Daniel Radcliffe plays a corpse in his new movie - and he's dragging his body double around to promote the film

While Radcliffe is great at playing an immobile corpse, having a double is useful.

For example, the corpse gets dragged around a lot.

 

Paul Dano plays Hank, who is alive in the movie.

 

He gets stranded on the island and is on the verge of committing suicide.

 

Then he finds Manny.

 

Hank and Manny become friends.

 

They try to get home together.

 

Manny has been traveling all around the country to promote the film.

 

He's gone from coast to coast.

 

Radcliffe has been very selective about the films he's done since 'Harry Potter' ended.

 

"When you read a script that is this f---ing original and out there and special, it stands out a mile," Radcliffe said about the movie.

He has picked an eclectic mix of roles since acting as Harry Potter.

 

Before playing a corpse, he's also played Allen Ginsberg, in "Kill Your Darlings," and a human who slowly transforms into a magical demon, in "Horns."

 

But playing a corpse is definitely his strangest role yet.
