A role that slipped away
Radcliffe, Watson and Grint were offered roles in a remake of The Wizard of Oz, and they all turned it down. Radcliffe said he was 14 or 15 and thought it was a bad idea that should not be made.
First role
Radcliffe's first stage work came in 2002, when he was a celebrity guest in a West End staging of The Play What I Wrote. Kenneth Branagh directed it and had also been in the second Harry Potter film with him.
Getting ready for a role
Radcliffe researched his part as a determined young fact checker in the Broadway comedy The Lifespan of a Fact by spending a day in The New Yorker's fact checking department.
