"Tokyo Vice" adds another credit to a growing list of impressive upcoming projects for the "Harry Potter" alum. "Kill Your Darlings" pretty much killed at Sundance this year, with Radcliffe earning much of the praise himself.

He also recently wrapped on "The F Word" and "Horns," a fantastical thriller where he'll play a rock star who literally grows horns out of his forehead. Radclilffe is also attached to "Frankenstein," a new take on the Mary Shelley story from the writer of "Chronicle."
