Harry Potter, meet Hollywood.
In this most adorable of clips, Daniel Radcliffe sorts celebrities, including — Meryl Streep, Barack Obama, Emma Stone, Miley Cyrus, Ryan Gosling, and Beyoncé — into the four Hogwarts houses (in case you’re one of those who didn’t read the books or see the movies, they are Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin).
Meryl Streep? “I’m just going to put all the cool people in Gryffindor.”
Benedict Cumberbatch? ” He’s someone I associate with great intellect.” (Ravenclaw)
Miley Cyrus? “Come on, Miley, come to Gryffindor. We’ll sort you out.”
Jon Hamm? “Because I know you, and I know you won’t take offense to this, I’m putting you in Hufflepuff.”
Only one person was deemed sneaky enough to be in Slytherin: “I think [Kanye] would kind of be happy with [Slytherin], though.” Obviously.

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
