London, November 08: “Lord of the Rings” star Sir Ian McKellen is upset with Whoopi Goldberg after she confused him with a wizard from Harry Potter movie on live TV.
According to the reports, the actor who played Gandalf in the hit trilogy was on “The View” when host Whoopi asked: “Are you coming back in Harry Potter?”
Sir Ian, 70, looked annoyed as he closed his eyes, paused and said: “I don’t play Dumbledore-I play ‘Lord of the Rings’.”
Embarrassed Whoopi apologised before him immediately.
