Daniel Radcliffe waltzed his way to popularity as the boy who united the wizarding world against Lord Voldemort, ushering in a new era of peace. He is also famous as the boy who raked in the moolah for playing the titular role of Harry in the Harry Potter franchise. Harry might have used a summoning charm to fill his banks, but his nuanced acting, even as an 11-year-old with enormous glasses and a cursed mark on his forehead, justifies his star power. Since the series finale, the legendary actor has refused to be typecast as a wizarding hero, trying his talents on Broadway and in every movie genre.
Recently, a picture of Radcliffe has cast some sorcery on fans. And the reactions were epic. Earlier, People Magazine posted a scene of the famous actor on its Instagram page, giving netizens the perfect opportunity to spread some hilarity on social media. The image was over the top for some fans.

People Magazine captioned the picture, “Accio Daniel Radcliffe. 👀 🪄 The actor looked ab-solutely pec-tacular in the series finale of his TBS comedy #MiracleWorkers, in which he plays Sid, a Mad Max-styled post-apocalyptic warrior who battles robots and villains in a wasteland.” The wordplay drew the attention of fans to his six-pack abs and pectoral muscles.
It’s as if the highest-paid teenager ($100 million) had a bountiful source of acting prowess. At 34 years of age, Radcliffe still stupefies internet users. The comments uproariously attest to the superiority of the “Woman in Black” hero. They joined in on the joke through their creative comments about his musculature.
From wizard to superhero, fans could not believe their eyes
In the Harry Potter movies, Radcliffe was a lanky boy, underfed by his aunt, while his cousin ballooned to massive proportions. However, in real life, the actor worked hard to achieve a ripped persona for his role as a fighter in the fourth season of “Miracle Workers” which streamed in 2023. This time, Potter has moved from Hogwarts to the wastelands of ‘Boomtown. Looking at the picture of the battle-ready hero, one subscriber thought he looked like a superhero. They asked, “Tell me this isn’t Wolverine. 🙌🏻”
Another netizen commented, “The boy who lifts.” Similarly, a bodybuilding fan penned, ” Always in the buff 😂.” A follower added, “He been drinking Hagrid polyjuice potion again, caught him mid transformation.” Another follower appreciated the series by saying, “This installment of Miracle Workers is hilarious, definitely worth the watch! And this scene was amazing!” Finally, someone said what many consider genuine. They added, “He is a true actor. I think that he has proven that he can and will go beyond.”
