This is not a Daily Shock because it’s hard to believe Daniel Radcliffe is one of the biggest entertainers of the year–far from it; it’s well known that he has made his name in Hollywood and theater aside from being Harry Potter–this news that I’ll expound on below is a Daily Shock because it’s good to see Radcliffe get recognized for all of his hard work.

Entertainment Weekly’s latest issue, the “Entertainers of the Year” issue, has our favorite Boy Who Lived on the cover, covered in confetti and looking dapper in a smart suit and tie. It’s not wonder why he’s on the cover; he’s made people cry in the two-parter “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” made us laugh and smile with glee as J. Pierpont Finch in the Broadway revival of the high-stepping musical “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,” and will hopefully thrill us in February’s thriller/horror film “The Woman in Black.” You can read more about the issue here, and you can check out the issue of Entertainment Weekly in stores Dec. 9 as well as on most tablets (a new feature starting this week).

“The Woman in Black” stars Radcliffe as a lawyer who travels to a village where the ghost of a scorned woman is terrorizing the locals. You can watch the teaser trailer below the post, and for more about the film, check out the viral site WhatDidTheySee.com as well as the film’s Facebook page. “The Woman in Black” comes to theaters Feb. 3.
