Daniel Radcliffe was born on July 23, 1989 in London to casting manager Marcia Janine Gresham Jacobson and Alan Radcliffe, a literary agent. As children, both of Daniel's parents acted in films. Radcliffe has Jewish, Polish and even Russian roots. The boy from childhood began to be interested in acting, and at the age of five he began to participate in school theater productions. He played his first role in 1999 in the television movie "David Copperfield" on the BBC channel. Daniel's mother also worked closely with this channel, which probably served as a good impetus for starting his son's acting career. In the two-part film, the boy played the young David Copperfield, the famous magician.
Daniel Radcliffe - Harry Potter
But the real world fame came to him a year later, when Daniel passed the casting for the role of Harry Potter for the film. Rumor has it that the casting agent was already desperate to find a suitable boy when he came to visit his friend one evening and was amazed at how his son was suitable for this role. Daniel's candidacy was approved by JK Rowling herself, the author of the Harry Potter novels. It is worth noting that the writer personally took part in the selection of candidates for the main roles. The film, which was released in 2001, was directed by Chris Columbus. Daniel Radcliffe woke up one morning as a real world star. Because of the ridicule of classmates, he even had to leave school, but he never regretted it.
Following the release of the first Harry Potter film, filming began on the second. The success of each subsequent film in the franchise has become more and more, and the number of fans of the actor has grown every day. The last, eighth film, titled Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, was released in 2011, its budget was about 125 million, and the fees of Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson rose to seven figures. Daniel became one of the youngest millionaires in the UK and immediately got into the top 5 richest actors in the country.
Radcliffe himself has repeatedly stated that he is not interested in money, and he is not engaged in the acting profession because of them. After the release of the last part of the Harry Potter franchise, Daniel began to abuse alcohol, but, as he later admitted, he managed to overcome this addiction.
The roles of Daniel Radcliffe
In 2012, he starred in the film and TV series Notes of a Young Doctor, based on the novel by M. Bulgakov. The actor has repeatedly stated that Bulgakov is his favorite writer, and Russia is one of his favorite countries. Daniel celebrated his 21st birthday in one of the bars in St. Petersburg. An unusual role for him was the image of Alan Ginsberg in the film. In it, Radcliffe played the famous writer and gay Alan Ginsberg. Critics rated Daniel's work quite highly.
Daniel Radcliffe in Eucus
In addition to film roles, Daniel Radcliffe also participates in theatrical productions.

Along with Daniel in this production was played by actor Richard Griffiths, who played Uncle Vernon in Harry Potter.
Personal life of Daniel Radcliffe
The personal life of the actor is without scandals. Daniel carefully guards the details of his novels and does not like to talk about them to the press. However, from paparazzi photographs, it can be concluded that at different periods of his life he met with actress Laura O'Toole, Olive Anyak and Roseanne Cocker. The last two girls are related to the filming of the Harry Potter films, and Daniel met them on the set.
Hobbies of Daniel Radcliffe
Radcliffe is a big fan of punk rock and rap music. He enjoys performing his favorite songs in karaoke, and his version of Blackalicious's Alphabet Aerobics song, which the actor performed on the Jimmy Kimmel show, has become a real sensation on Youtube.

After participating in the global Harry Potter franchise, when his face was adorned absolutely everywhere, from pillowcases to toothbrushes, professional growth Daniel Radcliffe looks even more impressive. The wizard boy made the audience see him as a serious man. In 2008, he burst onto Broadway in the production of Equus / Equus, ridiculed his own image of a star child in the series Extras / Extras, played a major role in the American television adaptation of Bulgakov's Notes of a Young Doctor / A Young Doctor's Notebook. In this The 25-year-old Briton's transformation is completed with the release of his first romantic comedy. "Friendship and no sex", where Radcliffe tries not to recapture Zoe Kazan from the handsome Ralph Spall - a modern version of the Hollywood masterpiece "When Harry Met Sally". Behind the scenes, Daniel is in a serious relationship with actress Erin Darke, whom he met last year on the set of Kill Your Darlings. In a candid interview with ELLE, the actor talked about losing his virginity, filming naked, and how to act around friends.
ELLE What do you need to find in a girl's apartment in order to immediately understand: you are incompatible with her?
DANIEL RADCLIFFE Well, if she had a whole shelf of vegetarian cookbooks, I'd know I was in trouble.
