Daniel Jacob Radcliffe
is an English actor who rose to prominence playing the title
character in the Harry Potter film series.
Daniel Radcliffe made his acting debut at age ten in BBC One's
1999 television movie David Copperfield, followed by his film debut
in 2001's The Tailor of Panama. At age eleven
Daniel Radcliffe was cast as the title character in the first
Harry Potter film, and starred in the series for ten years until the
release of the eighth and final film in July 2011.
Daniel Radcliffe also began to branch out to stage acting in
2007, starring in the London and New York productions of the play
Equus and in the 2011 Broadway revival of the musical How to Succeed
in Business Without Really Trying. In addition,
Daniel Radcliffe has starred in 2007's December Boys and the
2012 hit horror film The Woman in Black.
Daniel Radcliffe will play beat poet Allen Ginsberg in 2013
indie film Kill Your Darlings.
Daniel Radcliffe has contributed to many charities, including
Demelza House Children's Hospice and The Trevor Project. Daniel
Radcliffe has also made public service announcements for the latter.
In 2011,
Daniel Radcliffe was awarded the Trevor Project's "Hero Award".
Early life and education
Daniel Radcliffe was born on 23 July 1989 in West London,
England,[1] the only child of Alan George
Daniel Radcliffe, a literary agent, and Marcia Jeannine Gresham
(née Marcia Gresham Jacobson), a casting agent who was involved in
several films for the BBC, including The Inspector Lynley Mysteries
and Walk Away And I Stumble.[2][3] Radcliffe's father, originally
from Northern Ireland, is Protestant.[4] Radcliffe's mother is
Jewish, and her family had come from South Africa, Poland, and
Russia (she was born in South Africa and raised in Westcliff-on-Sea,
Essex).[5][6][7] Daniel Radcliffe was raised without religion.[8]
Daniel Radcliffe first expressed a desire to act at the age of
five,[9] and in December 1999, aged ten,
Daniel Radcliffe made his acting debut in the BBC One's
televised two-part adaptation of the Charles Dickens novel David
Copperfield, portraying the title character as a young boy.[10]
Daniel Radcliffe was educated at two independent schools for
boys:[11] at Sussex House School, a day school in Cadogan Square in
Chelsea in London,[12] followed by the City of London School,[13] a
day school on the North Bank of the River Thames in London's
financial district, known as the City of London.
Following the release of the first Harry Potter movie, attending
school became hard for
Daniel Radcliffe, with some fellow pupils becoming hostile.
Daniel Radcliffe said it was people just trying to "have a crack
at the kid that plays Harry Potter" rather than jealousy.[14] As his
acting career began to consume his schedule,
Daniel Radcliffe continued his education through on-set tutors.
Daniel Radcliffe admitted
Daniel Radcliffe was not very good at school, considered it
useless, and found the work to be "really, really difficult";[11]
however,
Daniel Radcliffe did achieve A grades in the three A-levels that
Daniel Radcliffe sat in 2006, but then decided to take a break
from education and did not go to college or university.[15] Part of
the reason was that Daniel Radcliffe already knew
Daniel Radcliffe wanted to act and write, and that it would be
difficult to have a normal college experience. "The paparazzi,
they’d love it,"
Daniel Radcliffe told Details magazine in 2007. "If there were
any parties going on, they’d be tipped off as to where they
were".[14]
Career
Harry Potter
In 2000 producer David Heyman asked
Daniel Radcliffe to audition for the role of Harry Potter for
the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the
best-selling book by British author J. K. Rowling.[16][17] Rowling
had been searching for an unknown British actor to personify the
character; however, Radcliffe's parents did not want him to audition
for the role, as the contract required shooting all seven films in
Los Angeles, California, and so they did not tell him.[18] The
movie's director Chris Columbus recalled thinking, "This is what I
want. This is Harry Potter", after
Daniel Radcliffe saw a video of the young actor in David
Copperfield.[18] Eight months later, and after several auditions,
Daniel Radcliffe was selected to play the part.[19] Rowling also
endorsed the selection saying, "I don't think Chris Columbus could
have found a better Harry."[20] Radcliffe's parents originally
turned down the offer, as they had been told that it would involve
six films shot in Los Angeles.[21] Warner Bros. instead offered
Daniel Radcliffe a two-movie contract with shooting in the UK
though,[18] when signing up,
Daniel Radcliffe was unsure if Daniel Radcliffe would do any
more pictures.[22]
The release of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (released as
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the United States) took
place in 2001. The story follows Harry, a young boy who learns
Daniel Radcliffe is a wizard and is sent to Hogwarts School of
Witchcraft and Wizardry to begin his education; gaining the help of
friends Ron (Rupert Grint) and Hermione (Emma Watson) along the way.
