Daniel Radcliffe gets spooked in the Woman in Black trailer

Oct. 14, 2011by: Paul Tassi

With Harry Potter behind him, Daniel Radcliffe is looking to break out of his box in a way that doesn’t require getting naked with horses on stage.

He’s set for a Victorian-era thriller, WOMAN IN BLACK, where he must investigate a haunted house. It looks suitably creepy, but boy, is it ever going to be hard to not see him as a boy wizard. Even during this trailer, I was picturing him as an auror, ready to whip out his wand and send these demons back to hell with a patronus.

Check out the trailer below, and see if you can dissociate him. It might take a few films after this one, but I think he’ll get there and be one of those child actors who actually grows up and succeeds in the business.

Extra Tidbit: I laugh any time I even THINK about his guest spot on Extras.

He'll be just fine post-Potter. He seems genuine about wanting to be an actor rather than just a star. I believe he can do it.

BTW, a ghost story is always welcome from me.

The film should be good so long as it doesn't give Radcliffe too many opportunities to display that weirdly unnatural grin of his.
You know there's something wrong with the world when they'll pay millions to an actor who can't smile convincingly.

my life goal if I was an actor would be to be in movies thatd live forever. If it was me, and I was finished with one of the most successful franchises ever,Id take the cash and start up some kick business empire. But best of luck to him

Looks excellent and genuinely creepy. I expect Daniel Radcliffe to continue shining for years to come. Aside from Harry Potter he's done some really great work. December Boys was a very good movie and My Boy Jack was great (his performance in that was stunning).

Looks good, but....

I couldn't helping laughing at the opening scene. I was going into this trailer trying to not think about Harry Potter, then the first thing I see is a train that reminded me of Harry Potter. Looks like a good movie though and I think Daniel will do fine in his career.

Looks fine I hope Mr Radcliffe succeeds in departing from the Harry Potter series with style. Oh and I hope Emma Watson does porn of course.....

I think that a lot of people will be going to see it just because of him. (I'm sure the studio is banking on that $$$) I will probably be one of those people, but I agree with you Paul, I think that this guy will make it. He has had the opportunity to work with some of the best actors ever, he must have learned something. Let's hope he doesn't squander what he's been taught.

Looks good but yes will be tough to not expect a wand to come out. Harry Potter, afraid of ghosts? Bitch please, not after dealing with Peeves.
Kinda like watching Sarah Michelle Gellar in The Grudge right after Buffy...Buffy scared of some little ghosts?

This movie has looked great since the first clips were released. Can't wait to see it.
