Harry Potter film star Daniel Radcliffe, 16, will become the youngest
non-royal ever to have an individual portrait in England's National
Portrait Gallery, the Irish Examiner newspaper reported.
Radcliffe, who has starred in all four of the Potter movies, was only
14 when he posed for artist Stuart Pearson Wright during a break from
filming the movies based on J.K. Rowling's best-selling books.
"I love it," Radcliffe told the newspaper. "Until recently, I'd seen a
peek of it in the catalogue, but not actually seen the real thing. It
was strange seeing myself as I was two years ago, not as I am now. If
you look at each individual part of my face, they look exactly like
part of my face. Together it's surreal."
The picture of Radcliffe will hang alongside nine other paintings by
Wright, which include portraits of ER star Parminder Nagra,
Oscar-winner Jeremy Irons and Radcliffe's Potter co-star Alan Rickman

Wow, Daniel's face looks like Daniel's face. What are the odds?