Daniel Radcliffe received a seven figure salary for the lead
role, but asserted that the fee was "not that important" to him;[23]
his parents chose to invest the money for him.[18] The film broke
records for opening-day sales and opening-weekend takings, becoming
the highest-grossing film of 2001. With a total of US$974 million in
ticket sales, Philosopher's Stone stands as the second most
commercially successful in the series behind Harry Potter and the
Deathly Hallows – Part 2, the final instalment.[24] The adaptation
was met with positive reviews and critics took notice of Daniel
Radcliffe:[25] "Daniel
Radcliffe is the embodiment of every reader's imagination. It is
wonderful to see a young hero who is so scholarly looking and filled
with curiosity and who connects with very real emotions, from solemn
intelligence and the delight of discovery to deep family longing,"
wrote Bob Graham of the San Francisco Chronicle.[26]
A year later
Daniel Radcliffe starred in Harry Potter and the Chamber of
Secrets, the second instalment of the series. Reviewers were
positive about the lead actors' performances but had polarised
opinions on the movie as a whole. Stephen Hunter of the Washington
Post labelled it "big, dull and empty".[27] Observing that Daniel
Radcliffe and his peers had matured, Los Angeles Times's staff
writer Kenneth Turan believed the novel's magic could not be
successfully duplicated in the film.[28] Nonetheless, it still
managed to earn US$878 million, taking the second spot of the
highest-grossing 2002 films worldwide behind The Lord of the Rings:
The Two Towers.[29]
The 2004 release Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was the
third film in the series. While garnering the highest critical
acclaim of the series at that point[25] and grossing US$795.6
million worldwide, the film's performance at the box office ranks
the lowest in the series.[24] Radcliffe's performance was panned by
New York Times journalist A. O. Scott, who wrote that Watson had to
carry him with her performance.[30] Next was Harry Potter and the
Goblet of Fire in 2005. The film set records for a Harry Potter
opening weekend, as well as for a non-May opening weekend in the US
and in the UK.[31] The film eventually grossed US$896 million
worldwide, and the film was the second-highest grossing Harry Potter
film at that point.[32] In a 2005 interview,
Daniel Radcliffe
singled out the humour as being a reason for the movie's creative
success.[33]
Despite the success of the previous three movies, the future of the
franchise was put into question when all three lead actors were
unsure about signing on to continue their roles for the final two
episodes; however, by 2 March 2007
Daniel Radcliffe had signed for the final films, which put an
end to weeks of press "speculation that
Daniel Radcliffe would be denied the role due to his involvement
in Equus".[34]
Daniel Radcliffe reprised his role for the fifth time in Harry
Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), which details Harry's
return to Hogwarts after his encounter with Lord Voldemort in the
previous film. It opened to positive responses from the press;[25]
IGN movie critic Steven Horn found Order of the Phoenix to be one of
"those rare films that exceeds the source material"[35] and Colin
Bertram of New York's Daily News dubbed it the best movie in the
series.[36]
Daniel Radcliffe stated that director David Yates and actress
Imelda Staunton made Order of the Phoenix the "most fun" film in the
series to work on.[37] His performance earned several award
nominations, and
Daniel Radcliffe
received the 2008 National Movie Award for "Best Male
Performance".[38] As his fame and the series continued, Daniel
Radcliffe, Grint and Watson left imprints of their hands, feet, and
wands in front of Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.[39]
In July 2009 Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was released,
the series' sixth instalment. The film did considerably better than
the previous movie, breaking the then-record for biggest midnight US
showings with US$22.2 million at 3,000 theatres,[40] and was the
biggest ever Wednesday-opening in the UK, with US$7.6 million at
1,305 screens.[41] Half-Blood Prince achieved a total of US$933
million ticket sales[24] and was one of the most positively reviewed
of the series among film critics, who praised the film's
"emotionally satisfying" story, direction, cinematography, visuals
and music.[42][43][44]
Daniel Radcliffe received nominations for "Best Male
Performance" and "Global Superstar" at the 2010 MTV Movie
Awards.[45]
For financial and scripting reasons the last book was divided into
two films, shot back to back,[46][47] which drew criticism from the
series' fanbase.
