Once who wooed us by just showing his wand as a wizard in the Harry Potter franchise, Daniel Radcliffe, wanted to make an impact on his fans in a different way. And what can be a better way to break a certain image? Well, by trying to shake off his clothes altogether. Onscreen nudity has become a thing in Hollywood despite the gender biases, but there have been many actors who have spoken against it from time to time. The actor once stood firm on his ground and said no to these scenes.
In 2013, Radcliffe showed most of his body parts back-to-back in three films, Horns, The F Word, and Kill Your Darlings. So, when there was a slight chance of a n*de scene in his second series, A Young Doctor’s Notebook, he strictly said no to it. Scroll ahead and read to know more about it.
Why Daniel Radcliffe Turned Down N*de Scenes After Getting Naked For Three Films?
In A Young Doctor’s Notebook, Daniel Radcliffe stars alongside Mad Men’s Jon Hamm. During the first series, they got in a bath together, although they were not naked at that time, which led to much disappointment among the fans. However, in 2013, the Harry Potter actor was seen naked in three back-to-back films, which made him frustrated and question his choices.

So, during the filming of the second series, the actor expressed his point of view on getting naked. He said, “I think there was a discussion about possible nudity for one scene, and I think my comment was, ‘I got naked in three films last year, please can I not?'” The actor further added, “At some point, everyone’s going to start assuming I’m an exhibitionist,” via The Guardian.
But this is the same actor who once said he has no issues in doing “such scenes” when the director of Kill Your Darlings asked him to get naked in the movie to portray the character’s sexuality. During a conversation with Vulture, the director, John Krokidas, shared his interaction with Daniel and said, “His only question was, ‘Just so I know, how naked do you want me to be — movie-naked or Equus-naked?’ I said, ‘I hate when people block s*x scenes in order to play hide-the-genitalia — that feels so forced. So let’s just block it, and if it falls into frame, we’ll shoot it’.” For those who don’t know, in Kill Your Darlings, Radcliffe played Allen Ginsberg, one of the most popular gay artists of the 20th century.
In 2009, Daniel Radcliffe got a huge amount of attention when he went full frontal n*de in Equus on Broadway. Many media portals and critics covered the story, and the actor had hit headlines. Well, let us know what you think about Dan’s firm thoughts on n*de scenes.
