Jamie Lee Curtis recalls helping Daniel Radcliff land ‘Harry Potter’

Jamie Lee Curtis opened up about how she indirectly predicted Daniel Radcliff's iconic role, Harry Potter.

The duo met after 25 years of sharing the screen together in The Tailor of Panama.

In an appearance at the TODAY show, while speaking with host Hoda Kotb, the Freaky Friday star revealed how she manifested the role of Harry Potter for Radcliff.

She recalled, "What I remember was, and I just told Daniel this story, we were in the swimming pool. Daniel had to wear a fake tan because he was very pale and we were supposed to live in Panama, and all the kids were in the pool."

However, the then 10-year-old couldn't go into the pool because he was wearing fake tan and just sitting by the pool, when Curtis told him, "'Wait, you know, you look like that kid who’s on the cover of that book (Harry Potter)."

Curtis explained that this was before Radcliffe was cast in the role of Harry Potter.

She said that his mother confirmed that the casting team had already reached out to them about the possibility of signing on for seven films.

Radcliff, who also joined them in the interview added, "I don’t think I knew about it at this point. I think my mum was probably looking at you like, ‘No, no, no, don’t mention it to him."

The British star went on to become the wizard, Harry Potter for all the seven films from 2001 to 2011.
