    For bibliophiles, it doesn't get much bigger than this: a reading by J.K. Rowling, Stephen King and John Irving.

(CBS/AP)  Underneath his wizard's outfit, Harry Potter is hiding a six-pack.

Daniel Radcliffe's been working out, getting ready for his nude scenes in the play "Equus" in London. He's posed without his shirt and glasses for a series of sexy shots to plug the show that opens Feb. 27. Previews of the play begin Feb. 16.

The play's producer tells People magazine that he's "gobsmacked at how suddenly he turned into this swan."

Photos on the play's Web site show the actor posing shirtless with a white horse and with his shirtless female costar.

Radcliffe will star as a stable boy in the play which originally opened at the London National Theater in 1973.

"It is an extraordinary play, and he's very much looking forward to the role," Radcliffe's rep, Vanessa Davies, told The Associated Press in July. "He is maturing as an actor and beginning to take on new and challenging roles."

Most recently Radcliffe appeared as an over-sexed version of himself in Ricky Gervais' HBO comedy "Extras."
