    He has most definitely not been Harry Potter since Guns Akimbo. Radcliff in Guns Akimbo

      Lesson to other actors: if you don’t want to be typecast, pick the wildest, most batshit crazy role you can find, and then do that a few more times.

        Just don’t go Adrian Brody levels of batshit crazy. The SNL rasta bit was a step too far.

      That movie is fucking bat shit insane. It’s glorious.

        If you like that, check out Swiss Army Man. It’s by the same directors of Everything, Everywhere All At Once, and it’s fantastic.

      Or that Snake Oil bit in Miracle Workers. I don’t know if I’ll ever hear the Six White Horses bit normally again

      We got super ripped and watched this during Covid. It certainly is… A movie

    I love how he’s just been going ‘fuckit, got my money’ and doing the weirdest shit possible. Horns was great

  • PlasticExistence@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    He was great as Weird Al

      I didn’t even know it was a thing: en.wikipedia.org/…/Weird:_The_Al_Yankovic_Story

        It only initially released on Roku’s streaming service, but I think it’s available elsewhere now.

        It is NOT meant to be historically accurate, which makes it funnier IMO.

      The camera work to make Daniel look shorter than he actually is, was such a nice touch.

    I appreciate what he’s doing. He has enough harry potter money to never have to work his entire life, so he picks and chooses films that are interesting to him instead of just going after the paycheck.

    Swiss army man, guns akimbo are both amazing films. Never watched harry potter though

      Imperium was very interesting. He plays an undercover fed in a US white supremacists/neo nazi group. Quite the change of pace.

      Swiss army man was brilliant. My favorite of his performances as an adult

        Check him out in Miracle Workers. Preferably only season 1 & 2, the rest of them are very odd and not so good. The most recent season (the meh one) he does have a drag scene, though.

    I’ve watched all four seasons of Miracle Workers. He’s pretty funny in all of them.

      She’ll be comin’ round the mountain was a joy

    Ive definitely been enjoying his post-Potter work. When I see his name on a new movie it goes on my watch list pretty quick.

    A Young Doctor’s Notebook was a really clever dark comedy.

  • southsamurai@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    He’s a brilliant actor, and he picks his roles well. I haven’t seen anything he’s been in that I didn’t like. And I’ve loved his performance in all of it. The guy is setting himself up to be life of the greats out acting history eventually.

    I haven’t gotten to see season 4 yet, but he’s been great in Miracle Workers.

    It’s a seasonal anthology comedy. So each season follows a storyline, and then the next season is the same cast, but with a completely unrelated setting and story.

    • Thassodar@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Seasons 1 & 2 were amazing, after that it became too absurd and not very funny anymore.

  • Hule@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I’ve seen Jungle. I liked it.

    Nope.

      Yup!
