Dan Radcliffe rumored to play Allen Ginsberg in “Kill Your Darlings”

by Keith Hawk · November 29, 2011

Last week while promoting his new film The Woman In Black, Dan Radcliffe spoke to the French press saying he would likely be playing a gay character very soon. We kept this information in the rumor bin until something more concrete was released.

Well, now we have something: Sources have told a news outlet that Dan will be portraying the character of Allen Ginsberg in a thriller that is based on actual events titled, Kill Your Darlings.

This film will revolve around the relationship between Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, and Lucien Carr. Carr is most notoriously known for his 1944 murder of his lover David Kammerer.

Additionally, MTV has reported that Dan has also been writing a new script at the moment when he has free time. Dan told MTV News, “I am trying to write a script, which is fun and frustrating and terrible at the moment but hopefully will be good at some point.”

What kind of role would you like to see Dan perform next? Let us know in the comments below.

Potter Quote

“Well – it’s just that you seem to be laboring under the delusion that I am going to – what is the phrase? – come quietly. I am afraid I am not going to come quietly at all, Cornelius. I have absolutely no intention of being sent to Azkaban. I could break out, of course – but what a waste of time, and frankly, I can think of a whole host of things I would rather be doing.”
