Having conquered Broadway musicals and starred in the year’s top-grossing movie, Daniel Radcliffe now has a new title: Entertainment Weekly’s Entertainer of the Year for 2011. The announcement was made on the December 7 edition of Good Morning America by EW managing editor Jess Cagle.

“Ultimately there was one person who made the most sense,” Cagle said of the 22-year-old triple threat. “There’s nothing he can’t do. He’s really interested in doing the work. Despite all his wealth and fame as a teenager, he never derailed.”

For  most of 2011 Daniel as starring as J. Pierrepont Finch in the hit revival of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. His final Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2, grossed more than $380 million after opening this summer. Radcliffe is set to depart Broadway on January 1, just before the film thriller The Woman in Black opens.

Pop singer Adele was runner-up for EW’s Entertainer of the Year. Also making the list: Hugh Jackman, Tony winner Viola Davis and Book of Mormon creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker.
