First Look: Harry at Tussauds

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe gets a waxwork at Madame TussaudsThe only surprise is that it took this long.

Daniel Radcliffe, star of the Harry Potter movies, has been immortalised in wax at London's famed Madame Tussaud's.

Dan, who turns 18 on July 23, is the youngest actor to make it to the hallowed gallery.

With the fifth film in the series, Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix readying for release, this would seem part of standard studio buzz -- except Dan isn't wearing wizarding clothes, and is tellingly scar-free.

Radcliffe will stand next to Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts -- almost seems like a celebrity adoption.

Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix hits theatres worldwide on July 13.
