Daniel Radcliffe's 'Kill Your Darlings' Style Transformation

Image
Daniel Radcliffe transforms into Allen Ginsberg on the set of "Kill Your Darlings." Photo: Getty Images Does Daniel Radcliffe never stop?? It feels like this guy JUST finished promoting the release of his period thriller The Woman In Black . Now, he's already in hair and makeup (and spiffy collegiate wardrobe) for a new project, playing poet Allen Ginsberg in indie film Kill Your Darlings . Charged with portraying one of the founding fathers of the Beat Generation, Daniel Radcliffe underwent a pretty serious style transformation to better fill these roomy oxfords. In his regular life (which, okay... consists of step and repeats, press junkets, and photocalls), Daniel favors a polished yet laidback style aesthetic. He'll button-up a well-ironed collared shirt, but in a casual fabric like denim or chambray. He'll also throw a chunky knit over top. And he won't tuck it in. Skinnier pants are a must, as is rough and tumble footwear like these streamlined combat ...

Kristen Stewart Watch Out! Robert Pattinson Is 'Wild And Sexy' According To Daniel Radcliffe

Image
Daniel Radcliffe has finally come round to our way of thinking after he described Robert Pattinson as wild and sexy in a recent interview. Asked if he ever hangs out with the 'Twilight Saga' star, Daniel who worked with Rob on Harry Potter when Rob played Cedric Diggory , admitted that meeting up with Rob is hard due to their hectic schedules. However, that didn't stop the 'Woman In Black' actor gushing (in a purely platonic way) about his fellow actor, telling Premiere.fr: He's a sex symbol. He's sexy and just needs to do his brooding look for girls to fall. He has the perfect height to seduce girls, Im the total opposite. He's a hottie alright! Comparing himself to Rob, who can be seen playing womaniser Georges Duroy in 'Bel Ami', Daniel added: He might be charming and cute, wild and sexy .. I do not have this kind of status, just look at pictures in the press. "When were put side by side, I look a little silly or I make faces whereas ...

March 21, 2012 - 17:17 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The casting gods continue to smile on Allen Ginsberg. Despite bearing only a tenuous physical resemblance to the legendary Beat poet, Daniel Radcliffe will play Ginsberg in the upcoming thriller "Kill Your Darlings" , The Wrap reported.

Screening Room: Daniel Radcliffe Channels Hipster Harry Potter On Set as Allen Ginsberg

Image
(Getty Images, BauerGriffin) Trailer of the Week Sound of my Voice - April 27, 2012 The most chilling release at Sundance last year was an independent film called Sound of my Voice . The trailer was finally released this week and you can see why the movie received such a strong reaction. The story follows two investigative journalists as they infiltrate a secretive cult led by a mysterious woman who claims to be from the future. Sounds insane right? Well, one look into the cold eyes of Maggie (played by Brit Marling ) and you'll be a believer too. Fox Searchlight bought the rights last year and decided to hold the film until 2012 (probably due to the release of another film based in the cult world - Martha Marcy May Marlene ). The film looks like an auspicious debut for co-writer/director Zal Batmanglij .

We could hardly believe our eyes earlier today when new snaps of former Harry Potter star Mr Radcliffe landed on the Mc.co.uk desk. The actor has been hard at work on the set of new movie Kill Your Darlings , and he's never look more different. DANIEL RADCLIFFE: CAREER IN PICTURES A dramatic movie makeover if ever we saw one, Dan has swapped his Potter specs for horn rimmed glasses and his Hogwarts robes for tweed to take on the new role, as gay poet Allen Ginsberg. It's thought the movie, written and directed by John Krokidas, will be based on real events from the American Beat Generation movement, telling the story of the relationship between Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac and Lucien Carr. Ginsberg was a leading figure of the Beat in 1950s New York, a movement that was highly critical of US materialism, censorship and sexual repression. His friendship with fellow writer Kerouac began whe...

FIRST LOOK: Daniel Radcliffe As Allen Ginsberg

Image
The first photos of Daniel Radcliffe as gay Beat poet Allen Ginsberg in the film Kill Your Darlings have emerged, courtesy of People magazine . The film will tell the true story of Ginsberg's friendship with On the Road author Jack Kerouac (Jack Huston) and Lucien Carr (Dane DeHaan), a fellow member of their close circle of friends who later became identified with the Beat movement in literature. In 1944, Carr, who was heterosexual and is the father of The Alienist author Caleb Carr, murdered David Kammerer, who had been obsessively pursuing the 19 year old Carr. While some of their friends presumed the two men were sexually involved, Carr and their mutual friend William Burroughs insisted they weren't. Radcliffe, a longtime advocate for equality who has recorded several PSAs on behalf of the suicide prevention group, the Trevor Project, will play his first gay character in the film. Entertainment Weekly reports Elizabeth Olsen will play Kerouac's first wife Edie and Be...

Daniel Radcliffe Plays Beat Poet Allen Ginsberg

Image
Daniel Radcliffe as Beat poet Allen Ginsburg Jason Winslow-Tom Meinelt/Splash News Online The glasses aren't new, but the curly hair sure is. In a bit of casting against type, Daniel Radcliffe is playing Beat Generation poet Allen Ginsburg in a movie now shooting in Brooklyn Kill Your Darlings and this is among the very first looks of the Harry Potter star in character. The independent film tells the real-life story of the young Ginsberg's meeting fellow Beat legends Jack Kerouac ( On the Road ) and Lucien Carr in 1944 and of the murder of Carr's former English teacher, David Kammerer, which resulted in a sensational trial and Carr's imprisonment. "I'm very, very enthused for that script and that young director" John Krokidas, Radcliffe, 22, told MTV last January. In his freshman college year, Ginsberg (1926-97) met Carr when they lived in the same Columbia University dorm. Carr, in turn introduced him to Kerouac and other future Beat writers, includi...

Daniel Radcliffe admits he has a vengeful streak

Image
Daniel Radcliffe Daniel reveals that it would not be easy for him to forgive and forget if someone wronged him. Daniel Radcliffe doesn't think he's as nice as his heroic character in the Harry Potter film series and instead would be quite vengeful. The 22-year-old actor says he'd have to get his own back on a person in real-life if they treated him badly. Daniel says: Deep down, I think I'm capable of being quite vengeful. I haven't had to be yet because I haven't been wronged, but I know it's in me. The 'Harry Potter' star whose latest film 'The Woman In Black' has reached huge success - becoming the highest grossing British horror movie of the last 20 years - believes his unforgiving nature is something he gets from his parents. Speaking to the Daily Mail Weekend Daniel revealed: One of my parents is very good at bearing grudges (I won't say which!). I've inherited the quality.

Daniel Radcliffe: 'Celebrities Aren't Special'

Image
Daniel Radcliffe claims the key to staying grounded as a star is never to think that you are special. The Harry Potter became an overnight superstar when he was thrust to fame at the age of 11 in the wizarding saga. The 22 year-old insists that once you start thinking you are a star you will crave the admiration too much and for him. He told French magazine Be : The idea is to never believe that you are special just because you are famous... Otherwise, the day when celebrity vanishes, it's the best way to end up in a reality TV show!" Despite his global stardom as the boy wizard Harry Potter, the Woman In Black star claimed that fame has not affected his life that much. "I think it's less violent for an actor than for an actress, as paparazzi are much more threatening [with them], he explained when asked about his extreme celebrity status. The 'Potter' star even believes his well-documented problems with alcohol are down to his addictive personality rather tha...
