Daniel Radcliffe denied participation in Deadpool 3 as Wolverine - on a lie detector
Miscellaneous / / October 19, 2023
The actor also said that he Googles himself and reads fan fiction.
In a new video on the Vanity Fair YouTube channel, actor Daniel Radcliffe along with his colleagues Jonathan Groff (“Mindhunter”) and Lindsay Mendez (“Everybody Stand”) were subjected to an unusual interview. One of the participants was wearing polygraph sensors (it is also called a lie detector, although in practice it's more of a stress detector), after which the other two actors asked him questions.
Radcliffe was the first to volunteer, and one of the questions was devoted to the recent hearing about his participation in Deadpool 3 as an alternative Wolverine - after the actor showed excellent physical shape in the fourth season of Miracle Workers in a scene where his hero was shirtless. Here's what he said when asked about his involvement in these rumors:
No. I actually rocked out because I became obsessed with the idea. You've seen my parents - they are crazy fitness fans, and this apparently rubbed off on me. No Wolverine. I'm flattered by this, but no.

It is noteworthy that Radcliffe did not completely deny participation in the film: insiders spoke of a “secret role" of the actor, and, probably, the media simply missed the specific character when interpreting this leaks.
Also, during an unusual interview, the actor confirmed that he sometimes Googles his name - and even reads fan fiction featuring himself and his characters (albeit out loud and for a TV show). He is also aware that fans often associate Harry Potter, as portrayed by him, with Draco Malfoy, but he has not commented on this in any way.
