When a photograph showing former Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe shows up with the actor sprouting a pair of devil-like horns on the top of his brow, a sensationalistic headline can't be very far behind.

The first image showing Radcliffe in his new movie Horns was published today. In the horror film Daniel is playing Ignatious "Ig" Parrish, a 26-year-old small town man who wakes up the morning after drinking to find horns beginning to sprout from his forehead. Shortly thereafter Ig finds himself accused of the rape and murder of his girlfriend. With everyone in town horrified that Ig is somehow turning into the devil incarnate, it's up to him to uncover the mystery behind the violent killing of his beloved and the reason why the horns are growing out of his body.

And there's one other thing: Ig's horns are also giving him the supernatural ability to make people tell him the absolute truth -- and to also give into their darkest emotions.

Horns is based on the same novel by Joe Hill, son of horror writer Stephen King (proving that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.) The movie is being directed by Alexandre Aja (Piranha 3D) and also stars Juno Temple, Joe Anderson, Kelli Garner, Max Minghella and James Remar.
