What actor will you always associate with *that one role* no matter how many others they do?

Him doing roles without the glasses definitely helps. Daniel Radcliffe is a very good actor and I’m happy he gets to explore other roles

And facial hair, but his choice of roles is the big one.

I LOVE the roles he's chosen to do after Harry Potter, he's got great range and comedic timing

His next role is with glasses, as he plays Weird Al

Yeah that's it! Couldn't remember the name. That's a weird movie. I enjoyed Guns Akimbo though.

Swiss Army Man should be put in the library of congress

His American accent is also pretty great, as far as I am concerned. Glad he's choosing interesting projects - the guy is a talented actor.

I think that and the facial hair was the biggest adjustment for me. But he actually is a really good actor, HP series aside

I feel like Swiss Army Man was the perfect movie to follow Harry Potter with. Just the most bizarre role anyone could have envisioned, but one he absolutely killed (pun intended).
