Daniel Radcliffe trades in a wand for a joystick in 'The Gamechangers' trailer




A bearded Daniel Radcliffe stars as the creator of one of the most polarizing video games that was at the center of a great morality battle between Americans and Brits: Grand Theft Auto.

The BBC movie, The Gamechangers, tells how Radcliffe's Sam Houser created the infamous video game and how he came to clash with anti-gaming activist and attorney Jack Thompson (Bill Paxton). So think Social Network if we were fighting for our right to maim people with virtual cars instead of copyright.

It may be a BBC TV movie, but The Gamechangers looks, dare we say it, pretty rad.