ELLE Wouldn't a complete set of Harry Potter books be more dangerous?
D.R. Come on! Many have them. It would be wrong to deprive yourself of a chance because of such a trifle.
ELLE You stripped in "Friendship and no sex", completely naked in "Equus"... Are you comfortable naked in public?
D.R. No. Rather, relatively comfortable. I have to say, the first time I had to get naked on a Broadway stage at 17, I was nervous as hell.
ELLE Was embarrassed later to meet girls who said: “Oh, I saw Equus ...”?
D.R. Not particularly. I didn't date many girls at that time. But such a dialogue would most likely continue with the words: “Oh, cool, you saw me naked!”
ELLE What changed for you the day you lost your virginity?
D.R. Hmm... You know, I'm probably one of the few who had a really great first time!
ELLE Really? Did everything go according to plan?
D.R. It was with a girl I knew well. I am happy to say that since then I have had many more successful sex, but the first time for me was not as terrible and awkward as others. For example, like my friend, who got drunk and indulged in passion with a stranger under the bridge.
ELLE Yeah, do you think it's better to have sex when sober?
D.R. I do not rule out that for someone drunk sex is the ultimate dream. But personally, for me and the person with whom I do this, it is much better sober.
D.R. In my youth, at the age of 16-19, I was fond of writing and during that period I wrote many love poems. But today I can say with all responsibility - there is not a single one of them that I would like to see printed or found on the Internet. ( laughing.)
ELLE There are rumors that you are engaged...
D.R. No.
ELLE Do you believe in marriage?
D.R. Haven't figured it out yet. In my opinion, the most romantic act that you can do is to stand in front of a crowd of friends and relatives and confess your love to your only one.
ELLE Sounds like the words of the heroine Zoe Kazan from "Friendship and no sex" ...
D.R. Is it? Did she say the same there?
ELL Yes.
D.R. Well, apparently, these words sunk into my soul. There is something fantastic in marriage ... On the other hand, all this that accompanies a wedding ... In general, I still have doubts, but I think that sometime in the future I will have all this.
ELLE The film "Friendship and no sex" asks the audience the eternal question: "Can a man and a woman be friends?" What do you think?
D.R. In fact, these are two whole questions that are always trying to fit into one! Can a man and a woman be friends? Of course, I have many friends of women with whom I have not had sex and no reason to have it.
ELLE And another question?
D.R. Can a man and a woman who are romantically or sexually attracted to each other be friends without it becoming a problem? This is a much more difficult question. Ultimately, sooner or later they will have to explain themselves. I would definitely want to find out the relationship, because otherwise I would go crazy. That's the big difference between me and my character in Friendship and No Sex. Wallace is able to live in painful uncertainty much longer than I could.
ELLE And how long could I, I wonder?
D.R. It would probably last a few months.
ELLE In Harry Potter you worked with many legendary English actresses. Did any of them give you good advice about girls?

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 next appearance on the screen was a cameo role in the 2001 film The Tailor from Panama, in which Daniel played the son of Geoffrey Rush and Jamie Lee Curtis. While Radcliffe was filming this picture, a long and difficult search began in England for young talented actors to film the world's most popular modern children's book - the story of Harry Potter. The director of the first two Harry Potter films, Chris Columbus, stumbled upon a tape of David Copperfield - and after watching it, he asked his casting assistant to invite the young actor to audition. Auditions for the role of Harry Potter had already lasted unsuccessfully for 9 months, during which time more than 16,000 applicants were screened, and only two months remained before filming began.
In August 2000, it was announced that Dan Radcliffe, Rupert Greene and Emma Watson were confirmed to star in the Harry Potter film. Book author Joanna Rowling expressed her personal approval of the cast.
Filming of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone began in September 2000 - the film was released in November 2001, and three days after the premiere, the team began filming the second part - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002). Daniel Radcliffe was waiting for no less loud fame than the film itself - overnight his face graced the covers of the world's leading publications, Danny became a universal favorite.
In 2002, during a break between filming the second and third parts of Harry Potter, Daniel made his stage debut in Kenneth Branagh's The Play I Wrote. In May 2002, Daniel volunteered to make a DVD titled Mind Reading: the Interactive Guide to Emotion. In between filming the fourth and fifth Harry Potter films, Radcliffe began filming the independent drama film December Boys, based on the novel by Michael Noonan.
