DANIEL RADCLIFFE IS 'RICHEST TEENAGER'

Daniel Radcliffe In Equus

Daniel Radcliffe is to become the richest teenager in Britain in July - when he gains access to his $40 million fortune.The 'Harry Potter' star will get his hands on the massive sum - amassed from his film roles and merchandising - when he turns 18 on July 23. Daniel hopes his new wealthy status won't attract gold-diggers. He said: "I've not got a girlfriend at the moment. Somebody said, 'Do you worry girls are just giving you attention because of who you are?' I was like, 'I'm 17, it's wonderful.' "Daniel - who later this month will take to the stage in London's West End in a revival of Peter Shaffer's play 'Equus' - was paid $120,000 for his first outing as the boy wizard in 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone'. Daniel's West End debut is expected to cause controversy, as he appears nude on stage and his character has a sexual fascination with horses.

HARRY POTTER DANIEL RADCLIFFE NUDE

Daniel Radcliffe

This is Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe as you’ve never seen him before. In a set of provocative new photos to promote a play in which he stars, the boy wizard shows that he’s all grown up. Radcliffe, 17, appears bare-chested with a white stallion and with co-star Joanna Christie in photos promoting Equus, opening in London’s West End on Feb. 27.

The British actor, who was 11 when he made his first Harry Potter movie, appears completely naked in the play, written by Anthony Shaffer. Radcliffe plays a stable boy in the care of a psychiatrist for his obsession with harming horses. Producer David Pugh told the British press that Radcliffe had no hesitation in shedding his clothes. “We had never seen him with his clothes off before. We all went ‘Wow!’” But not everyone is thrilled with Radcliffe’s racy role. According to the Daily Mail, some parents have threatened to keep their children away from the star’s next movie, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. After his run in Equus, which has already raked in more than $2.3 million in advance sales, Radcliffe will make one more Potter film, The Half-Blood Prince.
