Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter)
While at first, the actor and his parents were reluctant to accept the role, once Daniel became Harry Potter, his life changed forever. Radcliffe basically grew up on the series, spending ten years working on eight films that brought him fame, fortune, and praise from critics. It’s no wonder the actor went on to have a splendid career in the movie scene, starring in a wide variety of roles including lawyer Arthur Kipps in the horror film The Woman in Black, famed beat poet Allen Ginsberg in Kill Your Darlings, Victor Frankenstein’s assistant Igor in the science fiction fantasy Victor Frankenstein, Manny, a sentient corpse in Swiss Army Man, and many more. Radcliffe also dabbled in Broadway, working on musicals such as How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.
