Daniel Radcliffe: 'Horns' Script Is So Good

Daniel Radcliffe stops to sign a few autographs for fans after arriving at Vancouver International Airport in Vancouver, Canada on Sunday afternoon (September 30).

The 23-year-old actor is in town to start filming on Horns, which centers on a young man, who is the prime suspect in the brutal killing of his girlfriend. After sprouting horns from his head after a hangover, he uses their ability to force people to confess their darkest sins to find his girlfriend’s real killer.

“The script is so good, the story,” Daniel recently told MTV. “There’s nothing really, I think, that can be so exciting to an actor as an original idea. It’s an original idea that’s tackled in an original, fresh and vibrant way.”

He added, “There are opportunities, especially at the beginning of the script, for some very dark humor. It’s a script that, as it goes on, becomes really very emotional. It has the potential to be very moving and kind of heartbreaking, really.”