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 Alfonso Cuarón, a little-known at that time, secondly, Richard Harris, who died on the eve of filming, was replaced by Michael Gambon, and, finally, the legendary Gary appeared among the actors. Oldman taking on the role of Uncle Sirius.
Interesting facts about the filming of "Harry Potter"
- 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.
- In the fourth part of the saga, aspiring actor Robert Pattinson took part, playing Cedric Diggory, a gifted senior student from the Hufflepuff faculty, as well as Ralph Fiennes, who was unrecognizably made up, personifying the main villain of the novel, the dark magician Voldemort.
- The director also changed again - Mike Newell took over the post of Cuaron.
Adulthood. Continuation of a film career and theatrical roles
In 2006, the 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. The director of the new picture was David Yates, who "led" the franchise right up to the finale.
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 was to play completely naked, and when photos from the performance got into the press, many parents came out to ban Radcliffe from the production: “He is playing in the most popular children's film, and such obscene behavior corrupts his audience!” . 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 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. 2009: Daniel Radcliffe is the highest paid actor.
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.
Radcliffe's later career
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. After Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe became addicted to alcohol. 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 only warm memories, especially since his favorite work is the novel The Master and Margarita.
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 himself to theatrical activities, participating in the productions of How to Become a Successful Businessman and Do Nothing for It and The Cripple 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
Theatrical activity
In 2004, in addition to working in films, the actor played a role in the London version of the production of the musical comedy called The Play What I Wrote.
From February 2007 to February 2009, he played in another theatrical production based on Peter Schaeffer's famous play Equus.
According to the plot of the play, the stable boy Alan Strang, because of his love for horses, blinds them and goes crazy (the role of the psychiatrist Dyzert was played by Richard Griffiths, Uncle Vernon in Harry Potter). After some editorial offices released the first photos of the performance with the naked character of Radcliffe, many parents demanded to stop the actor's participation in this event, threatening otherwise to ban their children from watching the subsequent parts of Harry Potter. In 2011, Radcliffe played Jay Pipront Finch, a New York window cleaner in the musical How to Succeed in Business Without Doing Nothing.
Social work
Daniel Radcliffe makes a personal contribution to the fight for gay rights. Speaking out against all forms of homophobia, in 2009 Radcliffe began appearing in public service announcements for the Trevor Project, an organization that provides educational materials about homosexuality and suicide prevention for LGBT teenagers.
The actor first learned about this project while working on the play Equus in 2008. He made a significant financial donation to this organization.
“I have always hated those who infringe on the rights of gays, lesbians and bisexuals. I consider myself very lucky to be able to really help and make my personal contribution to this cause.” In one of the interviews, he spoke about the importance of the participation of public figures in the struggle for equal rights. Radcliffe calls this activity one of the most important components of his career. In 2011, The Trevor Project awarded the actor with the Hero Award.

Few can boast the same popularity and fame as Daniel Radcliffe. The filmography of the actor has about thirty films. And he's not even thirty years old. It is not surprising that millions of fans of his work can be found all over the world who would be interested in learning more about him.
Actor biography
He was born on July 23, 1990 in the small town of Fulham, west of London. His father is literary agent Alan Radcliffe, Irish. Mother - Marcia Gianni Gresham, was engaged in casting actors, is a native of South Africa.
From an early age, the mother's profession affected Daniel - at the age of five he became seriously interested in acting, and soon he had the opportunity to play a monkey in a school production, receiving rave reviews from the audience.
He studied at the same time in two private schools for boys: the school of the City of London and Sussex.
Alas, after the first successes in cinematography, his head turned to star disease, as is often the case with young actors. Relations with classmates deteriorated sharply, the boy became a real outcast. As a result, the school had to be abandoned, completely switching to home schooling.
The Boy Who Lived
Of course, Harry Potter was the pinnacle of creativity for actor Daniel Radcliffe. The list of filmography does not begin at all with him - before that, the boy managed to star in the films "David Copperfield" (played a young illusionist) and "The Tailor from Panama". So, when he came to the casting studio at the age of 11, where they were looking for an actor who could perfectly play Harry Potter, he already had some experience and a track record.
From 2001 to 2011, he was very busy filming the Potter series. However, even under such conditions, Daniel Radcliffe managed to act in other films. Filmography (list of films) was replenished at the same time with such films as "Children's Party in the Palace", "December Boys" and "My Boy Jack".
