Harry Potter's Dreams Come True
9 October 2001
Child star Daniel Radcliffe is struggling to believe he is the most envied boy in the world after being cast as the lead in the Harry Potter films. The young Brit, who has previously appeared in The Tailor Of Panama, was so delighted when he heard he had won the much coveted role he didn't believe it was true. Daniel, 12, says, "My dad answered the phone, and a few minutes later told me I was going to play Harry Potter. We all cried. That night I had to wake my dad to ask him if it was a dream." Harry Potter And The Sorceror's Stone is the first of J.K. Rowling's series of books about the much loved wizard, and the film has made Daniel famous in more ways than one - he succeeded in getting his name mentioned in his school assembly. He remembers, "It was only the third time I've been mentioned in assembly. One was bad and the other was scoring a hat-trick for the B team."
