"Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe says he enjoys playing an "anti-hero", who is disliked in his upcoming fantasy-horror `Horns`.

The 24-year-old star has confessed he enjoyed taking on a completely different role in the upcoming fantasy-horror, which is based on the novel of the same name by cult Canadian author Joe Hill.

"It's a very, very different type of part than anything I've done before. He's a great character. It's nice to play a real sort of anti-hero who does a few genuinely nasty things to people,` contactmusic.com quoted Radcliffe as saying.
