Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has said that he was vying to play the lead in Spiderman.

The 20-year-old star was very keen on playing the web-throwing superhero.

“I was always unbelievably jealous of Tobey Maguire playing Spidey,” the Daily Star quoted Daniel, as saying.

Meanwhile, he is wrapping up the shooting for the Potter franchise this week.

“I’ll be devastated afterwards,” he added.
