RUMOR: Daniel Radcliffe to star in “Young Americans”

by Sophie Reid · October 8, 2014

A rumor is flying around that Daniel Radcliffe will be starring in a film called Young Americans alongside Kill Your Darlings co-star Dane DeHann. No official announcements have been made, yet, and the IMDb page is rather scarce of information.

Kill Your Darlings director John Krokidas is linked to the project, after having been announced as the director for upcoming YA project Wonder. Here’s what we know:

He’s attached to direct Young Americans, which will reunite him with Radcliffe and De Haan, and he recently turned in his rewrite (with Austin Bunn) of High Rise for Fox 2000.

It is rumored that Daniel will play Lee Atwater. The only summary on IMDb tells us,

A young Karl Rove vies for the position of chief campus conservative under the guidance of Lee Atwater.

Hopefully, we’ll find out more soon.

What do you think? Would you like to see Daniel work alongside Dane and John again? Let us know your thoughts!

February 17, 2005 – A visitor of the Goblet of Fire set told MuggleNet that only Sirius’s head would make an appearance during the fireplace scene, making Gary Oldman fans upset at his minor appearance.
