Daniel Radcliffe
(Actor)
.. Arthur Kipps
Born:
July 23, 1989
in
London
Best Known For:
Playing Harry Potter.
Early-life:
Daniel Jacob Radcliffe was born in Fulham on July 23, 1989. His father is a literary agent, his mother a casting agent. He knew from an early age he wanted to be an actor, and made his debut as the young David in a TV adaptation of Charles Dickens' David Copperfield, before featuring in Pierce Brosnan movie The Tailor of Panama. Although he was already pencilled in for an audition to play Harry Potter, he became a front-runner for the part after producer David Heyman spotted him in a theatre audience.
Career:
After landing the leading role in the Potter films, Radcliffe's profile went stratospheric. Away from all things Harry, he made a splash in February 2007 when he trod the boards in a revival of the controversial play Equus. Radcliffe gained rave reviews for his portrayal of Alan Strang - a role that required him to be nude on stage. He's also taken roles in the smaller budget film December Boys and TV drama My Boy Jack. In 2011 he played J Pierrepont Finch in the Broadway revival of How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. He had a box office hit with horror movie The Woman in Black, and enjoyed critical success with Kill Your Darlings, in which he played Beat poet Allen Ginsberg. He continues to push himself in a wide variety of theatre and film roles.
Quote:
"People talk about rebellion and they say, 'Where is the teenage angst?' But I say I try to do it simply by the choices I make in the work I do."
Trivia:
Radcliffe claims he decided not to go to college or university because of the attention it would receive from the media.
