In what can only be interpreted as an attempt to diversify his acting portfolio, Daniel Radcliffe will star in a made-for-television movie for British network ITV. The actor, whom I will forever identify as Harry Potter, will play the son of real-life author Rudyard Kipling ("The Jungle Book", "Gunga Din").Called My Boy Jack, the television movie is about John Kipling's death in World War I during the Battle of Loos. After his son's death, Kipling wrote "If any question why we died/Tell them, because our fathers lied". Makers of the television movie say the WWI storyline will have present-day applications to the Iraq war.
