Mercy me.

Only 20?

He strikes me as someone who'll grow up bitter at Harry Potter and typecasting, completely ungrateful for the millions he earnt off it.

Nobody wants to see him naked on stage again. I'm sure they'll give him movie roles so he could keep his cloths on!

[Kritish]

He's going to turn into the next Mark Hamill, Hamill couldn't get work after playing Luke Skywalker either.

He should just retire.

He's done well with voice work though. I'd never want to hear Radcliffe's voice in a cartoon...

Damn, 40 million dollars..... Lucky bastard :csad:

Being around the age of 18 does not give one the right to have the body of a man, yet.

[xwolverine2]

now i must hit on him

[04nbod]

He's doing something on TV soon. I saw the preview it looked good but i can't remember what the hell its called. I think emma watson is going to be the bitter one out of all the harry potter actors.

When I turned 20 I got a VCR/DVD combo player. I think Radcliffe will keep himself in check. He seems to have his head on straighter than most people. As far as his career goes, I think we'll see him do well for himself after Potter.

[terry78]

He already said in interviews that he just plans on having a small gathering for family and friends and won't be getting drunk and going nuts, because he says that's what the media expects for people his age.

[Halcohol]

He IS kinda funny, but only because he's automatically assumed to be Harry Potter.

Well good for him. Very wise decision of his parents to put his money in a trust fund that he couldn't touch. Not many Hollywood parents do that now-a-days. I applaud their responsibility :up:

Radcliffe seems very down to earth. As for him becoming the next Mark Hammill? I used to think he had very little real talent, but from what I hear he has improved greatly between OOTP and GOF. Stage acting helps actors grow a lot, so if he can continue to do some stage work and improve he may get good enough to break the typecast.

Besides, to quote Ari Gold "Look over there. Thats the Joker, thats Batman, and thats Spider-Man. You know what they all have in common? Their type-casted....AS RICH GUYS!"

While Radcliffe plans on buying a ford focus, the kid who plays malfoy has bought a new BMW when he cant even drive yet and the kid who plays Ron has bought an Ice Cream Truck.

Seems kid of representative of the characters they play really...

Lol - it really does, doesn't it

Personally, I think Emma would have the easiest of times escaping the role. It's the kid who plays Ron who I think might become spiteful.

The kid who plays Ron actually has good comedic timing and delivery. That will go much further than Emma Watson's overacting and being a pedophile's wet dream

Plus he's already juggled other movies with Harry Potter.

[terry78]

I'd wager Rupert Grint will be the first one to crossover and do an American flick with somebody.

Emma Watson will cross over first. Radcliffe will continue to do stage work for awhile. He improved greatly between GOF and OOTP. He just needs to go a little further and he will be set to be a decent actor. Plus he will need the Harry Potter buzz to die down.

Grint is going to end up doing a few small budget, indie comedies. Nothing major.

Watson is going to make the attempt of trying to use her looks to go mainstream despite the fact that she needs to do some stage work to improve her talent. She will do a couple low brow teen comedies or horror movies to get rid of the kiddie image. One may succeed, but for the most part will bomb. She will try posing for Maxim or FHM or Stuff in an attempt to "recreate herself" and then she will fade into obscurity.

I'm just glad his parents didn't spend it all like Macauley Culkin.
