You know it's a slow news week when one story involves a potential sex change operation and the other one involves a beloved child movie star disrobing on stage.

But alas, such as it is this week.

Earlier this year, Harry Potter himself Daniel Radcliffe made headlines when he starred in a London production of Equus. The play about a stableboy with an unnatural attraction to horses featured a completely naked Daniel Radcliffe in a role that shocked his mostly younger fan base.

Well, Reuters is reporting that Equus and Daniel are contemplating a run on Broadway next year. Daniel shared his concerns about a possible New York run.

"I would be very nervous because I think that [the audiences are] even more discerning than in London. But I know we have a good show, it was a good show when we did it in London and hopefully if we do it again it will still be that good. It has to be better."

Hopefully, the news starts to pick up around here next week.
