Sex AND Drugs in the New Harry Potter Flick?
Filed under: Anglophilia > Drugs > Film Flickers > Daniel Radcliffe > Harry Potter
We love it when actors yap when their handlers aren't around!
Harry Potter himself, actor Daniel Radcliffe, says there's sex and drug references in the new, upcoming Harry Potter flick.
The mommys and daddys aren't going to like that, Daniel!
The wizard said in an interview, "There is a fair amount of sexual energy and there are some drug parallels. We have a couple of what David Yates, the director calls our 'Trainspotting moments'."
For those of you who haven't seen Trainspotting — it's an edgy, drug-fueld movie about heroin junkies in Scotland.
Not exactly a kids' film!
Warner Bros. is breaking some new ground. They've made a Trainspotting for kids!

YAY!
not 1st
This was already on the Huffington Post
I LOVE THIS
FIRST!
first
hahahah good it's about time they grew up
12th
hopefully the wizard shoves a wand up Harrys ass ..You would like that Perez wouldnt you
First?! And sex + drugs = NOT HP!
this is ridicolous can they make one movie without sex & drugs? espically when the audience is mostly children..this is why theres 16 years olds getting pregant.
Hahahaha.
Sounds exciting! (first)
nice:P
GET A LIFE YOU SPAMMING 1 SPOT….
Re: maris –
yeah, hp=teen pregnancies
I still wanna see the movie
He's probably hinting at the part where Ron accidently takes some love potion which makes him go all crazy and try to fuck everything that moves.
.
Sounds like a typical teenager, actually.
Well if peaple have actually READ the books, you'll find out that Harry Potter gets more serious and more "adult content" every book , so for us dedicated fans its not someting to be surprised about, its old new
well the harry potter series isn't necessarily a kids series…as the characters grew older and more mature so did the books…you can't expect 16 year old kids not to know about drugs and sex and all that and throughout the whole series there are certain inuendos
WOOH! Awesome! I'd see the movies anyways but this will just make it better in my opinion. There's quite alot of innuendo in the books that have previously been ignored, and it's done in a way that adult readers get it and have a good chuckle, and it goes over kids' heads. Any good children's film should, because obviously someone has to take the kids to see it, and why shouldn't they be able to enjoy it as well? Brilliant move, I think!
IS HE BAREFOOT ???? WOULD LOVE TO LICK HIS FEET…
Thanks for the pop culture tidbit on the movie Trainspotting…you are such a fuckin douche….
I think EVERY kid should see Trainspotting…then see if they would like to try Heroin.
Go back to Cuba and get boned by a Fidel Castro cigar fag!
Re: Teres – Exactly.
These aren't "little kids" books. Not since the first or second book has it been okay (in my opinion) to have little kids watching it. It's adult and very dark.
I think it's about time that they grew up, but I hope that the movies stay true to the book and don't go completely drug crazed and sexed up, that would ruin the books, and its just not needed.
Your the worst writer Mario. Spin Spin SPin a big bunch of nothing and old news. Stolen news from another site. Go back to Cuba or whereever you came from. Your a joke
When a noun ends in Y, you pluralize it with IES. So it's Mommies and Daddies — you "English as a Second Language" HACK!

Well the books do get more grown up as they should, it lends its self well to how as children when you start to grow up the world changes and you lose your innocence. Oh and as a side note Little Danny is Really Yummy!
It's all part of growing up…no matter where you live. I see it on t.v all day long.
He is so freaking hot!
find out what you are writing about before you post it! dumbledore drinks poison and goes loopy due to that. GET OVER IT!
about damn time! Those films are freaking boring! But I'd rather not see any of those fugly redheads in those situations. BLEH.
He's lying, probably just wants people to watch the movie
Nice harry's gonna nail ginny, and smoke some crack with Dumbledore
Drug 'parallels' do not mean actual drugs…think more along the lines of 'trips' in the Simpsons and things like that. It's not like Hermione is going to shoot up in the Forbidden Forest. There are some 'potions' in this book that cause certain effects, and could be comparable to drugs, but I think it's pretty damn obvious it's not a glorification or a tale of drug abuse a la Trainspotting. Get a grip.
SEX= Harry And Ginny
Drugs= Wine/firewisky, Felix felicis
More upskirt from what's her name!!!
I used to like the potter movies, but Radcliff is a fucking loser douche bag fuck now!!!! He produces garbage!!!!! He made a wannebe play about a guy that likes to fuck his horse!!!! That ended any Radcliff support I had!! A disgusting excuse for a human that has to much money to young in life and doesnt support helping his fellow humans!!
I'm king of the world…
LOL oh how i love harry potter.
oh get over it, who cares. it's not like the references are blatant, they're PARALLELS

