Daniel Radcliffe plays dead at 'Swiss Army Man' premiere

Daniel Radcliffe

Actor Daniel Radcliffe played dead on the red carpet at the Moscow International Film Festival premiere of his film “Swiss Army Man”.

Radcliffe wore a full navy blue suit and patterned dress shirt for the red carpet event, but instead of posing for photographs, he got into character and simply lay down on the ground looking pale and dead, reports usmagazine.com.

In the film, which also stars Paul Dano as a suicidal man, Radcliffe plays a corpse that Dano rides across the ocean like a Jet Ski. But rather than being propelled by an engine, the corpse is mobilised by the Harry Potter star's flatulence.

The film premiered to mixed reviews at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, with an eyewitness saying that the audience had no qualms about expressing their distaste.

“Many people walked out during the show. At least 25 percent of the theatre,” the eyewitness said.
