Cast Daniel Radcliffe as Wolverine, says Sandra Bullock
"Wolverine people, can you please just f**king cast him."
Sandra Bullock has weighed in on speculation that her The Lost City co-star Daniel Radcliffe will play Marvel's Wolverine, urging MCU executives to "just f**king cast him".
In a joint interview with It's Gone Viral, the Oscar-winner endorsed the long-rumoured casting, which would see the Harry Potter actor take up the mantle from Hugh Jackman.
Asked about the persistent rumours, Radcliffe joked that news stories casting him as the fan-favourite X-Men character have "been happening to me semi-annually for the last three years".
