Great Britain. Daniel gained popularity by playing Harry Potter in the film series of the same name. Pictures about the wizard boy became blockbusters around the world. In addition to participating in the "Potterian" Daniel Radcliffe began to play in the theater, and after filming in films about the school of magic, he continued his acting career.
Detractors believed that Radcliffe would remain an actor of one role, but Daniel began to receive offers to star in completely diverse projects: art-house films, action films, biographies, fantasy, mysticism and melodramas, which the young actor gladly accepted. Today creative biography Daniel Radcliffe has three dozen projects.
Daniel Jacob Radcliffe was born on July 23, 1989 in London, its western part called Fulham. Daniel grew up in the family of casting agent Marcia Jacobson and literary agent George Radcliffe. Mother has Jewish roots, and father is from Northern Ireland, Protestant. The parents decided that they would not raise their son in a religious way.
About acting career Radcliffe has been dreaming since high school when he first played the role of a monkey. Because of the filming of "Harry Potter" the actor, in the end, had to leave school, as envious classmates treated him with hostility. This fact only connected Radcliffe's life more strongly with the image of a wizard who could not find a place for himself in the Muggle world.
"Harry Potter"
Daniel starts acting in films early, back in 1999 the boy plays in the BBC film about Copperfield. At the same time, the young actor is casting for the role of Harry Potter in a series of film adaptations of the books of the same name. The novels tell about a magical world where wizards live hidden from the eyes of people without magical abilities, and magical children study in special schools. At the center of the book series is the story of the orphan boy Harry Potter. The boy was the only survivor of the attack evil wizard Voldemort. Harry Potter and his friends must find out the secret of his gift and resist evil, while studying at the Hogwarts magical school.
J.K. Rowling's books quickly became bestsellers around the world and spawned a fantasy subgenre about magical schools. The writer advised film directors and influenced castings.
The role of Harry almost went to the American Liam Aiken, but JK Rowling insisted that Harry be played by a British actor. With a similar predilection, young actors were selected for other key roles. The brilliant witch Hermione Granger played, and the role best friend Harry Ron Weasley got. played the eternal rival of Potter, the self-confident little scoundrel Draco Malfoy.
The first film was supposed to be an adaptation of the first book in the series. Filming continues throughout 2000. And in 2001, all the members of the film's cast, Daniel Radcliffe in particular, woke up famous. The actors who played the wizard children stayed on the project for ten years. The actors grew up along with their characters and the audience.
In 2002, the second Harry Potter film was released with the same cast, and in 2004, the third. So the film crew solved the problem of the similarities between the small and adult characters of the Potteriana. This decision turned into a problem in recent films– the shooting of each picture went longer than the events in the books lasted.
In the last "Harry Potters" the actors were older than the heroes by more than five years, and such a difference in adolescence noticeable. In many ways, the project was saved by the fact that the performers of the main roles retained medium-sized parameters even in adulthood. Daniel Radcliffe's height is 165-168 cm, as various media indicate, and his weight is 57 kg.
8 films about Harry Potter replenished the actor's account with more than $ 20 million.
In parallel with the filming, Daniel discovers the talent of a dramatic actor. Since 2004, Radcliffe has been involved in theatrical performances. One of Alan Strang's plays, in which an actor plays a distraught groom, involves the character appearing naked on stage.
In 2007, Daniel adopted the name Jacob Gershon, rewriting his mother's maiden name in a Jewish way to print poems under it in Rubbish magazine.
After the release of the final film "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" in 2011, many started talking that Radcliffe would remain a one-man actor. However, today Radcliffe has dispelled the speculations of ill-wishers about his talent and is actively filming, choosing only the most interesting projects for him.

Childhood of Daniel Radcliffe. First roles
Daniel Jacob Radcliffe was born in London in 1989 to Alan Radcliffe and Marcy Gresham. The boy's parents were closely associated with the art world: his father was a literary agent in a major London publishing house, and his mother worked as a casting director on television; in their youth, both tried their hand at acting roles. 
