HARRY POTTER
Harry returns to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for his second year of studies - and for a second year as Seeker for the Gryffindor Quidditch team - but not without incident! Despite a warning to stay away from Hogwarts, the new year finds Harry discovering a new threat to the school… 13 year-old DANIEL RADCLIFFE once again reprises his role from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. He beat thousands of hopefuls to secure the role he seems born to play. As director Chris Columbus says: "Dan walked into the room and we all knew we had found Harry." Playing the role of young Harry Potter has won Daniel worldwide acclaim and the Variety Club of Great Britain's Best Newcomer Award, presented in February 2002. In April 2002 he was also honored with the prestigious David Di Donatello Award presented by Italy's Ente David Di Donatello - for his superb portrayal of Harry and for his contribution to the future of cinema. Daniel first appeared on screens in December 1999 when he played the young David Copperfield in BBC television's production of David Copperfield. The drama, which was directed by Simon Curtis, also starred Dame Maggie Smith who appeared alongside him as Professor McGonagall in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Prior to filming the first Harry Potter feature, he made his feature film debut as Jamie Lee Curtis' and Geoffrey Rush's screen son in John Boorman's The Tailor of Panama. |
