”Harry Potter” star Daniel Radcliffe is desperate to play a gay spy.The 18-year-old actor is planning to audition for the role of a boy at boarding school in the 30s who falls in love with his best friend and later becomes an undercover agent in a remake of the 1984 movie “Another Country.”
The film adaptation of Julian Mitchell’s play, which originally starred Rupert Everett in both the stage and screen version, is loosely based on the life of Guy Burgess, who became a double agent working for the Soviet Union, and was famously part of the Cambridge Five spy ring.
Earlier this week, Daniel - who appeared naked on stage in the London play “Equus” - revealed he was interested in playing characters who are exploring their sexuality.Speaking at a press conference for his latest movie “December Boys,” he said: “I’d never play a gay character just for the sake of playing a gay character.”
“If the script was good, and it was a good gay character then, I’m 18, and so the parts I’m going to be getting will be open for around that age range.”
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have caused such a stir at son Maddox’s new school the headmaster has been forced to warn parents not to pester them.Dan Cooke, Director of Operations the Lycee Francais de New York - where six-year-old Maddox recently enrolled - has written to parents requesting they stop taking photographs and asking Hollywood’s golden couple for autographs.
The letter - which was leaked to the New York Observer newspaper - said: “Regretfully, I have seen some parents taking pictures, asking for autographs, talking to the media and even shouting at Ms. Jolie and Mr. Pitt for recognition.”
“Therefore, in the interests of the school and safety of your children I must ask for everyone to please respect the family’s privacy and discontinue these practices.”
The principle also revealed he met Brad and Angelina’s security team before Maddox started at the school in September.
The MTV comic star says the “Mean Girls” star - who is currently in rehab being treated for drug and alcohol abuse - came to his house and left with a bag of his drugs, which he refers to as a “Boog Suge.”
Steve-O told shock jock Howard Stern on his Sirius radio show: “Lindsay had left her wallet in my bathroom and she came back to my place to get it and while she was there she took a Boog Suge home with her too.”"I haven’t heard from her since she went to rehab.”The “Jackass” star even has proof Lindsay was at his house because she signed a release form for a DVD he was filming there at the time.Meanwhile, Lindsay’s mother Dina Lohan has denied reports her daughter is leaving rehab.
A friend of Lindsay’s claimed the 21-year-old actress - who entered Utah’s Cirque Lodge in August after being arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence - was due to check out at the weekend.When asked to comment on the rumors, Dina said: “It’s not true. She is staying in Utah.”