Little Daniel dreamed of becoming an actor from the age of five, and when he was placed in a private school, where six-year-old Radcliffe made his brilliant debut in an amateur production as a monkey, he began to persistently ask to be taken to a television casting. Parents were against it, because in childhood Daniel suffered from dyspraxia (impaired coordination), as a result of which he was very clumsy and studied extremely poorly. Yet, when the boy turned nine, Marcy gave in and brought him to the casting of "David Copperfield" based on the novel by Charles Dickens.
The film was sponsored by the BBC, but in 1999, shortly after the premiere on British screens, it was also seen by American viewers, who highly appreciated the performance of little Daniel: “An actor who looks so natural in the frame is a rarity, especially such a young one! He looked like a real orphan from the 19th century.”
The heyday of Daniel Radcliffe's career. Harry Potter and others
In 2000, Radcliffe received a cameo role in the film The Tailor from Panama: he played the son of the heroes Jamie Lee Curtis and Geoffrey Rush. At the same time, a search began in the UK for actors to film the first Harry Potter novel, which was released in 1997 and has already become a cult work for children around the world. 
The author of the novel, Joanne Rowling, set a firm condition: all the actors involved in the film must be British. Producer large-scale project Chris Columbus puzzled for a long time in search of a young actor who, firstly, would be a native of the UK, and secondly, would be liked by a demanding writer. By that time, the casting had already lasted 9 months, more than 16 thousand applicants tried for the role of Harry Potter, and all of them were rejected. "We'll have to make a movie without Harry Potter," the members of the film crew joked.
By chance, Chris stumbled upon a videotape with Copperfield, and after watching it, he immediately called an assistant with a demand to find the young actor. Radcliffe was invited to audition, but his parents were against it - they wanted their son to be an ordinary child: he studied, attended circles, played with friends, and did not spend his entire childhood on the set. The case helped: it turned out that the producer of the film, David Heyman, was closely acquainted with Radcliffe's father, who, after much persuasion, nevertheless gave his son to be "torn apart" by the directors. And most importantly, JK Rowling was delighted with Daniel, and the boy was approved for the role of Harry Potter.
“I had two reactions when I found out about the role,” said Daniel, “at first I cried because I was very happy! And then, a few hours later, I woke up in the middle of the night, ran to my parents in the bedroom to ask if I had a dream.
Daniel Radcliffe auditions for the role of Harry Potter
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone began filming in September 2000. Daniel was to play alongside Rupert Grint and Emma Watson, who were also approved by Rowling. During the work, everyone was amazed by Daniel's physical preparation: he did all the stunts himself, and only in the most dangerous scenes he was duplicated by stuntmen. For example, for the Quidditch game scene, the actor hung in the air on a broomstick at a height of several meters, and this did not frighten him at all.
To say that "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was a great success is to say nothing - worldwide rental fees approached the figure of a billion dollars. The emotional adventure of an orphan boy, who found out about his magical origin on the day of his 11th birthday, gathered full houses even a few months after the premiere.
The audience admired the play of young actors, separately noting the "deep intelligence with a slight sadness in the eyes of Harry Potter." They fell in love with the icy look of Draco Malfoy performed by Tom Felton, and the insidious potions teacher Severus Snape, masterfully embodied by Alan Rickman, and the wise director of Hogwarts, played by Richard Harris.
A year later, in November 2002, the premiere of the second part - "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" took place. The audience was amazed: good fairy tale about a wizard boy acquired dramatic shades, the characters matured, and plot twists sometimes made us think about the expediency of a 12+ rental rating. This trend has been exacerbated with each new Harry Potter film: for example, the fourth part of the film was not recommended for viewing by people under 13 years old.
