Stars Who Were Almost Cast In Harry Potter

It’s been 20 years since the first “Harry Potter” movie hit theaters, and it’d be hard to imagine a reality where the franchise didn’t exist. J.K. Rowling’s world of wizardry has been a huge part of many kids’ lives, and it’s impossible to think of Harry Potter without immediately seeing a young Daniel Radcliffe, or Professor Snape without Alan Rickman. But what if those iconic characters had been played by someone else? What would Mr. Bean’s take on He Who Must Not Be Named have been like? Let’s take a look at the stars who were almost cast in Harry Potter. #HarryPotter #JKRowling #DanielRadcliffe Liam Aiken | 0:00 Robin Williams | 1:18 Christopher Lee | 2:30 Ian McKellen | 3:52 Sean Connery | 5:13 Tim Roth | 6:26 J.K.
