Daniel Radcliffe made a surprise appearance at a fan screening of
The Woman in Black in New York City earlier this evening. Photos of Dan standing before a poster of the film in the Lincoln Center theater lobby can be seen below.
Dan had a rather revealing interview with Heat magazine, stating that during the shooting of the final three Harry Potter films,
Half-Blood Prince and both
Deathly Hallows installments, his alcoholism was so profound that it was practically visible on the big screen.
The former
Harry Potter actor confessed that there may be a nude scene in his future in the upcoming production of
Kill Your Darlings, in which he will portray famous beat poet Allen Ginsberg.
And for those wary of the comment Dan made earlier this month about his relationship with Rupert Grint, he had a lot more flattering words to say about his former costar and friend in the Heat interview, as well. Dan confessed at the Toronto premiere of
The Woman in Black last week that although it was true he and Rupert never texted and rarely saw each other, it made no difference to their friendship and whenever they saw each other it was as though nothing had changed between them. More on that, as well as a couple of gruesome shots of Dan in a new photo shoot, can be read and seen below.
You’re only 22. Don’t most people in their early twenties drink too much?
Daniel Radcliffe: Unfortunately it’s not that simple. I have a very addictive personality. It was a problem.
Really? There were never any stories of you going on wild benders…
Daniel: People with problems like that are very adept at hiding it. It was bad. I don’t want to go into details but I drank a lot and it was daily - I mean nightly. I can honestly say I never drank at work on Harry Potter. I went into work still drunk, but I never drank at work.
You mean Harry Potter had a hangover?!
Daniel: I can point to many scenes where I’m just gone. Dead behind the eyes.
“I’ve just been having a discussion with the guy who’s directing my new project. It might have a bit of nudity, and he said, ‘Just to let you know, if you’re getting naked, no landscaping of any kind. This is the 40s and you’re playing a Jew.’”
Radcliffe said he has no qualms about screen nudity. He added “I’m comfortable with my body.”
He said: "I'm not going to try to compete with Rupert on the arms front. His dad is a big guy, so if anyone was going to get the proper muscleman build, it was Rupert.
"You'd have to search pretty hard to find a more handsome ginger. He's also a dude. I wish I could be that calm. I'm lucky to have found an industry where this level of hyperactivity is encouraged. Otherwise I'd just be a nuisance!"
