Daniel Jacob Radcliffe is a famous English actor best known for his leading role and performance as the main character Harry Potter in the entire eight films from the fictional film series with the same name. Radcliffe was born on July 23, 1989 in Hammersmith, London. He is the only child of literary agent Alan George Radcliffe and casting agent Marcia Jacobson. His real acting debut was made in 1999, when Daniel performed in BBC One’s film David Copperfield. Two years later, he managed to make his cinematic debut in another screen appearance on the film The Tailor Of Panama. Finally, he landed the role of a lifetime, Harry Potter’s character at age 11, which he has come to personify from the very first film until the release of the eighth and final film in 2011.
Throughout starring in the Harry Potter series only, Daniel has made a net worth which is more than $84 million according to the Daily Mail.