Daniel Radcliffe defended the split, pointing out that it would
have been impossible to properly adapt the final novel into a single
film.[48]
Daniel Radcliffe added that the last movie was going to be
extremely fast-paced with a lot of action, while the first part
would be far more sedate, focusing on character development;
Daniel Radcliffe added that, had they combined them, those
things would not have made it to the final cut.[49] Filming lasted
for a year, concluding in June 2010 and on the last day of shooting,
like most of the cast and crew,
Daniel Radcliffe openly wept.[50] Harry Potter and the Deathly
Hallows – Part 1 (2010) was about Harry, Ron and Hermione leaving
Hogwarts to track down Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes, objects in which
Voldemort has left part of his soul. The film was released in
November and grossed over US$950 million.[24] Its most lucrative
territory was the UK, where it reportedly had the highest-grossing
three-day opening in history; while its earnings of US$205 million,
in 91 markets, made it the highest ever top-grossing non-US opening
for a non-summer picture, and "the fourth-biggest-grossing
international opening ever".[51] The movie received mostly
favourable reviews in the media.[25]
The final film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, was
released worldwide starting on 13 July 2011 in Australia. The film
concerns the battle against Voldemort's followers in Hogwarts, along
with Harry's final climactic duel with Voldemort.
Daniel Radcliffe, along with the film,[25] was critically
acclaimed: Ann Hornaday of The Washington Post asked, "Who could
have predicted that Daniel Radcliffe, Grint and Watson would turn
out to be good actors?";[52] similarly, Rex Reed said: "Frankly, I’m
sorry to see [Daniel Radcliffe] go";[53] while Rolling Stone critic
Peter Travers commented on
Daniel Radcliffe: "Well played, sir."[54] Among those who were
less favourable, Roger Ebert said that
Daniel Radcliffe, Grint and Watson were "upstaged by the
supporting [actors]".[55] The film broke several box office records,
including biggest midnight release,[56] biggest first-day
opening,[56] and biggest opening-weekend.[57] Deathly Hallows – Part
2 is currently the third-highest grossing film in the world, and the
highest-grossing non-James Cameron film, with more than US$1.3
billion worldwide.[58]
Daniel Radcliffe admitted that some people would never be able
to separate him from the character, but also said
Daniel Radcliffe is "proud to be associated with this film
series forever."[59] Despite positive feelings about the movies,
Daniel Radcliffe has no interest in doing more Harry Potter
films. After Rowling hinted about writing an eighth book,
Daniel Radcliffe was asked if
Daniel Radcliffe would do another film to which
Daniel Radcliffe replied: "[It is] very doubtful. I think 10
years is a long time to spend with one character."[60] Despite
devoting so much time to the series, Daniel Radcliffe has asserted
that
Daniel Radcliffe did not miss out on a childhood like other
child actors: "I’ve been given a much better perspective on life by
doing Potter."[61]
2001–2009
Daniel Radcliffe made his film debut in The Tailor of Panama, an
American 2001 film based on John le Carré's 1996 spy novel, and a
moderate commercial success.[24] In 2002
Daniel Radcliffe made his stage debut as a celebrity guest in a
West End theatre production of The Play What I Wrote, directed by
Kenneth Branagh – who also appeared with him in the second Harry
Potter film.[10][62] In 2007
Daniel Radcliffe appeared in the film December Boys, an
Australian family drama about four orphans that was shot in 2005 and
released to theatres in mid-September 2007.[63] Also in 2007, Daniel
Radcliffe co-starred with Carey Mulligan in My Boy Jack, a
television drama film shown on ITV on Remembrance Day. The film
received mostly positive reviews,[64] with several critics praising
Radcliffe's performance as an 18-year-old who goes missing in action
during a battle.[65][66][67]
Daniel Radcliffe stated, "For many people my age, the First
World War is just a topic in a history book. But I've always been
fascinated by the subject and think it's as relevant today as it
ever was."[68]
At age 17, in a bid to show people
Daniel Radcliffe was not a kid any more,[1]
Daniel Radcliffe performed onstage in Peter Shaffer's play
Equus, which had not been revived since its first run in 1973, at
the Gielgud Theatre.[18]
Daniel Radcliffe took on the lead role[62] as Alan Strang, a
stable boy who has an obsession with horses. Advance sales topped
