When Daniel Radcliffe was only five years old, he made one of the biggest decisions of his entire life. Radcliffe signed on to play Harry Potter in the new film franchise.
When the production started in 2000 with Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, Radcliffe earned “$145,000. By the second movie, he had already increased to $3 million for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. This was then doubled to around $6 million in exchange for starring in the third film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
VENICE, ITALY – SEPTEMBER 01: Daniel Radcliffe arrives for film Kill Your Darlings of the register John Krokidas during the 70th Venice Film Festival on September 01, 2013 in Venice, Italy (Matteo Chinellato / Shutterstock.com)
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire raised him to $11 million. By the fifth film Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix , Radcliffe’s contract went up to a hefty $14 million. The final novel of the series, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows (2007), was divided into a two-part movie adaptation released in 2010 and 2011, coming out to around $20 million each for Radcliffe.
Currently, Daniel Radcliffe is worth around $110 million dollars. However, since the major motion picture, Radcliffe has stepped out of the limelight and has worked on smaller productions.
At the end of the day it goes to show you that one decision can have a major impact on the rest of your life and while there are thousands of struggling actors, a single acting job can take you from sleeping on the roof of your friend’s apartment to living in the most expensive homes in California.
Here’s every TV show that was either canceled or renewed this year.
2016 was a huge year for television. The Walking Dead shocked and awed audiences with an insane season finale, Daredevil returned to Netflix with a bang, and then Game of Thrones rewrote history with new and interesting storylines. On top of all of that The CW renewed nearly all of their shoes, while CBS canceled nearly all of theirs.
So what can we expect from the remaining six months of 2016 and into 2017? Well, there is quite a lot. In fact, many popular TV shows have been renewed, while many others were canceled. Here’s a great list and please feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.

The weather in Atlanta has consistently been around 90 degrees all summer and Atlanta is about to get even hotter as, Channing Tatum is headed to the ATL to film his new movie.
According to reports, Channing Tatum is teaming up with James Bond’s Daniel Craig and legendary director Steven Soderbergh for Logan Lucky.

The film’s plot revolves around a heist at Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina during a NASCAR Sprint Cup race. Think of it as something of a cross between Days of Thunder and Ocean’s Eleven.

According to Variety, Soderbergh, who has just finished working on TV shows like The Knick and The Girlfriend Experience, fell in love with the movie’s script and personally chose to work with Tatum after casting him in the hit thriller Side Effects, the stripper comedy Magic Mike and Haywire.
Soderbergh, who won the best director Oscar for “Traffic” in 2000, will most likely return to TV after working on this feature film in Atlanta, Georgia as he prepares to move forward with a third season of The Knick as well as his HBO TV pilot Mosaic starring Sharon Stone.

Stay tuned for casting calls, acting jobs, and entertainment news for Logan Lucky.
Michael Shannon pushes for actors not to work for free on independent movies
Michael Shannon is sick and tired of seeing actors who make indie feature films not getting paid enough to survive. The Midnight Special actor talked about the issue at a recent screening for a new movie called Complete Unknown, starring Rachel Weisz, Kathy Bates and Danny Glover, which is, indeed, an indie, and pointed out that a lot of the time, actors who appear in such small feature films are pressured to work for free.
Berlin, Germany – February 12, 2016 – Kirsten Dunst, Joel Edgerton, Michael Shannon, Jaeden Lieberher and Jeff Nichols attend the ‘Midnight Special’ premiere during the 66th Berlinale Film Festival (taniavolobueva / Shutterstock.com)
“It tends to be the model these days,” Shannon answered when asked if too many great actors willing to work for almost nothing if offered a great script, according to Variety.
“I think as a group actors need to stop enabling this behavior. There’s no reason it should be that way. If somebody’s got a good script and you want to put good actors in it then everybody should be taken care of. We’re not asking for millions and millions of dollars. It’s gone too far in the other direction really. If it was just me I wouldn’t care. I probably would do it for free. But I have a family.”
Shannon, who earned himself an Oscar nomination for 2008’s Revolutionary Road, seems to understand what it’s like to work as a struggling actor. His biggest role was in Man of Steel but, if you look at his IMDB resume, you can see a long list of independent projects illustrating his knowledge and experience of being a struggling actor.

Are you looking for your next audition? Angela Boehm Casting is now casting lead, supporting and day player roles for the new feature film My Friend Dahmer. Casting directors are casting principal roles. Filming will take place in Akron, Ohio.
About My Friend Dahmer:
My Friend Dahmer, written by two-time Eisner award nominee Derf Backderf, is headed to the big screen. The title is an autobiographical graphic novel that follows Jeffrey Dahmer from age 12, when he was a shy, bespectacled kid, right up to the day he kills his first victim two weeks after high school graduation.
Set in the bizarre world of 1970s suburbia, Jeff Dahmer, a troubled teenager, descends into darkness as his divorcing parents, high school teachers, and peers stand by and do nothing. Told through the eyes of his friend Derf, this is a touching, realistic look at some oddball teens trying to find their identities in the tumultuous 1970’s.
Although there are macabre elements to this story, this will be less a horror film and more a coming-of-age tale of teenagers teetering on the abyss… WELCOME TO THE DOLLHOUSE meets DAZED AND CONFUSED by way of HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER.

GhostbustersReboot toys and merchandise is already on clearance.
Ghostbusters makes its long-awaited return, rebooted with a cast of hilarious new characters. 30 years after the beloved original franchise took the world by storm, director Paul Feig brings his fresh take to the supernatural comedy, joined by some of the funniest actors working today – Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones, and Chris Hemsworth. This summer, they’re here to save the world.
However, Ghostbusters reboot is hitting theaters with a loud cloud of controversy. While the cast and crew might not be afraid of no ghosts, it seems the fans of the show are really not interested in the Ghostbusters movie.
A user on Twitter (via flyckering myth) posted a pic of a Ghostbusters reboot action figure at a retail store already on clearance, and the movie hasn’t even come out.
Ghostbusters hits theaters next week and we will have to wait and see how other critics and fans treat the new movie.
“Ghostbusters” is directed by Paul Feig starring Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones, Charles Dance and Michael Kenneth Williams.
The X-men spinoff film starring Channing Tatum was supposed to start filming earlier this year but, after casting controversies and rumors that the movie’s director wanted to fire Channing Tatum, filming will not start until 2017.
According to producer Simon Kindberg, the movie, which will feature Channing Tatum as a superhero, is still in pre-production.
“We have a great script on that and hope to shoot that movie at the beginning of spring of next year,” Kindberg told The Hashtag Show in a short interview.
As for the real reason why production was delayed for almost an entire year? According to Comic Book Resources, the reason for the delay was the script, which Kindberg felt wasn’t ready for filming. Back in May, he said that, “there was a moment where we were going to shoot the movie at the beginning of this year, and then we felt it just wasn’t ready.”
We will have to wait and see if Gambit will actually work out to becoming a great movie, especially with Channing Tatum, who hasn’t had a hit movie outside of 22 Jump Street and Magic Mike.
