Daniel Radcliffe has discussed his sex scene in his latest film Kill Your Darlings.
The Harry Potter actor plays poet Allen Ginsberg in the film, while Dane DeHaan plays his lover.
Kill Your DarlingsHe said to Total Film: "I felt like I was breaking new ground.
"Most actors grow up doing a lot of small movies and then get something big, but I started on the biggest film in the world. So it's an experience that I haven't had. I'm sure some people will be slightly… err… startled by the gay sex scene though."
He added: "It's actually not graphic. You don't actually see anything. What's graphic is the emotion of the scene. It's a very vulnerable, slightly afraid moment. It's beautiful and tender as a consequence of that."
The film focuses on Ginsberg's life before he was famous, following him through college as he experiments with sex, drugs and poetry.
Kill Your Darlings opens in the UK on December 6, 2013. Watch a trailer for the movie below:
