Daniel Radcliffe is continuing in his journey to move as far away from Harry Potter as possible with huge success.

New film Guns Akimbo might be his wildest film yet – an action comedy in which he plays a video game developer who discovers he’s a participant in a death match that’s being live streamed on te internet.

His character wakes up with a pair of guns bolted to his hands and is forced to kill his way out.

The film’s official synopsis reads: “Director Jason Lei Howden (Deathgasm) foretells of a future that may soon await us: drone-captured live feeds, UFC-like competitions pushed to an extreme, and online streaming platforms used for gladiatorial entertainment all around the world. As Miles navigates the underworld of Skizm, the stakes — and the ratings — have never been higher.”

Guns Akimbo also stars Samara Weaving and Ned Dennehy.

Ever since completing the Harry Potter films, Radcliffe has made some interesting career choices and appeared in a variety of unique indies.

Films he’s starred in include Horns, Swiss Army Man and Imperium.