Moreover, he even managed to "light up" in the animated series "The Simpsons". The hero voiced Edmund - a vampire, the prototype of which was the vampire Edward from the movie "Twilight" (who, by the way, was played by Robert Pattinson, who played an important role in the fourth film about Harry Potter).
Over the next seven years, Radcliffe starred in almost twenty more films, but none of them could overshadow the role of "the boy who lived" and hardly can.
Impressive fees
For shooting in the first part of the film about a juvenile wizard, the actor received "only" 150 thousand pounds (about 220 thousand dollars). The fee for the fourth film was very different from the previous ones - as much as 5.6 million pounds (more than 8 million dollars). For the fifth film, he earned 8 million pounds (approximately $12 million).
Thanks to such generous fees, Daniel Radcliffe's fortune is currently estimated at about 23 million pounds.
Other significant roles
Of course, even when it comes to an actor like Daniel Radcliffe, the full filmography is rarely covered in one article. It is better to list the most interesting and notable roles.
These include the role of lawyer Arthur Kipps in the mystical thriller The Woman in Black. He arrived in a provincial town to find and study the will of a deceased client. But he soon realizes that forces are involved here, in the existence of which most people do not believe. He will have to challenge them in order to survive and return to his son.
He also played in the British TV series Notes of a Young Doctor, based on the stories of Mikhail Bulgakov. The film is set in the Russian outback and young doctor Vladimir Bomgard (Daniel Radcliffe) must go through many hardships to help his patients and himself.
The film "Horns" can be called very unusual, in which the actor also got the main role (it would be strange if he agreed to a minor one) - Iga Parrish. His girlfriend is killed and all the acquaintances are sure that Ig was involved in this. Confidence only grew stronger when ... horns grew on the guy's head. In addition, he received a unique feature - in his presence, people speak only the truth. Ig, having experienced a brief depression and panic, hopes that this ability will help him bring the real killer to clean water.
Many people remember the film "The Jungle", based on real events. In it, Daniel Radcliffe played Yossi Ginsberg, who found himself in the wilds of the Amazon without food, equipment and friends. For several weeks, he survived in inhuman conditions, demonstrating outstanding fortitude, a desire for life.
Well, the most unusual role, of course, was the role of Manny in the movie "Swiss Army Man". The thing is, Manny is dead. With him, in order not to go crazy, the main character Hank, who finds himself on a desert island, talks to him. However, he soon discovers that the dead can perform many valuable functions that make him a truly indispensable "partner" in survival.
To date, it is impossible to say what the filmography owned by actor Daniel Radcliffe looks like - the list of films is constantly updated with new pictures that invariably delight fans.
Problems in personal life
Alas, wealth and fame do not always bring joy and happiness. They simply crush many children and young people. The problems at school have already been mentioned above. But Daniel Radcliffe survived others.
For example, in 2010, when he was only 20 years old, he had serious problems with alcohol. Having earned enough money, he decided, in his words, "to devote himself to this pleasure." Fortunately, he soon gave up this addiction.
In personal life, not everything is as smooth as we would like. The actor started dating girls many times, but each time he broke up - the reason is the same star disease and numerous nit-picking partners.
Conclusion
From the article, you learned more about such a popular actor as Daniel Radcliffe. Filmography, the best films and his personal life can be interesting topics for discussion among true cinephiles.
Daniel Radcliffe is a talented, popular British actor who was born on July 23, 1989 in a small town near London. The biography and personal life of Daniel Radcliffe is a simple but fascinating success story of a young talented boy.
Actor's childhood
Daniel's family has always been associated with the world of cinema and art. His father, originally from Ireland, worked as a literary agent all his life. His mother organizes and conducts various castings, acting as a manager.
Of course, his mother wanted her son to have an outstanding future. It is worth saying that the boy showed his acting talents at an early age. From the age of 5, he went to various auditions and castings, where they were looking for children for filming in various projects. In 1999, luck smiles at him: he gets a small role in the series based on the novel by Charles Dickens about To the great surprise of both the parents and the director, the boy played the role superbly, remembering the audience. This influenced the fact that other directors began to pay attention to him. In the same year, he successfully passed the selection for the cast for the first part of the legendary "Potteriana".
The Boy Who Lived
For the main role in the Philosopher's Stone, the actor was selected from several thousand children. The casting was divided into several stages, so Daniel wanted to at least get into the extras for this film. But, much to his happiness, he was approved for the main role. All weekend he could not recover from delight and shock. This work became his ticket to the big world of cinema. As Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe became famous all over the world.
