Daniel RadcliffeDaniel Jacob Radcliffe (born July 23, 1989), from Fulham, London, is an English actor who is best known for playing Harry Potter, the main character of the film Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and its sequels (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire).

Radcliffe’s parents, Alan Radcliffe and Marcia Gresham, discouraged their only child from show business when, at age five, he said that he wanted to perform. However, they must have soon changed their minds, as in December 1999, he made his first on-screen appearance as the young David Copperfield in David Copperfield, the BBC’s televised version of the Dickens novel David Copperfield. This was followed in 2001 by his first film appearance, as Mark Pendel in The Tailor of Panama. In 2001 he starred in his breakthrough role; that of Harry Potter in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.

In 2002 he had a role in the play The Play What I Wrote directed by Kenneth Branagh; a production well known for its “surprise guest”. In 2004 and 2005 he returned to the Potter franchise in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. He reprised the role of Harry in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, scheduled for a November 2005 release. Radcliffe starred in the independent Australian film December Boys directed by Rod Hardy within the next year and in 2007 he again will put on the famous lightning-bolt shaped scar and round glasses in the fifth Harry Potter film Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
