The name Daniel Radcliffe is synonymous with Harry Potter. While it has been many years since Daniel last played the character of Harry, he is still popularly known for playing the titular role in the hit franchise. Over the years though, the British actor has worked in many other movies apart from the Harry Potter franchise.

Incidentally, a few of them have not gone well with the audience as it was initially difficult to accept him as someone else other than Harry.

Even then he has done some amazing works in movies that need to be appreciated. On his 34th birthday today, know about the 5 best Daniel Radcliffe movies that do not belong to the Potter franchise.

Swiss Army Man (2016)

It has been one of the most challenging roles for Daniel Radcliffe and he was successful in adding the required inquisitiveness, thoughtfulness, and liveliness to the character of Paul Dano who embarks on a journey of self-discovery after receiving unexpected guidance. Dano is trapped with a dead man on an island who slowly gains the power to speak as the friendship between the dead corpse and Dano grows.

Lost in London (2017)

Daniel Radcliffe has a very short role in Lost in London but with his acting he certainly makes his presence felt in this movie made by the first-time filmmaker Woody Harrelson. It was the first feature-length film that was broadcast live and was a great experience for everyone as the entire crew, cast, and production filmed and broadcast it at the same time.

Trainwreck (2015)

Daniel plays a good role though not a very huge one in this R-rated comedy and he is certainly part of some best comedy moments in the movie. The best thing about this movie for Potter fans is that it gives Radcliffe a chance to showcase his adventurous artistic side as well as some comedy chops that establish him as a versatile actor.

What If (2014)

Daniel fans get to see their favourite actor showcasing some winning chemistry with Zoe Kazan in What If. The movie belongs to the romantic genre and is highly likable, endearing, sweet, and funny, and a must for those who love to watch movies in lovelorn categories.

The Woman in Black (2012)

With this film, Daniel Radcliffe entered into the horror genre. The supernatural movie is based on the novel by the same name written by Susan Hill published in 1983. While the role required Daniel to be a bit older but he still managed to give a compelling performance in The Woman in Black.
