Daniel Radcliffe is an English actor who rose to international stardom as Harry Potter in the series of films based on the hugely popular books by J.K. Rowling.

Daniel Radcliffe’s parents initially refused to let him audition for the role, but a chance meeting with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone director Chris Columbus led to an audition. Those involved with the film were in overwhelming agreement that Radcliffe would make the perfect Harry, and the books' legions of fans seemed to agree. He reprised his role in each of the first film’s sequels. He went on to perform on Broadway in plays such as How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying (2011). Radcliffe also starred in the 2013 film Kill Your Darlings.
