Daniel Radcliffe News

Sometimes we’re shocked by the sheer audacity of our favourite stars. They think they can get away with just about anything! Offering drugs to Dukes? Sure. Chatting about their crack-waxing habits? No problemo. Throwing parties for the world’s most iconic girl group? All in a day’s work, it seems. Bearing this in mind, it’s reassuring to know some silly celebs can’t manage a trick our 81-year-old granddad has mastered: how to send an email. What a world we live in, eh?

STORMBREAKER author ANTHONY HOROWITZ has dropped star ALEX PETTYFER from the next movie installment - because he is too old.
Horowitz insists the 17-year-old actor won’t be reprising his role as Alex Rider in the film series, as he is now too grown up to play the child sleuth.
Stormbreaker hit cinemas in 2006 and the popularity of the book series - which includes seven novels so far - could see the film expand into a major franchise.
But Horowitz wants a new, younger actor to take over the role of the hero - who stays 14 years old throughout the books.
He says, “It was a conscious decision to keep him (Rider, the main character) at that age. Alex Pettyfer is a strapping young man so even if we were to go ahead and make the sequel, Point Blank, I don’t think he would have been up for it, even if the character had got a bit older.”
The novelist is also critical of the decision to keep Daniel Radcliffe on in the title role of the Harry Potter movies. He adds, “Daniel was beginning to look a bit adult in the films.”

The 11-year-old - nicknamed Lola - is reported to have been invited to join actor Daniel Radcliffe in the next installment of the boy wizard franchise, Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince.
Madonna is apparently considering an offer made by studio Warner Brothers.
A source tells British newspaper The Sun, “Lola has definitely inherited her mother’s hunger for fame. After all her recent public appearances, looking more like a sophisticated teen than a child, the attention on her is really growing. Offers have poured in - film offers, sponsorship.
“An executive at Warners wanted to cast Lola in the last Potter film and has renewed his interest for the next movie. Lola would love to do it - she is a huge fan.”
Lourdes - whose father is fitness trainer Carlos Leon - has also reportedly been approached to star in a kids’ musical similar to Bugsy Malone in development by Warner Brothers.
