Jamie Bell, star of the hit British flick, Billy Elliott, has just signed on to replace Daniel Radcliffe in the controversial theatre production, Equus.
The 21-year-old star, who’s kept his life private since his early celebrity, will take over from Radcliffe after his time is up, and is unconcerned about the amount of publicity accepting the role could give him.
A source said: “Jamie is really excited about taking over and isn’t at all daunted about stripping off.”
Apparently, Orlando Bloom was also approached for the take-over, but turned the role down.
