Daniel Radcliffe cast to be "Ig" in upcoming Horns movie
I didnt even know that Joe Hills book was to become a movie. Now that i know that im friggin stoked. Im not sold on Radcliffe for this role though. Reading the book i never pictured someone like him as the character. Although he seems to have a dark presence and the age seems about the same as in the book. Not saying it wont be good, it just might take a while to get used to him in this role. Wonder who will take the role of Lee and Merrin. As long as it stays true to the book i think itll be great.
Anyone have any more info on this......

Daniel Radcliffe to play "Ig" Perrish in Horns
*grumble grumble*
I finally got around to reading Joe Hill's Horns and I really really enjoyed it. Hill's writing is similar to his father's in that he writes not only horror but weaves tales that include very intricate, believable, and colorful characters (for better or for worse). I really enjoyed Horns and fell in love with its protagonist Ig... Which is why THIS image of a colorful Radcliffe with King's Richard Faire-esque Horns just makes me gag.  He looks like Twilight with poorly-done Pan horns. sigh. Thoughts? Reactions? I actually don't have much of an issue with Radcliffe; I thought he was great in Woman in Black... But the makeup and his outfit is just killing me here. ACESHOWBIZ article: http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00055754.html CinemaBlend.com article: http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Horns...-Ig-34405.html IMDB Page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1528071/ Director is Alexandre Aja, which I think could be good or bad... High Tension was well-directed, though the ending was awful... And Piranha was a blast. However, he also did Mirrors and P2... Guess we'll see which direction this one goes in...

I totally agree - I really liked Horns, but I'm not sure how it will successfully translate into film, especially since a good portion of the book is inner dialogue. Plus the story is so rich and character-driven as it goes back and forth in time - Realistically to fit that into 90 minutes, they will probably need to cut a lot of that out, and I really enjoyed the flashbacks as an interesting counterbalance to the main story line. Speaking of flashbacks, I think that they're hard to do successfully in film and considering that 1/2 of the movie is made of flashbacks, that's another difficulty to overcome.
I think that Heart-Shaped Box would make a great film - Straight-forward and a quality creepy ghost story.
