I was honestly hoping that Daniel Radcliffe won't turn into a loony any time soon. He's good looking and a promising actor with a clear love for the cinema and theater alike, who's not afraid to take on controversial parts and is quite the risk taker.
Otherwise, you would not have seen him almost naked on stage in the London success Equus which is bound to come to the West End soon enough. He proved to the world that he can bring one of the most popular literary characters of the past decade on screen successfully, and now he's out to make a name for himself far away from the shadow of Harry Potter.
But the young actor who came to be known as the boy wizard is starting to display some pretty bizarre ideas lately - the latest of which is connected to his death. The "Harry Potter" star apparently plans to go out in style when he dies after being inspired by a TV show.
The 18-year-old actor, who plays the part of a World War I soldier in a new TV movie called "My Boy Jack", told the Sun: "I'd like my ashes to be fired out of a cannon with 'Let him RIP' on the urn. I saw it on TV once - brilliant!". Um, yeah, only it sounds a bit strange coming from a young boy of only 18. But for his own good, I will choose to believe that, in fact, he was just a little bit over-spirited and impressed with the TV show in question.
In a more interesting turn of events, Daniel also confessed he has a crush on sexy actress Scarlett Johansson. "I'm slightly in love with Scarlett Johansson, she's stunning brilliant and incredibly sexy".
He also promised that on his 21st birthday he will go completely wild. Well, as long as Scarlett Johansson is invited to the party, I don't see any undesirable outcome of that particular confession - and in any case, we're counting on Daniel not to screw around too much. I mean, we all get tired of Brit Brit at some point in our lives and need a bit of normality in it. I think.