In 2004, the third part, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, premiered. The film crew has undergone significant changes: firstly, the director has changed - Columbus was replaced by a little-known at that time Alfonso Cuaron, secondly, Richard Harris, who passed away on the eve of filming, was replaced by Michael Gambon, and, finally, the legendary Gary appeared among the actors Oldman, who took on the role of Uncle Sirius.
For the filming of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Daniel had to train a lot in scuba diving and stunts, for example, he once made a vertical fall from a height of 15 meters. The fourth part of the saga was attended by aspiring actor Robert Pattinson, who played Cedric Diggory, a gifted senior student from the Hufflepuff faculty, as well as unrecognizably made-up Ralph Fiennes, who personified the main villain of the novel, the dark magician Voldemort. The director also changed again - Mike Newell took over the post of Cuaron.
In 2006, Daniel Radcliffe finally expanded his portfolio with a new image, starring in the December Boys melodrama.
In the same year, filming of the fifth part of Harry Potter began. The actors had to leave Scotland, where they worked on previous films, and go to Scandinavia - only there the directors found snow-covered landscapes suitable for the scenery. Directed by new painting became David Yates, who "led" the franchise until the final.
In 2007, Radcliffe performed in theaters in the West End, and then on Broadway, where he appeared in the play Equus based on the play by Peter Schaeffer. According to the plot of the work, the stable boy goes crazy because of his love for horses. In one of the scenes, Daniel had to play completely naked, and when photos from the performance hit the press, many parents opposed Radcliffe from participating in the production: “He plays in the most popular children's film, and such obscene behavior corrupts his viewers!” Adding fuel to the fire was the fact that the actor transferred most of the fee to a fund to help suicidal LGBT teenagers.
Unfortunately, with the start of work on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Daniel did not have time for the theater, although before the start of filming he managed to light up in the film by British director Brian Kirk "My Boy Jack", which told about the tragic pages from the life of Rudhyar Kipling. Here Daniel, who by that time had celebrated his 18th birthday, appeared before the audience in the form of a military man with a youthful mustache. The character was as different from Harry Potter as possible, and this tape showed that Daniel Radcliffe is not a one-man actor at all.
The gloomy "Half-Blood Prince" was presented to the public in July 2009, and a year and a half later, the first part of the finale of the saga, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows", was released. Radcliffe was extremely impressed with the collaboration with Helena Bonham Carter, who played Voldemort's assistant Bellatrix Lestrange: "Helena is one of those actors who, as soon as they hear the command "Motor!", Just change, not only in terms of character but also physically.
In the same year, Daniel Radcliffe was declared the highest paid actor of the last decade. His fees for "Harry Potter" really grew exponentially. If he received “only” a million dollars for participating in the first part, then his salary for the first “Deathly Hallows” increased 20 times, and for the next episode he was already rewarded with 33 million.
The scale of the filming of the final part was amazing, for example, for the scene of the last battle between the forces of good and evil, 400 actors were involved who played the Death Eaters and their minions, on the one hand, and 400 actors who played the role of students and teachers of Hogwarts, on the other. The worldwide collections of the final part of "Harry Potter" amounted to almost one and a half billion dollars. At the exit from the cinemas, many spectators cried, longingly parting with the heroes who fell in love with their hearts.
Further career of Daniel Radcliffe
Harry Potter was over. The first months Radcliffe simply did not know what to do with himself, and eventually became addicted to drinking. “I felt absolutely inconsolable,” he shared during an interview. 
He was saved from alcoholic anguish by an invitation received at the end of 2011 from director James Watkins, who saw Daniel in the title role of his new project, the mystical thriller The Woman in Black. This time, Radcliffe has reincarnated as a young lawyer and single father from the Victorian era.
In 2012, Radcliffe played in the film adaptation of the story by Mikhail Bulgakov, called "Notes of a Young Doctor". Daniel appeared in the image of a young rural doctor, Vladimir, who faced numerous unforeseen difficulties during his practice. This experience left the actor with only fond memories, especially since his favorite work- The Master and Margarita novel.
