Following the string of casting rumours for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has actually been something of an experience in itself.
With the Multiverse opening up the potential for familiar faces to reprise iconic roles from other Marvel movies – even outside of the MCU – it was inevitable that some wild ideas would be spitballed around online.
Fortunately, the latest Phase Four instalment has landed and the answers we seek have arrived along with it.
Directed by Sam Raimi, the trailers have teased some thrilling cameos, but audiences have been somewhat fixated on rumours of a certain Harry Potter star playing Wolverine. So, is Daniel Radcliffe in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness?

‘It’s just fan theory at the moment’
The likes of Andrew Garfield denied their involvement in Spider-Man: No Way Home before its release, so many were sceptical when Daniel Radcliffe weighed in on the casting rumours.
While appearing on Good Morning Britain, the actor explained:
“That’s a very flattering mockup someone’s done. I keep getting asked about it and I always try to say, ‘No, it’s not happening. It’s just a Twitter rumour.’ But everyone just keeps taking that as confirmation. It’s just fan theory at the moment. I welcome the comparison. Who wouldn’t like to be compared to Hugh Jackman.”
However, he did add that he would “never say never… But then it always sounds like I’m inviting it. I’m sure Marvel is watching it like, ‘We’re not thinking about you dude. Don’t ask us.’”
