There are a few debates that never really die online, and ranking the Harry Potter movies is definitely one of them. Everyone has a favorite, everyone has a least favorite, and somehow no two lists ever look exactly the same. It’s part of the fun, especially now that enough time has passed for people to revisit the series with fresh eyes. What I didn’t expect was franchise star Daniel Radcliffe jumping into that conversation himself and just going for it, but hey, he’s 100% right about the best across all the movies in the Wizarding World franchise.
During a recent live taping of the Happy Sad Confused podcast hosted by Josh Horowitz, Radcliffe took some time from his busy 2026 movie schedule to rank the beloved series of movies on the spot. The moment was shared via the show’s Instagram account (see below), and it is as hilarious as it is correct.
