As well as the media frenzy painting him as the murderer, Ig also realises that the horns give him incredibly persuasive powers.A mix of black comedy and gory horror, Horns also features Juno Temple and Max Minghella, and is directed by celebrated horror director Alexandre Aja.

Daniel found fame at the age of ten when he was cast as the titular character in the Harry Potter franchise. He recently addressed the possibility of returning to the big screen as his spectacle-wearing alter ego when author J.K Rowling shared a short, spin-off story on the Pottermore website. "My inclination is to say 'no' because I don't think it's even a hypothetical at the moment," he said via satellite link at the Television Critics Association's Summer Press Tour.
