Daniel Radcliffe rides NYC bus with his corpse for Swiss Army Man
Seriously, be prepared for some of the most bizarre selfies of all time
Oh, the delightful time the promotional campaign for Swiss Army Man is having.
Following on from the website's launch, which saw users gifted with the ability to toss around Daniel Radcliffe's corpse to their neverending delight, the film's distributor A24 has now outdone itself in style.
Because, when else will you get the chance to boast about Daniel Radcliffe's latest role being a farting corpse with an erection, in a movie so filled with farts and erections that it prompted audience walkouts at its premiere?
And so, Daniel Radcliffe himself took to a double-decker bus tour of NYC alongside the very same corpse mannequin used in the film (via Inverse); taking questions from journalists and, more importantly, posing side-by-side with his own corpse for some of the weirdest selfies of all time.
"I love that it's this perverse and mad," Radcliffe had previously said about the role. "It's exciting, to be honest, using farts for other than comedy, like using them for plot and emotion and making some people super uncomfortable. There is something wonderful about it."
Swiss Army Man stars Paul Dano as a young man stranded on a deserted island, about to end it all before he spots a flatulent corpse (Radcliffe) lying on the beach, utilising his gas to propel himself to the mainland before embarking on an adventure through the wilderness with his newfound companion.
The film hits US cinemas 1 July, with a UK release date yet to be announced.
