Daniel Radcliffe has shut down the rumors he'll take over playing Wolverine in the MCU. The Harry Potter star made this revelation during a recent interview with GQ.
Following Hugh Jackman's exit from the role in the 2017 film Logan, rumors have been rife that Radcliffe will be cast as the character. However, the 33-year-old has denied any and all talks with respect to Wolverine and has more or less declared that he is not interested, stating that he does not want to "get locked into something that I am not sure I will be able to love the same amount the whole time." He also admitted that he is partially responsible for the rumors as he has, out of boredom, said things that set them off.
In Radcliffe's words, "It's purely a press tour rumor; I say something, and then occasionally I get bored of answering that way so I say something different, and that sets it off again. I should just never open my mouth."
Radcliffe's interview with GQ is not the first time he will address these rumors. Earlier in the year, the diminutive actor said the same thing about the rumors on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. He also granted an interview to The View during a promotional tour for a film.
