Warner Bros Studios is freaking out that Daniel Radcliffe, star of the Harry Potter movie series, will be nude on stage in a London play. Equus was first staged more than 30 years ago and reports say that Radcliffe was thrilled to have been cast for such an adult role as he is eager to establish himself as a grown-up actor and not merely a boy wizard. The 17 year-old appears on stage nude for approximately 10 minutes and promotional posters for the play show an undressed Radcliffe as well.
