Editor's Take:

Daniel Radcliffe grew up on screen as Harry Potter. He was 11 when he was cast as the boy wizard. Over ten years and eight films, he became one of the most recognisable actors in the world. After the series ended, he deliberately chose bold, unusual roles. He played a horse-obsessed boy on stage in Equus and a corpse in Swiss Army Man. He has also shone in comedy and musicals. In 2024 he won a Tony Award for Merrily We Roll Along.
