Dan Radcliffe to star in upcoming episode of The Simpsons
Dan Radcliffe to star in upcoming episode of The Simpsons Many of you have written in with word that Potter lead actor Dan Radcliffe will be lending his voice to an upcoming episode of The Simpsons. From Entertainment Weekly:

In a Twilight spoof that’s part of next fall’s “Treehouse of Horror XXI,” the Harry Potter star plays Edmund, a kid vampire whom Lisa falls for. Alas, Edmund’s father, a.k.a. Dracula, and Homer try to squash the budding romance. “Daniel was very excited to do The Simpsons,” says Jean, “and we kept trying to ask him for secrets from the upcoming Harry Potter movie until we realized that they were all in the books.”

The episode should be airing on FOX in just under a year from now. Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip!

"Just under a year from now" I was expecting "Next week!" Hahaha. D'oh.

I can't wait to see it. Dan has awesome comedic timing. He was brilliant on the British show Extras and in Half Blood Prince. It will be sweet! :D


Posted by superfish31 Nov 18th 2009

Yay! This makes me so happy! :] All the Twilight actors have been bashing on Harry Potter for too long. It's time for revenge! [:

this is going to be sooooo funny


Posted by iwantorlando05 Nov 18th 2009

@superfish: When have the twilight actors bashed harry potter...i haven't heard anything about that. But I don't watch their interviews either since I'm not a fan. I have heard of other celebs bashing twilight aka Miley Cyrus and Evanna Lynch but I haven't heard it the other way around. Link please! Anyways, i think this will just be harmless fun. I can't wait.


Posted by RubyRed23 Nov 18th 2009

Yay!! =) How awesome is that? Can't wait for some twilight bashing. :P


Posted by pygmypuff811 Nov 18th 2009

OH MY GOSH it's like my three favorite things rolled into one!! (Yes, I admit it, I am a Twilight fan, though of course Harry Potter is far, far superior in every single way) Wow, I can't wait for this episode!


Posted by phoenixknighter Nov 18th 2009

SUPER SWEET! Daniel Radcliffe finally voices in an Animation, his favorite TV show too, lol. (I prefer Family Guy though, but that's cool). And it's great he's making in fun of Twilight, just Before we see him in DH Part 1.. Twilight is going DOWNHILL, and they don't even know it!.. their ship is almost done sailing.. and about Miley Cyrus.. WOW.. i actually have a newfound respect for her for bashing Twilight. Ok, maybe a lil respect for her lmao.


Posted by mallo7440 Nov 18th 2009

hahahahahahahahahahaha. Since I love Twilight sooo much, Daniel doing a spoof for the simpsons is awesome!


Posted by krazykobra29 Nov 18th 2009

HaHA i cannot wait for this!


Posted by iblameneville96 Nov 18th 2009

i do like twilight,but i always love a good bashing XD i dont get why hp fans hate twilight and twilight fans hate hp....anyway,im so watching that!


Posted by mac1996 Nov 18th 2009

HAHA! Twilight Bashing! I love Simpsons and Harry Potter, so this is going to be awesome for me!


Posted by txRABbit Nov 18th 2009

I LOVED all The Simpsons Harry Potter parodies, from Treehouse of Terror XII: Wiz Kids, to the parody of the Half-Blood Prince ("No man should outlive his fictional wizard!!!) and the parody of Deathly Hallows (Angelica Button and the Deadly Denouement). Truly classic for any HP Fan. Also JK's appearance as herself when The Simpsons go to London.


Posted by rooon Nov 18th 2009

Awww!!!! That's so great!! I can't wait to see it!! : )


Posted by hermionefan15 Nov 18th 2009

I'm a Twilight fan (although I like Harry Potter more), and I've never heard of the Twilight actors bashing Harry Potter. Anyway, this sounds cool.


Posted by Im_No_Muggle Nov 18th 2009

Awesome! I will have to see that! The irony is that Dan who plays Harry will be voicing "Edmund." Love the fact that they're making fun of Twilight! Boo!


Posted by rooon Nov 18th 2009

I love Daniel Radcliffe, The Simpsons, Harry Potter, and Twilight!!!! : )


Posted by iwantorlando05 Nov 18th 2009

@txRaBbit: I agree the HP Simpson's parodies are hilarious. There have been a lot of them. One of my favorite Harry Potter parodies is in South Park...it's on episode when they're also parodying LOTR. I can't remember the exact line but it was hilarious. BTW, if anyone hasn't seen the video of Dan on the show EXTRAS...youtube it immediately. You won't regret it.


Posted by fredXgeorge Nov 18th 2009

Haha that is awesome!


Posted by jojoinpink54 Nov 18th 2009

OMG. Hahahaha this is awesome... too bad we have to wait a whole nother year :-( but sweet simpsons is great


Posted by hpchocofreak Nov 18th 2009

:D I can't wait! Dan is soooo very funny!!!! Saw him on EXTRAS, and in HP6........:D


Posted by ImonTheThreat Nov 18th 2009

Dan Radcliffe got extra-ordinary talent to do this work.We'll looking for the"The Tree-house of Horror XXI".Though he is too young,he is great.I can't wait(truly).


Posted by MrPoe Nov 18th 2009

I read a long time ago that Simpsons was Radcliffe's fav. show, so I congratulate him. Must be exiting and at the same time an honor. And TWILIGHT SUCKS. New Moon = EPIC FAIL. So its good news for many of us here as well! HORRAAYYYY!!!


Posted by ActingDude17 Nov 18th 2009

I hope Miley realizes that Twilight and Hannah Montana often appeal to a similar crowd.


Posted by jojoinpink54 Nov 18th 2009

But if she realized that, it means she might have brains and that would make her, well, NOT Miley Cyrus.


Posted by susan_cc Nov 19th 2009

actually, a lot of Twilight fans hate Hannah Montana and HM attracts more children than teens. Remember, twilight attracts tween girls, teen girls and boys, men and women...mums....grandmas. ..*shudders* and miley cyrus is intelligent and independent--as evident by her bashing for twilight :P


Posted by thequibbler101 Nov 19th 2009

Yay! sounds funny. I'm so amused by "we kept trying to ask him for secrets from the upcoming Harry Potter movie until we realized that they were all in the books.
