Daniel Radcliffe for Esquire UK Magazine

Posted on Feb 6, 2012 in Fashion

Looks like Danny Boy’s little Hammer Horror movie did quite well over the weekend, which means you can expect a lot of “Harry Who?”-style profiles down the line. Still, good for him. Every child star had a hard time transitioning to adult roles and most of them didn’t make it at all. But Daniel may have had the absolute hardest row to hoe because no child star ever started out their career by becoming an icon to an entire generation, and in over a decade’s worth of films. Forget child stars, that’s tough for any actor to get past.

As for these pictures, sometimes we think he needs to dial down the intensity just a bit, but for the most part, we like them. He’s styled well (if a little safely) and he knows how to work a camera.

Daniel Radcliffe featured in the March 2012 issue of Esquire UK magazine photographed by Yu Tsai and styled by Catherine Hayward.

I always say about Daniel Radcliffe, “Oh, he’s so cute!” Or something along those lines.

What I like most about this editorial is that it makes it clear that “cute” is no longer appropriate. Just as the cover promised, he has, indeed, manned up. I like his hair like that too.
- Anonymous
  
  Agreed. This is the first time I’ve ever seen him look like an adult. I think it doesn’t help that his smile is very boyish, and he is usually smiling in the r.c./premiere pix (not that smiling’s a bad thing!) The clothes are also more “man” clothes/tailoring/something than I usually see on him, too.
  - Anonymous
    
    Good point about his boyish smile. You’re absolutely right.
http://www.facebook.com/people/Patrick-Cleary/1201575213 Patrick Cleary

He’s also a very small man, and smaller men sometimes feel like they have to make up for it by being WAY TOO INTENSE. At least, a couple of my ex-boyfriends seemed to follow that theory.

  Funny, all my WAY TOO INTENSE ex-boyfriends were over six feet. The chill ones were the short ones.

    Hee. Maybe it’s the ex- part that makes the ex-boyfriends WAY TOO INTENSE?!

  Junior high/middle school often gives smaller guys extreme motivation for cultivating an intense demeanor, that is, if they can’t manage border-line psycho threatening.

  I actually think the Harry Potter character having glasses is going to help him with the transition to adult roles, now that you mention it. It makes it harder to associate the actor with that character without the glasses.
  - Anonymous
    
    I never thought of that as a specific help to him, but I think you are exactly right. But it’s not so drastic a change that he loses his familiarity (Jennifer Grey, post-nosejob being a famous example).

Knows how to work the square jaw. And the hair is reminding me of his past co-star Robert Pattinson’s. I don’t know if he can turn off the intensity– maybe it’s just a function of eyebrow thickness? Plus jaw tension? All in all, looking great. Not over or under styled IMHO.

Shirley temple would argue with your icon point. Judy Garland too. IS that a FLY on his shirt (cover shot)? He’s looking pretty smart in these – You go little guy!

  I was wondering if it’s an ink blot.
- http://www.facebook.com/mary.nease Mary Nease
  
  To my generation who grew up reading Harry Potter as kids and into our adolescence and don’t remember our lives without Harry Potter, he has become something of an icon, or in the least, the physical representation of an icon.
- Anonymous
  
  Judy didn’t start her acting life as an iconic figure, although she ended it that way. And Shirley Temple’s last movie role, according to IMDb anyway, was in 1949, when she was 21. So she may have started out as an icon, but the transition to adult roles was apparently trickier for her. (The ones he should really want to emulate are Jodie Foster and the creme de la creme: Elizabeth Taylor.)
  
  That said, we obviously can’t say yet one way or another what DanRad’s career will be like post-Potter. I hope it goes a little more Harrison Ford and a little less Mark Hamill. Or, he could follow his H2$ predecessor Matthew Broderick and always be one role (save Ferris!) to a given generation but still work consistently and successfully in theatre and smaller-budget films. Seems from his interviews that he’d be fine with that.

He’s a cutie and the new movie wasn’t bad. The taxi shot is good and also the coffee cup shows a little levity…

  OMG, you just made Nerds everywhere spontaneously orgasm at the thought. GGGGGGhhhhhhhhhhhhhrrrrrr.
  
  Also, i have to give old DanRad credit for the relatively poised transition he has made into adulthood. Famous at 10, making impassioned and thoughtful PSA’s for the Trevor Project at 19? I can’t think of one good reason to wish anything but success for him. With statements like this:
  
  “Don’t define yourself by your sexuality, don’t define as straight or gay, define yourself as people and help another person if they’re in trouble. The ultimate reason gay marriage should be legalized everywhere is because, as a kid, you look to your mum and dad and they’re married, then you look at the gay couple who’ve been together for the same amount of time, but because they can’t get married their relationship doesn’t seem the same. Yes, gay marriage is about symbolically blessing a relationship, but the larger issue is about transmitting a fundamental message about equality. Gay people should have equality in law everywhere. If you grow up as a young gay man knowing you dont’ have the same opportuniteies as everyone else, you’re going to feel victimised and massive prejudice towards you.”

