Does Daniel Radcliffe have a new side career as a big city dog walker? Or did he get some new (or a dozen) pets?

The British thesp, who most recently was on Broadway in The Cripple of Inishmaan, was spotted walking eight dogs of varying sizes and breeds in New York City's Bryant Park, their leashes clipped around his special dog-walking belt so his hand was free to take a drag on a cigarette.

But there was, of course, a method to this madness.

Radcliffe was shooting a scene for Judd Apatow's latest directorial effort, Trainwreck. The comedy was written by Amy Schumer and also stars Tilda SwintonBrie LarsonBill Hader and Marisa Tomei.

"We don't know what Daniel Radcliffe is doing with @JuddApatow, but we like it," Apatow retweeted a sentiment posted by Pop Sugar.

Radcliffe fan site posted more pics of the erstwhile Harry Potter star shooting his apparent cameo, though the director played coy when asked about it on Twitter, writing, "Not true! He was just walking his dogs."

Who knows what Apatow is doing with him, indeed! But we can't wait to find out what they have in store.
