10. Daniel Radcliffe
The problem with Radcliffe getting the role of Harry Potter at the tender age of 11 is that his poor acting ability was apparently forgiven due to his inexperience. Go and rewatch Philosophers Stone and youll see a magical little boy who looks like hes
made of cardboard. It begs the question; in that worldwide search of thousands of boys, was Radcliffe really the only suitable option? Was he the lesser of many evils? It's hard to believe. Perhaps the casting directors at the time were simply blinded by the young Radcliffes resemblance to the character. As is sometimes the case with child actors, puberty kicks in and they get real awkward, real fast. Just look at Ellar Coltrane in Boyhood, where you can literally watch it play out step by step. Such was the case with Radcliffe, who only grew more stiff as the years went by. Yet he continued to have a career post-Potter, because of his worldwide name recognition and brand appeal. Bizarrely, he does seem to be a more natural actor when affecting an American accent, for whatever that's worth.
