For 'Potter' star,time to transform

It seems fair to say that Daniel Radcliffe has not grown up quite like any other young star before him, and has not turned out like anyone expected.

Certainly his success in playing the title role in the "Harry Potter" film series, which has grossed more than $6.3 billion worldwide, has yielded unparalleled recognition and astronomical wealth for Mr. Radcliffe. He is said to be earning $20 million to $25 million for each of the last two films.

And he is about to leverage the decade he has spent playing the boy wizard and take on the starring role in a stage revival of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" on Broadway.
