Potter Cast Breaking Through by Lip Syncing in Music Videos
“Continuing the recent trend of big name celebrities in music videos, the visuals for Slow Club’s “Beginners” features a sweaty and disheveled Daniel Radcliffe making his way though an empty pub while mouthing the lyrics and jumping on tables. In case you didn’t know, Radcliffe struggled with alcoholism during and after the filming of the Harry Potter series, and the song & video work in harmony to paint the picture of an addict battling his personal demons.” - itsthebino
Radcliffe, along with co-star Rupert Grint have recently appeared in music videos displaying their darker more humanistic (less magical) sides in an attempt to shake themselves loose of the Harry Potter anvil. Radcliffe, taking long and fast strides out of his magical role as soon as the last film went to print starred in “The Woman in Black” and is currently in another 2 if not 3 films in production this year.
Trying very hard to wear the Radcliffe brand instead of letting the Potter brand wear him both Radcliffe and Grint are fighting and clawing to at a chance of promising careers post Potter.