A year later, a new film starring Daniel Radcliffe was released, a mystical drama with elements of the absurd called "Horns". The actor played an ordinary American guy who discovered in the morning that horns were growing from his head, giving him the ability to read the innermost thoughts of others.
Another project that Radcliffe was working on at that time was the drama Kill Your Darlings, where he played the beatnik Allen Ginsberg.
The next couple of years, Daniel Radcliffe again devoted theatrical activities, participating in the productions of "How to become a successful businessman and do nothing for it" and "Cripple from the island of Inishmaan." In addition, he starred in the comedy Friendship and No Sex? in a pair of Zoe Kazan, the melodrama "Girl without complexes" with Amy Schumer and Brie Larson, as well as in the biopic "Tipping Point" about the confrontation between lawyer Mike Thompson and the creators of the game "Grand Thief Auto".

Personal life of Daniel Radcliffe
45. Throughout the filming of parts of Harry Potter, rumors periodically slipped about the romance of Radcliffe and the actress who played the girlfriend of the protagonist -. However, these rumors had no basis, except that the actors spent a lot of time together. This fact is due only to the deep friendly sympathy that arose on the set.
46. Another rumor was blown up after the 2013 Oscars. The reason for inflating was the human and gentlemanly behavior of a young man, who was forced to appear on the red carpet with crutches in her hands. Daniel just sympathized and helped poor girl with a broken leg, inadvertently throwing a phrase that he is ready to carry poor Kirsten in his arms. The next morning, a message appeared in the press about a romantic relationship between the actors.
47. In fact, Radcliffe's only real relationship was on the set of the Potter stories, where he met Roseanne Cocker.

Online, Daniel Radcliffe is credited with a height of 165 centimeters. The data is most likely approximate, because the actor himself did not say anything specific about his height. But we will look into this in a little more detail.
First, let's look at the photo where Daniel Radcliffe is standing next to Andy Sambergwhose height is 175 centimeters. As you can see, the difference between the actors is more than 10 centimeters (about 14), which means that Daniel's height is less than 165.
In the next two photos, taken at different times, let's compare the actor's height with the height of James McAvoy (170 cm). If Daniel Radcliffe really were 165 tall, then the difference between them would be a maximum of 5 centimeters, but in both cases it reaches 8-9.
As in the previous case, Mark Ruffalo's height is 170 centimeters, and the difference between him and Daniel Radcliffe also reaches 9 centimeters.
Mike Tyson's height is a maximum of 178 centimeters. Here you can see that the fighter does not keep his back straight, which means he has lost a couple of centimeters in height. Here, the growth of Daniel Radcliffe stopped at around 162.
And finally, let's look at a couple more photos, where we compare Daniel Radcliffe with Dane DeHaanwhose height is approximately 173 centimeters. In both cases, the growth of Daniel Radcliffe did not exceed the mark of 161 centimeters (an error is possible due to shoes and posture).
After analyzing several photos, we came to the conclusion that Daniel Radcliffe can indeed be 165 centimeters tall, but only in a shod state and in the morning. And so his real height is a maximum of 162 cm.
Daniel Radcliffe is a successful actor of British origin, was born on 07/23/1989 in a suburb of London.
Childhood
Daniel's family was directly connected with the world of art and cinematography. His father, a native of Ireland, worked as a literary agent. And her mother, who was Jewish by origin, organized and conducted castings as a manager.
Of course, the mother dreamed that her son had a bright future. Moreover, the boy showed acting abilities early. Starting from the age of five, he attended all the auditions where children were required for filming. And in 1999, his first success smiled at him - he got a small role in the TV series about David Copperfield.
To the surprise of the director and parents, the boy managed to play in such a way that the audience would immediately remember. And other directors immediately drew attention to him. In the same 1999, the children's cast was being selected for the first part of the legendary Harry Potter film.
