Daniel Jacob Radcliffe was born on July 23rd, 1989 to Alan
Radcliffe and Marcia Gresham. He began performing in small school productions as
a young boy. Soon enough, he landed a role in David Copperfield (1999) (TV), as
the young David Copperfield. A couple of years later, he landed a role as Mark
Pendel in The Tailor of Panama (2001), the son of Harry and Louisa Pendel
(Geoffrey Rush and Jamie Lee Curtis). Lee Curtis had indeed pointed out to
Daniel's mother that he could be Harry Potter himself. Soon afterwards, Daniel
was cast as Harry Potter by director, Chris Columbus in the film that hit
theatres in November 16, 2001, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001).
He
was recognized worldwide after this film was released. Pleasing audiences and
critics everywhere, filming on its sequel, Harry Potter and the Chamber of
Secrets (2002), commenced shortly afterwards. He appeared again as Harry in
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) directed by Alfonso Cuar=n, and
then appeared in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005) directed by Mike
Newell. Shortly afterwards, he finished filming December Boys (2006) in
Adelaide, Australia, Kangaroo Island, and Geelong, Australia which began on the
14th of November, 2005 and ended sometime in December. On January 27th, 2006, he
attended the South Bank Awards Show to present the award for "Breakthrough
Artist of the Year" to Billie Piper. Dan's set to reprise his famous character
once again for the next installment of the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and
the Order of the Phoenix (2007), which filming begins sometime early in February
2006.
Now being one of the world's most recognizable people, Daniel leads a somewhat
normal life. He has made friends working on the Harry Potter films, which
include his co-stars Rupert Grint and Emma Watson. Hopefully, he will continue
his blossoming acting career and be truly brilliant
