Daniel Radcliffe is excited about the idea of starring in a romantic comedy with Quinta Brunson. During the 2023 Emmy Awards red carpet, Radcliffe expressed his interest in making more rom-coms. He told Variety, “I’d love to do more rom-coms. I did one once, and it was really enjoyable. So yeah, something like that.”
But for a fantastic romantic comedy, it’s crucial that the two main actors have great chemistry. So, who does Daniel Radcliffe want as his leading lady? He’s eyeing Quinta Brunson, his co-star in “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.” He said, “We should do something together,” and added, “And we’re a perfect height match, so really there’s a future in this.”
Quinta Brunson and Radcliffe also collaborated on the third season of the TBS comedy, Miracle Workers.
On Monday night, Brunson won an Emmy for Best Actress in a Comedy Series for her role as Janine Teagues on the ABC sitcom Abbott Elementary. Brunson is also the creator of the popular show, which is set to return for its third season on Feb. 7.
