Radcliffe's best movies including Swiss Army Man and Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. He was also a series regular in the anthology comedy series Miracle Workers and played Charley Kringas in the Broadway revival of the Stephen Sondheim musical Merrily We Roll Along, for which he won a Tony Award.

As per Deadline, Radcliffe will now star in Trust the Man, which revolves around an Army Intelligence officer investigating a mysterious and decorated soldier during the Vietnam War. The investigation takes a dangerous turn as both the investigating officer and the decorated soldier become increasingly obsessed with each other. Lucas Hedges, who received an Academy Award nomination for Manchester by the Sea, has also been cast, while Daisy Jones & the Six's Will Graham will direct.

What This Means For Daniel Radcliffe

He Continues To Take On Unconventional Roles

Radcliffe's post-Harry Potter career continues to expand with his casting in Trust the Man. From playing a farting corpse in Swiss Army Man, Weird Al Yankovic in a satirical music biopic, Radcliffe has been unafraid to take on unconventional roles. He has successfully ensured that he would not be forever typecast as Harry Potter and has now proven himself in a wide range of genres and artistic mediums. That is poised to continue in Trust the Man, which sounds like an atypical Vietnam War story.

Instead of being a traditional Vietnam War movie, Trust the Man seems as though it will primarily focus on a complex and ultimately dark relationship between Radcliffe and Hedges' characters. The Vietnam War is responsible for their circumstances and will undoubtedly influence their mindsets, but the war is only a piece of a thriller exploring the dangers of obsession and loyalty. Being in the military can add further complexities to the sense of duty that the characters have, which they will need to reconcile alongside their personal feelings.
