‘Harry Potter' Daniel Radcliffe As Beast In Disney’s ‘Beauty And The Beast’ Live Action? See Vanity Fair’s Hilarious ‘Imagined Celebrity Connections’

Emma Watson recently confirmed that she will be playing Belle in Disney's upcoming live action movie adaptation of "Beauty and the Beast."

Belle's partner Beast has yet to be cast and for those of you "Harry Potter" fans who are hoping to have a cast reunion, imagine Daniel Radcliffe as Beast.

Vanity Fair's "Imagined Celebrity Connections" by Josh Duboff will give you an idea on how the 25-year-old English actor could possibly react to Watson's casting as Belle.

Assumingly, the "Harry Potter" lead male star calls Emma Watson to congratulate her in bagging the Belle role, but eventually the call goes to voice mail.

"Emma, hi! Know it's been a while, and everything, and you've been all over the place, doing such incredible stuff! You're probably at some gala with Beyoncé and Jennifer Lawrence now, eating caviar, or whatnot. I just mean, you know . . . I'm losing the thread here! As you know, that's an ongoing problem for me. O.K.!" Radcliffe's "imagined" long introduction said.

"Just wanted to say: that's smashing news about Beauty and the Beast! You were clearly made for that role. Oh God, I'm not trying to be flirty or lascivious. You are obviously so intelligent, and Beauty-or, Belle, I guess is her proper name-is very intelligent. She's well read! Famously so! Anyway, congrats!"

Now this is the good part, in "Imagined Celebrity Connections," "Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe would assumingly discuss the role of Beast with Watson while he's forwarded to voice mail.

"And if you guys are looking for a Beast, you have my number! Or if you didn't still have it, you have it now that I've called you and left this voice mail. I just say everything, apparently. So, yeah, Beast. I'm sure you're gonna go with Harry Styles or one of those Hemsworth giants, but don't forget: I can sing! And I've got a lot of hair! And it could be a little Harry Potter reunion. But, you know, ignore me! I'm just a daffy English bloke. By the way, we must discuss those mass texts Rupert keeps sending. It's like, 'No one wants to see a picture of your boat!' . . . Alright, let me know when you're back in London, if you want to get some tea! DanRad out. Yikes, I've never said that before. DanRad out? What am I doing?"

Now, this is surely a parody of some sort, but would you consider "Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe as Beast in Disney's upcoming "Beauty and the Beast" live action movie adaptation?
