9 Actors Who Can’t Be Defined by Their Early Roles

Whenever we think of Daniel Radcliffe the first thing that comes to mind is the young wizard entering Hogwarts School. The same happens when we think of Robert Pattinson: it is inevitable to think of the image of a vampire. This usually happens with actors who have been very successful and who have played very remarkable characters in the cinema. However, despite this immediate association, they managed to get rid of the “curse” of the first success and created brilliant careers in the film industry.

Today the awesome.club invites you to remember the actors who managed to leave the stigma of the first role behind and created fascinating careers in Hollywood.

Daniel Radcliffe and other young actors from the cast of Harry Potter grew up in front of us. After the huge success of the franchise, Daniel tried very hard to get as far away from the character that launched him as possible and thus managed to prove that not only is he a lot of talent, he is also very versatile.

His career includes alternative and experimental films. Among them, stand out Verses of a Crimein which he plays the poet Allen Ginsberg, and A corpse to survive, in which he plays a rather strange character: a corpse that constantly farts. That’s right, you read that right. Despite being strange, the film received good reviews.

Jake Gyllenhaal has always been considered a beloved oddball in Hollywood because of the characters he played. One of the most outstanding roles was the protagonist of the film Donnie Darko, a rather strange character in a film that is also quite controversial.

These days he plays characters that could be described at the very least as “weird”. Some are more mysterious, like in the movies Duplicate Man, Zodiac, Nocturnal Animals, and others are almost fun psychopaths, like in the movies The Vulture, Demolition, Spider-Man: Far From Home🇧🇷

Robert Pattinson is another example of an actor who decided to play controversial and strange roles to distance himself as much as possible from Cedric Diggory, from Harry Potter, and the vampire of Twilight🇧🇷 That’s why most of your projects are controversial and quite challenging. A good example is the recent The headlight🇧🇷 About the role, the actor said the following: “I just want to do something weird”, and admitted that he accepted the role as soon as he read the script. And he took the opportunity to complete: “I’m going to have a nice mustache”.

He will also play Bruce Wayne in the upcoming movie batmanwhich promises to be special, otherwise the actor would not have accepted it.

Elijah Wood’s career peaked with Lord of the Rings🇧🇷 From the success of the trilogy, the actor decided to vary his choices more and embarked on very different projects.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt started out playing small roles in comedy series such as 3rd Rock from the Sunand in romantic comedies such as 10 Things I Hate About You🇧🇷 Since then, he has shown a lot of versatility in more alternative and even dramatic films, such as 50% and Mysteries of the Fleshin addition to major box office hits such as The origin and Batman the Dark Knight Rises🇧🇷 And we couldn’t help but mention (500 days with hera very intelligent film that presents a relationship very different from those we are used to seeing in romantic comedies.

After the great success of Harry Potter, Emma Watson went on to play more mature roles and proved that she is indeed a good actress. her work in The advantages of being invisible was highly praised and has nothing to do with Hermione. However, unlike Daniel Radcliffe, she still continues to participate in major blockbusters such as remake in live action in Beauty and the Beast🇧🇷

Emma is known to be very strict in her choice of roles and generally prefers feminist and progressive stories, such as the recent adaptation of lovely women🇧🇷

Selena Gomez is the face of disney channel and has successes such as Zack & Cody: Twins in Action🇧🇷 hannah montana and Wizards of Waverly Place🇧🇷 After the end of the last one, she decided to leave the Disney bubble a little and faced more adult and also controversial roles, as in Anything to Stay with Her and Spring Breakers: Dangerous Girls.

Selena Gomez also started to stand out as a good voice actress: she voiced a vampire in the franchise Hotel Transylvania and also participated in Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard and Arthur 3: The War of the Two Worlds🇧🇷

Perhaps Ezra Miller’s two greatest successes are drama The advantages of being invisible and psychological drama We Need to Talk About Kevin🇧🇷 While the first is a powerful coming-of-age story, the second is a thriller that explores the relationship between mother and child.

In recent years, Ezra’s career has taken off and he has appeared in superhero films such as Justice League and The Flash, and the franchise Fantastic Beasts🇧🇷

Anne Hathaway played many innocent roles in Disney movies such as Princess’ diary🇧🇷 These films are part of her history and helped the actress to conquer her space in the film industry. Her curriculum includes a wide range of successes, including The Devil Wears Prada, Alice in Wonderland (by Tim Burton), the box office hit Batman the Dark Knight Risesscience fiction drama Interstellar and Eight Women and a Secret🇧🇷
