Magic millions for Potter boy

He is already a star after playing the world's most famous boy wizard.

Now Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe has another leading role - as Britain's youngest multi-millionaire.

The 14-year-old has made £5million from the first two films of JK Rowling's books - granting him entry to the Sunday Times list of the 100 richest young people.

His fortune will grow even further when the third instalment in the series, The Prisoner Of Azkaban, comes out in June.

Pop Idol runner-up Gareth Gates, 19, and England rugby hero Jonny Wilkinson, 24, are also on the richest young people list, which is separate from the main Rich List.

Gates has earned £4million from a string of hits since appearing on the TV talent show three years ago.

England's World Cup victory has catapulted Wilkinson into the sporting spotlight, earning him £5million from sponsorship deals and his salary from Newcastle Falcons.

Meanwhile, Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich, 37, has been named Britain's richest person, with a fortune of £7.5billion.

The Russian tycoon made his pile from shareholdings in oil, aluminium and pharmaceuticals companies.

He is reportedly the sixth wealthiest person in Europe and the 22nd richest in the world.
