Daniel Radcliffe Could Have Been Back on a Broom…
… but not in the role you would think!
Of course, we’re used to him soaring around as the youngest Quidditch Seeker Hogwarts has seen in over a century, but apparently, he wanted to be in a recent film flying with – sharks?
That’s right. Apparently, Daniel Radcliffe wanted to be in the recent movie Sharknado 3. Anthony Ferrante, Director of the third film in the quickly becoming cult-classic franchise, recently did a Twitter Q&A and revealed that there were plans to have Dan riding a broom at the park in the movie, something he said would be “epic!” Thanks to our friend Banks at Orlando Attractions Magazine for cluing us in.
@BanksLee @UniversalORL We got all the major gags, though Daniel Radcliffe said he wanted to be in the movie, so we had a plan for him …

@BanksLee @UniversalORL to be someone at the park who rides on a broom. That would have been epic!

Further speculation tends to believe that Dan would’ve played a janitor in the park and would ride away on his broom into the storm. It would have been nice to see Dan back in action on a broom – maybe they could have thrown in a Snitch for him to chase? Maybe a Snitch with shark teeth or a golden-winged shark!
