GIRL ABOUT TOWN: Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe agrees to role in a new film... about children's toys Playmobil
Since the final Harry Potter film in 2011, Daniel Radcliffe has tried to carve out a career as a ‘serious’ actor.
But will his latest role put him back to square one? Daniel, 28, has agreed to star in a children’s movie based around children’s toy Playmobil.
The filmmakers must be hoping Daniel can bring his magic touch to the plastic characters of Playmobil and there is undoubtedly a large cheque involved.
It couldn’t be more different from Daniel’s 2013 film Horns, in which he played a suspected rapist.

When Broadchurch star Olivia Colman was cast as The Queen in Netflix’s The Crown she may have believed that – daunting though the role may be – there would be no awkward sex scenes.
Not so. I hear writer Peter Morgan is merrily preparing some raunchy antics for his TV monarch, who will be in her mid-40s when the third series starts.
Says my source: ‘Peter has been writing sex scenes but people in the production team aren’t so sure about them.’
Last week I revealed that Peter is desperate to write a script with more thrills. He said: ‘I dream of writing violence and profanity.’
Hugh Laurie, 58, is tipped to play Philip to Olivia’s Elizabeth.
A spokesman for Morgan said, ‘The scripts are still being written, production is still a way off.’
