Irish actor Richard Harris played the role of Albus Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

Harris initially wasn't interested in the role and only took it after his granddaughter threatened never to speak to him again. He reprised the role in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secretsbut sadly passed away before filming began on the third movie.


The role was recast and Michael Gambon took over.

Harry Potter was played by Daniel Radcliffe.

Director Christopher Columbus saw him in David Copperfield and immediately wanted him to play Harry but was told that Radcliffe had very protective parents who would not allow him to do it.


The producer David Heyman bumped into Radcliffe and his father at the theatre and asked him to audition. After a successful audition and convincing his parents that he would be protected from the media, Daniel Radcliffe was allowed to take on the role.
