait for the billions of responses this will generate! Does anyone else strangely get the image of him being a Centaur in the pic with the horse? Don't know why I'm thinking that, I'm not mental or anything... So, people are going to have to accept that he's now grown-up and not a kid anymore. You've got to give him credit for doing this and setting out to improve as an actor. This is a huge undertaking for him. He could just sit back and just do HP then leave acting, but I'm glad he's doing other things, he's improved with each HP movie, his Ootp performance should be fantastic.
i congratulate dan for doing this. god for him. if he wants to be naked on stage, go for it. ... and this may be the fangirl coming out on me, but in the quote where it says somethng like "he has no problem taking his clothes off/he was confident with his body," well that must mean that, well.. cough cough ... if you know what i'm saying. sorry if that was compltely out of line, but i just thought i'd point that out. hha.
*gasps and faints* *wakes up* I will never see Harry Potter the same way again, darn... so hot! I'm going to buy the play!
OH MY GOD. MY LIFE IS NOW COMPLETE. HE . IS . SO . FREAKING . GORGEOUS. AAAAAHHHHH!
Absolutely hysterical reading some of these comments. just a few points: - Dan is perfectly entitled to make his own decisions when it comes to his career, its not a porno show for goodness sake its an excellent play, those who are claiming it will ruin him and its revolting etc etc should actually take the time to read it. - I never realised so many of you are prudes, you can see the title of this topic, dont want to see him with no shirt on? dont click on the pictures! - Oh and so what if he has hair on his chest, it is actually quite normal believe it or not, here in the UK we have the ability to look beyond the superficial