Potteriana
Several thousand children applied for the main role. The casting took place in several stages, and Daniel dreamed of at least getting into the extras of this film. But when he was approved for the main role, for several days he could not literally recover from the shock. This work became his real finest hour.
But the school suffered because of it. His parents' dream was to give him a prestigious education, and Daniel attended a good private school. When the shooting began, and classmates found out about it, children's envy greatly spoiled the guys' attitude towards him. They began to tease him, and from an ordinary student in just a few months he became a real outcast.
Fortunately, the mother understood that the future of her son is now determined not by his education at all. In addition, the fee that Daniel was supposed to receive for shooting allowed him to hire private teachers. Parents took the boy from school, and he received a certificate a little later than his peers, having passed the exams externally.
The fact is that immediately after the first part, which brought unprecedented profits to the producers, work began on the next one. Moreover, the boy's fee was already indicated by a seven-figure figure. The role of Harry Potter became a real Klondike for him - today the young actor's fortune is estimated at more than 20 million dollars.
An interesting fact is that the Potteriana, as the films were called by the directors and the audience, was filmed for almost 12 years. And if at the time of the release of the first series, Daniel was barely 12, then by the time this fantastic epic ended, he was exactly twice as old. But he continued to play a teenage hero - fortunately, the appearance and skill of the make-up artists made this possible.
Continuing a career
Although the producers did not require Daniel to refuse other offers while working on Harry Potter, the actor simply had neither the time nor the desire to do something else. Moreover, his fees were growing rapidly, and he could afford a luxurious and relaxed lifestyle. Which he did for several years.
The actor began to have problems with alcohol, which, perhaps, would have ruined his entire future career. But his mother was able to influence him. After two years of drinking from 2010 to 2012, the actor took up his mind again and went on film set already in a completely new quality.
For the first time in a different guise, the audience saw him in a mystical thriller, where he played a young lawyer hunting down the ghost of "The Woman in Black." Of course, this movie cannot be compared with Potteriana, but the work turned out to be quite successful - it was even nominated for several prestigious awards.
His next bright work was the thriller "Frankenstein", in which Daniel plays one of the two main roles - an assistant to a talented scientist who was involved in the revival of corpses. The film premiered in 2015. But he did not live up to the expectations of the audience and did not even pay off.
But in the detective thriller "Illusion of Deception-2" Radcliffe managed to brilliantly embody the villain Walter on the screen, who once ruined the protagonist's father. The film turned out to be a success. He brought his producers three times more money than was spent on its creation. In total, the actor's filmography already has more than 20 works, and he is not going to stop.
In the period from 2004 to 2010, the actor periodically managed to play in London theaters. And quite successfully. On the set, it suddenly turned out that he had good vocal abilities, and this allowed him even to take part in Broadway musicals. There followed a long break, and theater stage Radcliffe only returned in early 2017.
Personal life
He tries not to advertise his personal life. But charitable and social activities doing it with pleasure. Since 2008, he has been actively supporting the gay and LBGT protection program. Although he claims that he is not a homosexual.
Very little is known about the actor's love affairs to the public and journalists. During the filming of the Potterianas, he was regularly credited with novels with partners on the set. But in fact, between him and the young actresses there have always been only friendly relations.
The actor became romantically interested in 2010 with Rosie Cocker, a girl who assisted the director. But they met for a very short time. In fact, the novel fizzled out as soon as Potteriana was completed.
With Rosie Cocker
In 2012, the beautiful Erin Dark became his new chosen one, with whom he worked together on the Kill Your Darlings film. She is several centimeters taller than Daniel and a full five years older. However, the couple felt very comfortable together, but did not want to share their plans with the paparazzi.
With Erin Dark
Their first joint secular exit took place only in 2014, when rumors about the imminent engagement of lovers were already circulating with might and main. However, this event either did not take place or was never made public. In any case, we are definitely not talking about a wedding yet. Young people are actively filming and enjoying each other's company.
