Are you ready to feel old? Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone hit theaters an astonishing 13 years ago. The film, which was based on the first novel in J.K. Rowling's fantasy series, introduced us to who would become one of the world's most iconic characters, the titular boy wizard, played by then 11-year-old actor Daniel Radcliffe. The 25-year-old has certainly changed since he first started Hogwarts, and these photos prove it. Check out the 30 photos of a young Radcliffe that will make you nostalgic for the early '00s.