Perez come on now.. what a waste of time.. I would like it back please.
The kids are basically in high school so of course there is gonna be some sexual energy! There sure was when I was that age. Not to mention that Harry Potter has just as strong a following among adults as with kids and as a result the movies (and books) weren't made to be overly "Kiddie".
"They've made a Trainspotting for kids!" - Keep on making claims you know nothing about, your better for it trust me!
Re: maris –
You're stupid. That's all I can say.
That because as the Harry Potter series progressed, the content did too. The later books aren't children's books, so why make it a children's movie?
If you read the books you would have already known this, they are just hyping it up
I wonder if the drug reference is Ron drinking the love potion that makes him super horny…or maybe when Dumbledore drinks the potion from the cave that makes him go insane.
.
.
But the teens in the books have been "doing it" for a little while now. Harry and Cho…then Harry and Ginny…Ron and Lavender..then Ron and Hermione. I think it's hot!! Oh and don't forget Ginny and Dean.
.
.
And you do know that Dumbledore is gay right? JK Rowling wrote him as a gay man, although it's very tough to pick up on it unless you know. But he has a "partner" and everything. It will be in the last movie that you will see him.
Oh and…

SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE!!!!!!
Hmmm, most curious! I didn't recall reading anything about drugs and sex in Deathly Hallows? Well, unless you count the sex between Harry and Ginny to get James, Albus, and Lily?
That's so stupid, the Harry Potter books made no references to drugs in the entire series. They're just doing it to seem more adult, when they don't need too because the story line gets more serious. Idiots.
Ummm… they've completely destroyed what was left of the Potter books, then. Oh well, the movies have sucked ass from the start anyway.
oh my god,im so going to see that movie..i mean sex & drugs?can it get any better?
oh,and i LOVE Trainspotting,great movie,great movie!
Sexual ENERGY people…not SEX. Jeez. Stop freaking out people.

Umm, have you realized how old the kids are now Perez? Of course there's going to be some sexual energy, that's what happens with kids at their age. And he said drug parallels, it's not like it shows Harry Potter hitting a fuckin' crack pipe.

You always make things out to be bigger than they really are. You're such an idiot and I can't wait for your 15 minutes to be up.
PEOPLE! THE "DRUGS" HE'S REFFERING TO ARE A LOVE POTION AND A POTION MAKES YOU LUCKY. THE LUCKY POTION IS ILLEGAL IN SPORTS AND CONTESTS, AND REALLY SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN MORE THAN A FEW TIMES WITHOUT NEGATIVE SIDE EFFECTS. THAT'S WHAT HE'S REFFERING TO.
THE SEX IS THE "SEXUAL" TENSION OR CHEMISTRY BETWEEN DIFFERENT PEOPLE. SUCH AS LAVENDER AND RON, HERMIONE AND RON, AND HARRY AND GINNY.
THE ONLY THING DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS MOVIE IS THE FACT THAT IT'S HEAVILY POTIONS INFLUENCED AND LOVE INTEREST INFLUENCED.
THIS BOOK ISN'T EVEN THAT DARK; VOLDEMORT ISN'T IN IT ONCE LOL.
EXCUSE THE CAPS, I'M ONLY DOING THIS TO CLEAR IT UP TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE LIKE "THIS ISN'T FOR CHILDREN; THEY'RE TOO ADULT LIKE AND SCARY".
The last two HP films were not for children…way too dark and violent. But then again no one ever said HP was for children. As Harry grew up in the series so too did the subject matter. I just hope they make a good film and not try to make it nice for families.
sex
Dude, that article is dated from February! So much for breaking news.
I love how deceiving 'headlines' are. Yes, the potions effect people in certain ways, like drugs. Sexual? Duh! There's a bunch of snogging going on!
I LOVE HARRY POTTER I LOVE HARRY POTTER I LOVE HARRY POTTER
I LOVE HARRY POTTER I LOVE HARRY POTTER I LOVE HARRY POTTER
AND I WANT TO SEE THAT MOVIE NOW
ill be masterbating throughout the whole movie
NICE! finalllllyy
"There is a fair amount of sexual energy and there are some drug parallels. We have a couple of what David Yates, the director calls our 'Trainspotting moments'."
YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
I fucking love Harry Potter and I am not ashamed to say it! I'm so excited for it to come out in November!

nice.
For anyone who has read the book, it is all in there. It is just very subtle, you just really have to understand it. Though it might be a bit more in your face in the movie
I think this is fine- there are references similar to that in the books… I mean, you figure the characters are like sixteen in the sixth movie, so it's not wierd or anything. As the plot progresses so does the need for more mature themes to keep it realistic. It's only natural they'd do so in the movie.
I don't know why but this particular Perezified image is one of the funniest interventions I have seen on this site.
Did you even READ Half-Blood Prince? It's NOT for kids!
Re: maris – The audience isn't mostly children. The HP movies are very dark as they go along and I would think that adults are the majority that watch the movies
