False rumor: Dan Radcliffe tipped for war role

Contact Music (about as reliable as The Sun - a British tabloid) is reporting that Daniel Radcliffe has been tipped to star in the adaptation of an acclaimed book about the second world war, Birdsong.

Mugglenet have commented that:

In other words, this film is supposed to have been happening for years now; there's not much chance of it ever happening - least of all in the next few years. As fans know, we dont advise anyone to believe any casting rumors inside or out of Harry Potter films, until they're confirmed by either the actual actor, a person who represents them or a studio representative.

Cool first to reply!!!! :rolleyes: I hate rumors on HP.

At least its not real. I just rubbish rumors! :shifty:

Don't these rumour starters have day jobs or something to be getting on with.... umm....apparently NOT!!! :rolleyes:

Interesting. I never imagined him starring in any other movies besides Harry Potter...

Why would anyone think that rumor is true when they know thats he's way to busy with the HP movie series? Rumors...so pathetic.

I hate these rumors You never know if they are true or not. :unsure:

Wow, British tabloids are as ridiculous as American tabloids. Rumours crack me up!!

[\"By the time it gets made, the star of Harry Potter could end up being old enough to do it - is he a good actor?\" ]

I think this is more of a comment on how long it has taken to get this project off the ground, rather than saying Daniel has been tipped. The quote does say "could end up being".

Yeah but knowing die hard fans/tabloids this might more than likely be misconstrued or else twisted to mean something entirely different. Therefore it's better to say this now than have to wait till later and then have to say it.

Daniel Radcliffe in a war movie? Okay, I DON'T see Dan doing something like that. Maybe if he was older, it would sound cool.

ewww, that is gross if he is 15, maybe in 5-10 years.....

It's realism; kids younger than him used to go to war...but yeah it's unfounded.

I think daniel radcliffe is a great actor, and as harry he has to pass thorugh a lot of suffering, but a war movie, is not how I imagine the next project for the person who personalize Harry Potter.

rumors!! :lol:

^ I understood that part thats it not going to be made for like another ten years, but at the end of the day, it's still a rumour! :lol:

Daniel is soooooooooo HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry, couldn't resist. :eyebrows: well, when he gets through with the HP movies, i can't wait to see what he does after them! :huh:

Err...silly rumours!! I'm really looking forward to seeing Dan in projects other than HP, though. It'd be great to see how well he can adjust after being the same character for so many years.

tht is so weird of how long tht movie is supossed to be startin to film that movie but i am glad tht rumour has been put to stop :-)

Its not really a rumor. The article is saying by the time the movie gets made the Harry Potter star could be old enough to star in it. There just using Dan as an example of how long the film has been delayed. There not actually saying he might have a role in it.

I dunno whether to believe this or not... Oh well, like what Thewlis said in an interview; Dan would surely be typecast so it'll be hard for him to make a new name in other movies...

i htink they are just using the HP stars asa n example.. like to prove how much time the movie has been delayed.. and most likely will be in the future..

I hate hate hate rumors! they are a waste of time!
