I am, as per usual, running way behind on my email so someone else may have 
already responded to this, but I will do so nonetheless. I think you are a 
little confused here. Of the actors cast as the main Trio, Daniel was the only one 
with prior acting experience. He had already appeared in the British 
mini-series David Copperfield and the movie The Tailor of Panama. He has wanted to be 
an actor from a very young age; something his parents weren't particularly 
thrilled about. As I have said more than once on the movie list, I am very much 
opposed to his choice of Equus, and the backlash has already started. He has 
plenty of time to prove his acting mettle so I find his choice of this play, 
still being a minor, disturbing.