It has to be pretty hard to dial back the intensity once you have battled the Dark Lord….

These are really good shots. I especially like that last one, in the beige sweater and pants.

He has been very smart in his non-Potter roles. Doing theater was a good move. He was also fortunate in that his Potter character grew up by 7 years during the series. He didn’t have a career as child actor prior to that.

I’m rooting for him to have a happy and long career. I’ve loved every interview I’ve ever read with him.
- Elaine Lang
  
  That’s an interesting insight…The Potter child actors do have the benefit of the fact that their first defining roles were WRITTEN as a dramatic depiction of growing up…The whole point of the series was reaching adulthood in a conscious, real way…so there is less pressure on the actors to ‘be a kid forever” when JK Rowling wrote the characters as people who actually changed and evolved into adulthood.

Sometimes he looks a little too hobbit-y for my taste but good lord that cover shot made me gasp. Those EYES!

If only he used more than one facial expression while actually acting in films… his acting in the Potter films was always atrocious, but Woman in Black wasn’t bad. Decent ghost story.
- Anonymous
  
  I always felt he was hamstrung in those films by what the adults around him wanted. I think the grown-ups felt too sorry for Harry. David Heyman (producer) wanted to cast him because he had “haunted” eyes. But to me, one of the great things about Harry in the early books at least
  was how funny and cheerful and adventurous he was – despite the unwanted fame and the dead parents and everything life at Hogwarts was *aweseome* and he was thrilled to be there. I wish they’d let DanRad play that up a bit more, especially since the kid is apparently bubbly as fuck in real life.
  - http://www.celestiae.net Isy
    
    Seriously. Harry was sarcastic as hell in the books and I so missed that in the movies. We only got glimpses of that, when Harry’s sense of the absurd was so off the chart that he was wise cracking even when he knew he’d be punished for it.

Hopefully he’ll turn out to be the British Ron Howard and continue to be super successful as an adult actor. Good thing he already got his “troubled” phase out of the way with that drinking problem he used to have.

It’s not really that rare anymore for child actors to make a successful transition to adult actor. I never liked Daniel as Harry Potter (In fact, I thought all of the kids were miscast except Draco and Neville.), and I haven’t seen him in any non-HP roles. He seems likeable enough in interviews though so I hope he continues to do well.

He could burst into ‘hot’ any minute now.

  It’s funny, he’s neither as hot as I thought he would be when he was 11, nor as homely as I thought he would be when he was going through his awkward teen phase. I think he has the potential to age quite well, though, given his bone structure. Cheekbones and (esp) jawlines like that help when everything else starts to sag.

He looks fabulous! I don’t mind the intensity at all – smoke ‘em if ya got ‘em, you know? It works for him, and he should use it. As for the styling, he looks great! It really is nice to see a child star headed in the right direction – same can be said for Emma Watson. Wonder if Rupert Grint will get it together soon?

I very much enjoyed Woman in Black, an old-fashioned Gothic ghost story that relies on atmosphere, rather than gore, for the chills. Young Mr.Radcliffe looked quite handsome in the film, period clothes suit him very well. I did not think of Harry Potter once.

He looks great in this spread. I like his intensity, it seems a genuine part of his personality and not an affectation. I hope he continues to do well for himself.

That second from last shot is the absolute best angle I’ve ever seen for his face. I think he frequently tends to tilt his chin down to increase the “intensity” of his gaze, but keeping it up dials down the “intensity” of his browbone/eyebrows and brings more emphasis to his very nice bone structure (cheekbones and chin). I never thought of him as having a manly face, but now I can see how it will develop.

Ummm in the cover picture, it looks like he has a spider on his shirt and it’s kind of freaking me out… Otherwise, he looks good – surprisingly good. Though I don’t think I’ll ever be able to see him as anything other than Harry. Kind of like how I can’t see Ashton Kutcher as anything but Kelso.

He has turned into a very dishy young man. I heard him interviewed on CBC last week and he is quite articulate and level headed, which is amazing considering all of the attention he receives.

  And money. He could just seat home counting his millions or put them up his nose, but he just seems to be amazingly level headed about his life and career. His parents should raise child actors for a living. I also agree with serenitynow02 above. Woman in Black is a nice old fashioned thriller. He is great in it. He has all those scenes where is just him alone, reacting, no dialogue. And he does a great job with that. I hope he keeps on growing as an actor. Who knows?

So happy for him! He looks great here! I’d been cringing at the somewhat extended awkward phase he was in. . . for so long. . .

I’ve never found him sexy before, but he looks FINE in that cover pic and pretty damn hot (albeit intense) in the next one too.

He’s very cute, but the boy needs to eat a damn sandwich. I feel like I can see his ribs through a suit, and that’s a problem. It also seems like he’s styled a bit too old. He’s only 22, but he’s dressed like George Clooney.