£1.7 million, and the role generated significant pre-opening media
interest, as
Daniel Radcliffe appeared in a nude scene.[18][69] Equus opened
on 27 February 2007 and ran until 9 June 2007.[62] Radcliffe's
performance received positive reviews[70] as critics were impressed
by the nuance and depth of his against-type role.[71] Charles
Spencer of The Daily Telegraph wrote that
Daniel Radcliffe "displays a dramatic power and an electrifying
stage presence that marks a tremendous leap forward." Daniel
Radcliffe added: "I never thought I would find the diminutive (but
perfectly formed)
Daniel Radcliffe a sinister figure, but as Alan Strang ... there
are moments when
Daniel Radcliffe seems genuinely scary in his rage and
confusion."[72] The production then transferred to Broadway in
September 2008, with
Daniel Radcliffe
still in the lead role.[73][74]
Daniel Radcliffe stated Daniel Radcliffe was nervous about
repeating the role on Broadway because
Daniel Radcliffe considered American audiences more discerning
than those in London.[75] Radcliffe's performance was nominated for
a Drama Desk Award.[76]
2010–present
After voicing a character in an episode of the animated television
series The Simpsons in late 2010,[77]
Daniel Radcliffe debuted as J. Pierrepont Finch in the 2011
Broadway revival How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, a
role previously held by Broadway veterans Robert Morse and Matthew
Broderick.[78] Other cast members included John Larroquette, Rose
Hemingway and Mary Faber.[79] Both the actor and production received
favourable reviews,[80] with USA Today commenting: "Daniel
Radcliffe ultimately succeeds not by overshadowing his fellow
cast members, but by working in conscientious harmony with them –
and having a blast in the process."[81] Radcliffe's performance in
the show earned him Drama Desk Award, Drama League Award and Outer
Critics Circle Award nominations.[82][83][84] The production itself
later received nine Tony Award nominations.[85]
Daniel Radcliffe left the show on 1 January 2012.[86]
His first post-Harry Potter project was the 2012 horror film The
Woman in Black, adapted from the 1983 novel by Susan Hill. The film
was released on 3 February 2012 in the United States and Canada, and
was released on 10 February in the UK.
Daniel Radcliffe portrays a man sent to deal with the legal
matters of a mysterious woman who has just died, and soon after
Daniel Radcliffe begins to experience strange events and
hauntings from the ghost of a woman dressed in black.[87]
Daniel Radcliffe has said
Daniel Radcliffe was "incredibly excited" to be part of the film
and described the script as "beautifully written".[88] Radcliffe's
godson Mischa, the son of Thea Sharrock, who co-directed the revival
of Equus with Daniel Radcliffe, portrayed Arthur's son in the
film.[89] Variety has confirmed
Daniel Radcliffe will star in the indie comedy The Amateur
Photographer, a film adaptation of the book of the same name,
directed by Christopher Monger. Set in 1970, it follows a man (Daniel
Radcliffe) who discovers his calling after being drafted by the
residents of a small English mill town to serve as a photographer
for their most personal moments.[90]
Daniel Radcliffe is set to portray Allen Ginsberg in the
upcoming thriller drama Kill Your Darlings, directed by John
Krokidas.[91][92]
Personal life
In 2008,
Daniel Radcliffe revealed that
Daniel Radcliffe suffers from a mild form of the neurological
disorder dyspraxia. The motor skill disorder sometimes gets so bad
that
Daniel Radcliffe has trouble doing simple activities, such as
writing or tying his own shoelaces. "I was having a hard time at
school, in terms of being crap at everything, with no discernible
talent,"
Daniel Radcliffe
commented.[93] In August 2010,
Daniel Radcliffe stopped drinking alcohol after finding himself
becoming too reliant on it.[94]
In 2012,
Daniel Radcliffe stated, "I think of myself as being
Jewish
and Irish, despite the fact that I’m English."[8]
Daniel Radcliffe
has also said, "I'm an atheist, and a militant atheist when religion
starts impacting on legislation",[95] and that
Daniel Radcliffe is "very proud of being
Jewish".[96][97][98]
Daniel Radcliffe is a supporter of the Labour Party.[99] Until
2012
Daniel Radcliffe had publicly supported the Liberal
Democrats,[100] and before the 2010 UK General Election
Daniel Radcliffe endorsed Nick Clegg, the Lib Dem leader. In
2012, however,
Daniel Radcliffe
switched his allegiance to Labour, citing disappointment with the
performance of Nick Clegg and the Lib Dems in government, and
