The
boy
who
played
Harry
Potter
is
ever
grateful
for
the
role
that
knocked
down
all
the
doors
for
him,
but
he’s
also
been
busy
scrubbing
any
child-star
residue
from
his
acting
image,
starting
with
his
raw,
nudity-requiring
Broadway
debut
in
Equus
in
2007. He
followed
that
up
with
the
more
chipper How
to
Succeed
in
Business
Without
Really
Trying in
2011.
For
years
he
has
alternated
between
theater
(The
Cripple
of
Inishmaan,
Rosencrantz
and
Gildenstern
Are
Dead)
and
film
(The
Woman
in
Black,
Victor
Frankenstein),
leaning
heavily
into
the
dramatic
and/or
the
absurd.
To
be
sure,
if
there’s
some
dark
humor
to
be
found,
Radcliffe
is
into
it,
whether
on
TV
playing
a
morphine-addicted
physician
in
A
Young
Doctor’s
Notebook
or
a
low-level
angel
trying
to
prevent
God
from
ending
the
world
in
Miracle
Workers—or
playing
a
flatulent
corpse
in
2016’s
Swiss
Army
Man.
He
was
starring
in
Samuel
Beckett‘s
Endgame
at
the
Old
Vic
in
London
when
live
theater
and
everything
else
was
shut
down
due
to
the
coronavirus
pandemic.
Since
then,
he
played
the
villain
opposite
Sandra
Bullock
and
Channing
Tatum
in
their
2022
rom-com
The
Lost
City
and portrayed
musician
“Weird
Al”
Yankovic
in
Weird:
The
Al
Yankovic
Story,
a
biographical
parody
film
for
The
Roku
Channel.
Sober
since
2010,
Radcliffe
has
also
been
open
about
drinking
to
excess
back
when
the
Harry
Potter
franchise
was
nearing
its
finish
and,
already
more
famous
than
he
ever
dreamed,
he
was
anxious
about
his
next
step
in
life.
“In
my
case,
the
quickest
way
to
forget
about
the
fact
that
you’re
being
watched
is
to
get
very
drunk,”
he
said
on
Off
Camera
With
Sam
Jones
in
2019.
“And
then
as
you
get
very
drunk,
you
become
aware
that, ‘Oh,
people
are
watching
more
now
because
now
I’m
getting
very
drunk,
so
I
should
probably
drink
more
to
ignore
that
more.'”
Radcliffe
has
been
in
a
relationship
with
actress
Erin
Darke
since
meeting
her
on
the
set
of
2013’s
Kill
Your
Darlings,
in
which
he
played “Howl”
poet
Alan
Ginsberg.
In
March,
a
rep
for
Radcliffe
confirmed
to
E!
News
that
the
couple
is
expecting
their
first
child.
