his debut feature, will feature Daniel Radcliffe in the lead role in his adaptation of reporter Jake Adelstein’s memoir, Tokyo Vice, about Japanese organized crime.

“It’s on the fast-track,” Mandler says. “We’re just waiting on Daniel’s dates--that will either go top of the summer, or end of the summer, but we are deep into the creative process. The book’s incredible. This guy’s experience and what he went through, and how he challenged these guys and used the pen instead of the sword to beat them at their own game and live through it.”

So depending on Dan's Gold schedule, they'll start this right after.

Sounds exciting. Dan can use his intelligence to pull off this character.

I still haven't read the book. I know I will eventually but the whole crime/mob drama doesn't excite me as much as it maybe should.

I won't even bother what the book. It'll be better that way b/c I won't compare the movie to it.

I find that it is better sometimes not reading the book first.

Music Video Auteur Anthony Mandler Respects Miley Cyrus’ “Path” Even If It's “A Little Distasteful and Adolescent” | Vanity Fair

Quote:
Tell me about Tokyo Vice, your upcoming directorial debut, and how you landed on the project.

When the script was done, I read it and loved it. I really gravitate toward characters and worlds that kind of sit on the cusp of change: crossroads, moments and decisions, the cause and effect of what happens in those moments. [Jake Adelstein’s] book really grabbed me and brought me into this incredible world that I’ve always been fascinated with. Daniel Radcliffe was kind of sniffing around it, and I went and sat with him. I loved his passion, and his take, and his true dedication in his own career to separating himself from Mr. [Harry] Potter, and exploring characters that are completely different.

He’s made some really interesting choices since the Harry Potter franchise ended.

He’s very smart and very well-read. Really kind of dark and embroiled in his emotions. You can see he’s potentially a recluse. A very famous, wealthy recluse who loves to read. I think we’re going to see a lot more from him. I don’t think he’s going to fall to the classic [path] of Child Actor Who Can’t Get To The Next Level.

I like that Dan takes chances with first time directors

He should play Howard Hughes some day.

I agree that I like he picks first time directors.

I love how he loves to read.

Yeah I don't see him that way at all. Just because he's not into partying like the Hollywood young celebrities he's use to dealing with in his music videos doesn't mean Dan will be a reclusive loner. So what, he likes to read. How is that anti social?

I guess the director doesn't understand that there are different ways for a person to enjoy him/herself? Dan can be very social in a setting that is quieter than a drug fueled party.

I think his definition of a reclusive loner is different? I don't think Dan would ever really.
