Well, Danny Boy, I guess that about does it. You’ve had a memorable career and I’m sure you’ll continue to do great things. Thanks for reading this Ranking Daniel Radcliffe Movies article, though. It’s been a fun ride (even if some of these movies weren’t all that good). Thank you for entertaining me for the past 16 years. And here’s hoping you finish your next film with a flourish and pour another drink out for Alan Rickman as well.
