Equus star Daniel Radcliffe.
When Daniel Radcliffe, who famously won over the young and the young at heart with his adorable portrayal of Harry Potter on the big screen, was announced to play the role of Alan Strang in Peter Shaffer’s Equus, we all knew that the mop-headed lad was headed for a new kind of stardom. And here's proof. Indeed, the actor is bound to win mature audiences by taking on the complex and difficult role of a disturbed stable boy whose fixation on horses becomes a psychological puzzle to psychiatrist Martin Dysart (played by Harry Potter alum Richard Griffiths). Also pictured is Joanna Christie, who plays Jill Mason and was reportedly Radcliffe's own first pick in casting. Think they have chemistry? Take a look!
