Daniel Radcliffe opens up in the November issue of Flaunt about what is was like to play a gay man in the upcoming Allen Ginsberg movie, Kill Your Darlings.
The actor, who portrays Ginsberg as he falls in love with Lucien Carr (Dane DeHaan), tells the magazine, “I don’t think there’s any difference between how one falls in love. People express love differently, person to person, but it’s not gender or sexuality related. The only difference it made was obviously the actual sex scene, of course.”
In the movie, Radlcliffe loses his virginity to a stranger after being rejected by Carr.
Asked about the sex scene, the Harry Potter star shares, “I was talked through it by the director [John Krokidas]. He would be telling me what I would be feeling in each take. Basically, gay sex, especially for the first time, is really f**king painful.”
“And [Krokidas] said that he had never seen that portrayed accurately on film before. He wanted it to look like an authentic loss of virginity,” adds Radcliffe.
Kill Your Darlings hits theaters on October 18.
