Both Rosie O’Donnell and Robin Williams were so desperate to star in the Harry Potter films, that they offered to work for free! Rosie O’Donnell and Robin Williams both wanted to play Molly Weasley and Hagrid, respectively. However, they were both turned down for roles in the film because the producers apparently wanted the picture to include mainly British and Irish actors. Wow, how different things could have been..