approving of the Labour leader, Ed Miliband.[99] At the age of
sixteen,
Daniel Radcliffe became the youngest non-royal ever to have an
individual portrait in Britain's National Portrait Gallery (NPG). On
13 April 2006 his portrait, drawn by Stuart Pearson Wright, was
unveiled as part of a new exhibition opening at the Royal National
Theatre; it was then moved to the NPG where it resides.[101]
Daniel Radcliffe is a fan of underground[102] and punk rock
music,[103][104] and is a keen follower of cricket, including
cricketer Sachin Tendulkar.[105][106] Writing short stories and
poetry is also a passion.[107] In November 2007
Daniel Radcliffe
published several poems under the pen name Jacob Gershon – a
combination of his middle name and the
Jewish version of his mother's maiden name Gresham – in Rubbish,
an underground fashion magazine.[98][107]
Daniel Radcliffe enjoys a close friendship with his fellow Harry
Potter co-stars Tom Felton[102] and Emma Watson,[108] and is
tight-knit with his family, whom Daniel Radcliffe credits for
keeping him grounded.[109]

Deathly Hallows – Part 1 in Alice Tully Center, New York City in
November 2010
Speaking out against homophobia,
Daniel Radcliffe began filming public service announcements in
2009 for The Trevor Project, promoting awareness of gay teen suicide
prevention.[110][111] Daniel Radcliffe first learned of the
organisation while working on Equus on Broadway in 2008[111] and has
contributed financially to it.[112] "I have always hated anybody who
is not tolerant of gay men or lesbians or bisexuals. Now I am in the
very fortunate position where I can actually help or do something
about it,"
Daniel Radcliffe said in a 2010 interview. In the same
interview,
Daniel Radcliffe spoke of the importance of public figures
advocating for equal rights.[111]
Daniel Radcliffe considers his involvement to be one of the most
important things in his career and,[110] for his work for the
organisation,
Daniel Radcliffe was given the "Hero Award" in 2011.[110]
Daniel Radcliffe has supported various charities.
Daniel Radcliffe
designed the Cu-Bed for Habitat's VIP Kids range (a cube made of
eight smaller ones which can be made into a bed, chaise-longue or
chair)[113] with all the royalties from the sale of the bed going
directly to his favourite charity, Demelza House Children's Hospice
in Sittingbourne, Kent.[114]
Daniel Radcliffe has urged his fans to make donations, in lieu
of Christmas presents to him, to the charity's Candle for Care
program. In 2008
Daniel Radcliffe was among several celebrities who donated their
old glasses to an exhibit honouring victims of the Holocaust.[115]
During the Broadway run of Equus
Daniel Radcliffe auctioned off a pair of jeans Daniel Radcliffe
wore in the show for "thousands of dollars", as well as other items
worn in the show, for the Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS "a New
York-based nonprofit HIV/AIDS grant-making organisation".[116]
Daniel Radcliffe has also donated money to Get Connected UK, a
London-based free confidential national helpline for troubled
youth.[117]
Sources disagree about Radcliffe's personal wealth;
Daniel Radcliffe
was reported to have earned £1 million for the first Harry Potter
film[23] and around £15 million for the sixth.[11]
Daniel Radcliffe
appeared on the Sunday Times Rich List in 2006, which estimated his
personal fortune to be £14 million, making him one of the richest
young people in the UK.[118] In March 2009
Daniel Radcliffe was ranked number one on the Forbes "Most
Valuable Young Stars" list,[119] and by April The Daily Telegraph
measured his net worth at £30m, making him the 12th richest young
person in the UK.[120]
Daniel Radcliffe was considered to be the richest teenager in
England later that year.[11] In February 2010
Daniel Radcliffe was named the sixth highest paid Hollywood male
star[121] and placed at number five on Forbes's December list of
Hollywood's highest-grossing actors[note 1] with a revenue of US$780
million, mainly due to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows being
released that year.[122] Despite previous predictions that
Daniel Radcliffe
would have amassed £70m by the time the Harry Potter series
concluded,[120] the actor was reported to only have a wealth of
£28.5 million in 2010. This still makes him richer than Princes
William and Harry.[123] Despite his wealth,
Daniel Radcliffe has said
Daniel Radcliffe does not have expensive tastes and that his
main expense is buying books: "I read a lot."[124]
Daniel Radcliffe
also stated that money would never be the focus of his life.[11]
