However, it is still early to confirm Daniel’s arrival in the Marvel cinematic universe. In 2022, when the rumors that the actor would become Wolverine gained greater strength, Daniel had to come out to deny everything in an interview for GQ magazine, where he also hinted that he did not believe he was capable of committing to so many years with a character like Robert Downey Jr. did with Iron Man or himself with Harry Potter.
“It is merely a rumor. I say something and then I get bored of answering the same thing and say something different, and that makes me start over. She shouldn’t open her mouth. I simply don’t want to get stuck in something that I’m not sure I can love at the same level all the time,” the actor commented at the time.

Radcliffe also considered that the rumors of his transformation into Wolverine were born from a very simple reason: in the comics, Wolverine is short, and compared to the vast majority of Hollywood actors, Daniel is also short.
“This is something that comes up every so often, I think because in the comics Wolverine is short, so sometimes they say, ‘What actor is short?’ It has never been real. From time to time I get bored of answering questions prudently, so I make a joke like the one I made the other day and it has revived the rumors, but nothing is happening,” said the actor who gave life to Harry Potter. for a decade.
A few years ago, when Tom Holland debuted as the new Spiderman, Daniel confessed his love for superhero movies, also stating that he would have loved to play the wall-crawler, but by then, he was too old for the project.

“I would have been a good Spiderman, but the ship has sailed for me, and I’m very happy to see Tom Holland do it. He is fantastic”.
If Ritchman’s rumors are true, a new opportunity to enter superhero movies would be coming for the British actor and everything seems to indicate that his “fear of commitment” with roles of more than a decade has ended.