Nevertheless, a large role influenced his schooling. His parents dreamed of giving him a great education, and Daniel went to an excellent school. However, after the shooting started and they found out about it at school, the children began to envy his success, which spoiled the attitude of the guys towards the young actor. They began to tease him, and in just a few months he turned into a real outcast.
Fortunately for Daniel, his mother was well aware that his future would not be determined by education, but by these shootings in which he was busy. The fee that Daniel will receive after filming the first part, made it possible for his parents to hire private teachers. They gave him an excellent education after his parents took him out of school. Radcliffe received his certificate a little later than his peers. It was on this set that Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson met and became good friends.
money and fame
After the first part of "Potteriana", which brought huge profits to the producers, work on the second part immediately began. The boy's fee has increased significantly. The role in the film will provide him for a long time, today the actor's fortune is estimated at about $ 20 million.
It is worth noting that the films based on the Harry Potter books were filmed for 12 years. If at the time of the release of the first part, Daniel was only 12 years old, then when this fantastic epic ended, he was already 24 years old, although he continued to play a teenager. Fortunately, his youthful appearance, as well as the skill of the make-up team, made it possible. Not only Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson were older than their heroes, Rupert Grint also significantly outgrew the book Ron.
Life after Harry Potter
Despite the fact that the producers did not force Daniel to refuse other offers while working on Harry Potter, he still simply did not have free time and desire to engage in other projects. There was also no talk of a wife for Daniel Radcliffe. It is worth noting that his fees increased rapidly, thanks to which he could afford a measured, luxurious lifestyle. In fact, that's exactly what he did for several years. The actor began to have minor problems with alcohol, which could well have ruined his entire career. Nevertheless, his loved ones helped him cope. After two years of wild life, the actor took up his mind and appeared on the site already in a new role.
For the first time in a new incarnation, viewers could see Radcliffe in a mystical thriller, where he played the role of a young lawyer and hunted down a ghost. Of course, The Woman in Black was not as successful as the Harry Potter films, but the picture turned out to be quite successful. He was even nominated for several prestigious awards. Rumors began to appear about the possible wife of Daniel Radcliffe, because he had long ceased to be "the boy who survived."
His next interesting work was the thriller "Frankenstein", where Daniel played in tandem with James McAvoy. He chose the role of an assistant to a talented scientist who was engaged in the revival of the dead. Despite such an interesting duet, the film failed to live up to the expectations of the audience and, unfortunately, did not pay off. Further, the actor plays in the film "Kill Your Darlings", where Erin Darke and Daniel Radcliffe met.
Then Radcliffe appears in the detective thriller "The illusion of deception 2", where he played the antagonist Walter. The film was warmly received by critics, and the studio earned from it three times more than the budget spent. At the moment, the actor has about 20 works in his filmography, and he is constantly looking for a new field for his talent.
Theatrical life
Periodically, the actor also plays in London theaters with great success. During filming, it turned out that Daniel had good vocal abilities, thanks to which he often performs on the Broadway stage. Now the actor often appears in theatrical productions, which brings him pleasure.
Personal life
There are a lot of questions about the possible wife of Daniel Radcliffe. About his personal life, the actor tries not to spread much. He is best known for his charitable and social activities. Since 2008, he has often supported programs for the protection of gays, as well as members of LGBT movements. As we have already said, the actor hardly talks about his love affairs, and even the paparazzi rarely manage to film him with someone. Of course, during the filming of "Potteriana" there were often rumors about his romances with partners on the set, but between him and his colleagues there were always only friendly relations.
The actor's first known romantic interest came in 2010. He began dating Rosie Cocker, a girl who worked as an assistant director. In fact, their romance ended as soon as the work related to Harry Potter was completed.
In 2012, Daniel Radcliffe collaborated on the set of Kill Your Darlings. Despite the fact that she is 5 years older than the guy, this did not in the least prevent them from falling in love with each other. They did not advertise their relationship and practically did not appear together in front of the cameras.
Their first outing together took place in 2014, when the press was buzzing with rumors about their possible engagement. However, this event either did not take place, or has not yet been made public. While she is not the wife of Daniel Radcliffe. In any case, there is definitely no talk of a wedding yet. Young people enjoy each other, and isn't that wonderful?
