Recent news articles have stated
that Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe is slated to be involved in a new project about the life of photographer Dan Eldon (who was killed in Mogadishu, Somalia in 1993) and we received confirmation on this project earlier this past weekend.
You can read more about Dan here on his official site, created by his family and friends.
Thanks to Page for the confirmation.

That's really neat! I hope that it will be shown in the States when it comes out... pity, we've never gotten to see him in anything besides Potter.

Oh my gosh, Daniel, stop it... Whenever I watch anything you've starred in, I cry at least once. Can;t wait to watch this though - although the things Dan stars in might be tear-jerking, they are brilliant.

I heard Daniel was going to do this film. I'm excited for him because I think this will be an excellent and challenging role for him. I think it's great that Dan is branching out to different projects and I'm excited to see him as a different character than Harry Potter. I think that Daniel Radcliffe, as an actor, is here to stay.

Glad to hear he's taking on a grown-up role, instead of doing some silly teen movie.

That sounds like a great role for Dan. He certainly is a serious actor...no silly roles for him. Have some fun, Dan, you're just a kid!

It seems like a good role, i hope dan can fill in this other dan's shoes. I also hope this movie comes to the US. I still can't find December Boys anywhere, and i would love to see him in another role other then Harry.

Wow seems really interesting.. I like everything that has to do with Mogadisu and what happened back there in 1993, cause i still haven't decided if the USA had the right intervene or not, anyway i am looking forward to this!

He's doing really well in picking his roles. And I think in doing so he will be around long after the last Harry Potter is filmed. Way to go Dan.
