English actor Harry Melling was only 12 years old when he landed the small role as the muggle cousin Dudley Dursley — who makes home life hard for Harry Potter before he starts his magical schooling at Hogwarts — in the 2001 fantasy film “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.”
Melling continued to be included in the ‘Potter’ series … photographed above in “Harry Potter and and the Prisoner of Azkaban” … and shared the big-screen with A-listers like Rupert Grint as the school BFF, Ron Weasley, Emma Watson as the quick-thinking, Hermione Granger … and of course Daniel Radcliffe as the magical young man, Harry Potter.
Harry made a resurgence in the streaming world when he was cast as the chess mate Harry Beltik in “The Queen’s Gambit” last year.
