In this case, it's Chin Ho Kelly (played by Daniel Dae Kim) whose life hangs in the balance and it falls upon his partners-in-crime-fighting Steve McGarrett (Alex O'Loughlin), Danny Williams (Scott Caan) and Kono Kalakaua (Grace Park) to find a way to get the bomb off without Chin Ho literally losing his head.

That year, Radin's first ever composition "Winter" caught the ear of Zach Braff, who in turn, put in on his series "Scrubs.

As the Harry Potter movie series draws to an end, one thing has become abundantly clear: the films leading trio of wizards-in-training could not have been more perfectly cast.
