Reviews are in



The reviews are in . Harry Potter's debut as an onstage actor in "Equus" , at London's West End Theater, is a rave! The audience was expecting to see the infamous "Harry Potter" character on stage but were pleasantly surprised when Radcliffe broke the mold. He was able to capture the audience and proved himself as a serious actor outside of his role as "Harry Potter." The big wonder was how Daniel was going to be in the infamous nude scene which caused a lot of controversy when it was announced that Radcliffe was going to play the character of Alan Strang. Critics said he did a very good job he was brave and managed to stay in character. They said it did not seem to phase Radcliffe that he was naked, he just went on in order to keep the audience interested. How could you not be interested? "Harry Potter" gets naked, people who have seen this play are going to have a difficult time watching the next movie installment " Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" without thinking of him being nude. All in all the reviews were very good and Daniel Radcliffe owned the stage in "Equus."

Here is the first London review.

Harry Potter is all grown up. He went from a young wizard to being naked on stage in a play called Equus. Daniel Radcliffe plays a young stable hand who has a bad sexual experience and in return blinds six horses. He is set to be naked on stage with his 24 year old co-star Joanna Christie for 10 minutes. There are many studio executives at Warner Bros. who fear publicity shots of Radcliffe naked could seriously interfere with the Harry Potter empire. The studio is set to release Harry Potter and the Order of The Pheonix this summer, but are afraid parents won't want their children to see the movie because of all the publicity surrounding this play. There is talk that they may have to replace the young wizard with a new one. If this were to occur the Harry Potter franchise would suffer greatly. People don't want to see a new Harry Potter all of a sudden. Radcliffe created the face of the young wizard and the movies just would not be the same without him.
