Radcliffe Embraces a 30 Rock–Inspired Comeback in The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins

Daniel Radcliffe talks to ComicBook.com about his NBC comedy The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, a 30 Rock–style series co-created by Tina Fey, Robert Carlock, and Sam Means that pairs him with Tracy Morgan as they try to redeem themselves through a documentary. He emphasizes the show’s live‑comedy influences, his willingness to physical humor, and the dynamic with Morgan. Radcliffe also debunks fan chatter about replacing Wolverine, says he’d consider superhero roles if the script fits, and notes that the Harry Potter franchise helped fund his autonomy, with a forthcoming Harry Potter TV series bringing a new cast into the wizarding world.
