Hogwarts RPG Name: Melina Fay Roscoe First Year | DRFC Discussion 7 - My Boy Jack Quote:
"I’m Dan Radcliffe, and I’d like to tell you about a film I am making next year for ITV1.
In World War I, millions of young men were killed fighting for their country - many were only 17 years old.
It’s a period I am particularly fascinated by, which is why I was thrilled to be asked by Ecosse Films to play the title role in a major new drama called My Boy Jack.
The film is about Rudyard Kipling and his son. Kipling was one of several high profile figures who took an active role in persuading young men to fight in World War I. His own son Jack, however, had such poor eyesight that the army refused to accept him. Indeed, it was only through Kipling’s personal intervention that Jack eventually gained a commission with the Irish guards.
Written by and starring David Haig as Kipling, My Boy Jack is a moving and powerful story NOT ONLY of duty, sacrifice and bravery, but also the horror of war.
Today nearly a hundred years on YOUNG MEN ARE STILL GOING OFF TO FIGHT IN WAR. MANY WILL NEVER RETURN."
| So Dan's staring in a new film, what are your opinions on it?  |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Ella Chloe Stone Fifth Year | I know it's a very late response to this topic. But better late than Never After all the Sequences of Equus I think it's like a walk on the cake for Dan I think. Yeah As he already says Stage performance demands a lot from the artist than a film. You can Edit or retake the shots. But on the stage it's impposible. In my Opinion My Boy Jake is a welcome project and as well as the didfferent one for Dan's career  |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Jill Garza Third | I'd love to see this when it comes out. What it says on the last line, is very true...
Mathi, that's right. I think we've all known for a hwile that Dan was going to do but anyway, this is another good choice for Dan to do... |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Melina Fay Roscoe First Year | Yep, that's true alright. I mean, when a young actor performs such a demanding role as Dan does in Equus, I'm pretty sure that he is up to pratically anything concerning acting. Besides, as you have already pointed out, Matt, during a film there will be cuts and possibilities to re-shoot a scene so I am more than sure that he'll be able to be part of another beautiful film and role ^^
Anyway, I find it terrific that Dan is taking part on films concerning what war does to people and such. I think that it'll help people to stop thinking of him as 'the kid who plays Harry Potter' if they don't stop thinking that way after Equus of course  |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Melina Fay Roscoe First Year | I'm sorry to hear that :/ I hope your friend is alright *hugs*
I wonder what's going to happen in the film though... It's strange to be used to know sort of exactly what has been filmed for the HP films and then not be able to know a thing of what's in store for other films where Dan performs. Has anyone got any theories and such? ^^ |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Melina Fay Roscoe First Year | Yes, I believe so too. I just hope he isn't doing this just because he wants people to stop seeing him as Harry Potter, because that will be quite hard in my opinion =/ |

Keylee May Magical Games & Sports | I so can't wait for My Boy Jack to come out in America. I whatced some scence on YourTube and it looks amazing. I was telling my dad about it and he thinks it sounds good. War moive teach you alot. thats why I like them. I learn so much more. But i'm so getting it in April and whating it. I'm excited. I think that dan did do the role justice. He has come so far as an actor and continues to grow everye time we see him do somehting new. And I think MBJ has help that so much. |

Cassandra (Cassie) Serena Carter Magical Law Enforcement | I managed to get to watch it, and I live in the US (I love YouTube, hehehe) Jack Kippling was my favorite character, go figure. Dan was awesome playing Jack, he really was. I told myself that I wouldn't cry when it came to the death scene, hopefully everyone knows that Jack dies, anyway, after that scene I cried my eyes out. And of course I watched it in the early morning so after I watched the movie I couldn't sleep cuz I was still crying.
Anywhoo, I'm not a big fan of war movies, never have been, but My Boy Jack is definately one of my favorite movies, Dan was amazing in the movie, and he really brought Jack out to us.
Okay, I'll stop no before I keep repeating myself and probably end up making no sense at all, if I haven't done that already.  |

Keylee May Magical Games & Sports | Oh my gosh I just saw MY Boy Jack last night and it was amazing. Dan did a really good job in it. It made me asad at the end. I wasnted to cry. But he has proven himself as an actor and did a really good job. I am so buying My Boy Jack on DVD it comes out tommorow. I wish I pre ordered but didn't have time. But it was well done and fast paced and didn't drag on thats what made it good and also helped that Dan was in and looked hot. |
