They've starred in the biggest movie franchise of all time. They've grown up before our eyes, maturing from little kids to young adults. But now, with the release of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2," they face the biggest challenge of their developing careers -- life without that Potter magic. So what's in store for these actors?

 

DANIEL RADCLIFFE He's performing eight times a week on Broadway in "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." He also shot the ghost story "The Woman in Black," coming out early next year.

EMMA WATSON The 21-year-old English beauty -- the new face of Lancôme -- next appears in the feature "My Week With Marilyn," playing a wardrobe mistress. She's also filming "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," an adaptation of the Stephen Chbosky novel.

RUPERT GRINT The quirkiest of the bunch, at 22, he has appeared in a handful of indie pictures, completed the World War II survival tale "Comrade" and is set to play Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards in a movie about the hapless British ski jumper.

BONNIE WRIGHT As Ginny Weasley, she won Harry's heart, and at 20, she's already finished "Geography of the Hopeless Heart," appearing in one of the movie's five separate love stories. Next, she shoots "The Philosophers," playing a student at an international school in Indonesia.

TOM FELTON Just three weeks after the last "Potter" opens, the 23-year-old actor, who as Draco Malfoy tormented Harry, will return to the screen in "Rise of the Planet of the Apes." This time, he'll be antagonizing the caged chimpanzees. Beyond that, he stars in the 2012 supernatural horror flick "The Apparition."
