Adolescent fantasy worlds nearly collided last night when Daniel Radcliffe aka Mr. Harry Potter himself and High School Musical’s Zac Efron attended back-to-back TIFF 2013 parties at Grey Goose Soho House. Radcliffe was there first to celebrate Horns, his Kafka-esque new film about a young man who starts growing horns after his girlfriend’s death; earlier in the day the star hammed it up on the red carpet in a devil headband. Grey Goose cocktails with festival-ready names like Torontini were passed around as Radcliffe and his beautiful blonde co-star Juno Temple posed for chummy photos by the fireplace before heading out into the night.
Efron arrived shortly after, looking dapper as ever in a slim-cut grey suit. The Disney heartthrob held court on a plush leather sofa in one corner with his Parkland co-stars Tom Welling, Paul Giamatti and Colin Hanks, the spitting image of his father Tom (seriously, it was like watching Big). It was clearly boys’ night out as the posse chatted and chowed down on quinoa salad together. Hanks was easiest to spot as he worked the room, basically towering over his costars who, like most actors, were all much smaller in real life.

12 Years a Slave premiered last night at TIFF 2013 and it already has people buzzing about Oscar noms. On the red carpet outside the Princess of Wales theatre, director Steve McQueen chummily posed for photos with star Chiwetel Ejiofor, whilst Michael Fassbender triggered many a sigh in a navy pin dot two-piece Tom Ford suit. Meanwhile, alt-hunk of the moment Benedict Cumberbatch posed with Paul Giamatti in matchy-match relaxed suits with unbuttoned shirts.

TIFF partysphere: Jon Hamm and Gerard Butler amp up the stud-factor at George Stroumboulopoulos’ Hazelton Hotel bash
Photography by JJ Thompson Getting in and around Friday night’s George Stroumboulopoulos Hazelton Hotel Takeover was not an easy feat, to say the least. That, however, didn’t make it any less fun. Rolling up to the hotel in my for-one-night-only Cadillac Escalade—complete with suited-up driver and white TIFF logos emblazoned on the side—throngs of onlookers peered through the windows to see who we were and gave us panic attacks in the meantime. We were not Keira, as it turned out. Later, inside, friend, office mate and Toronto Life associate online editor Kevin Naulls has the misfortune of falling with a wine glass. We won’t share the bloody details. The patio was much easier to navigate, and we spotted the Strombo himself greeting Gerard Butler, Paul Giamatti, and a one Jon Hamm looking hotter than ever, if that’s even possible.
