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. Warner Bros. reps say, “we’ve been blown completely out of the water by this.”

With the collapse of the market for musicals, Warner Bros., under production head Darryl F. Zanuck, turned to more realistic and gritty storylines, 'torn from the headlines' pictures that some said glorified gangsters. The contracts of musical and silent stars were not renewed and new talent, tough-talking, working-class types, were hired that would more suitably fit in with these sort of pictures. Stars such as Dorothy Mackaill, Bebe Daniels, Frank Fay, Winnie Lightner, Bernice Claire, Alexander Gray, Alice White and Jack Mulhall that had characterized the urban, modern and sophisticated attitude of the 1920s gave way to stars such James Cagney, Joan Blondell, Edward G. Robinson, Warren William and Barbara Stanwyck who would be more acceptable to the common man.The studio was one of the most prolific producers of Pre-Code pictures and had a lot of trouble with the censors once they started clamping down on what they considered indecent (around 1934). As a result, the Warner Brothers turned out a number of historical pictures from around 1935 in order to avoid confrontations with the Breen office.
