The formerly cherubic Potter star plays Ginsberg who gets initiated into booze, drugs and gay sex. In one scene a man performs oral sex on Radcliffe’s character while in a library.

“But you know what? We shot the whole scene in maybe an hour and a half so it was incredibly fast-paced.

“I didn’t really have time to stop to think and worry about it.”

It’s not the first time Radcliffe has stepped into more daring roles. At 17 he appeared nude on stage in the play Equus.
