Dan Radcliffe's next project
The Harry Potter star will not only be playing a role in December Boys - he has now signed on to guest appear in the second series of BBC's comedy show "Extras".
But that´s not all Daniel is going to do- he is to voice a Miami gangster in a new computer game based on the Al Pacino movie Scarface. He told this week's Nuts magazine: 'I'm doing one of those voices that comes up whenever people get killed or something.

'Perhaps I shouldn't have told you that. I think it may be top secret. But I'm pretty excited about it. It should be pretty impressive.'
Other actors taking part in the game - due out in February - include Steven Bauer, who played Manny Ray in the original film, Michael York and American comic Jay Mohr.
