Darren Criss is negotiating to take over for Daniel Radcliffe on Broadway.

The “Glee” actor would potentially star as James Pierrepont Finch in “How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying” when Radcliffe’s time with the show ends in January.

Ironically, Criss broke through on YouTube parodying Radcliffe’s most famous character in “A Very Potter Musical” and its sequel.

A source close to Criss tells Gossip Cop that he’s in talks with producers, although a deal not yet been finalized.

The revival of “How To Succeed” has been a major success, due in no small part to Radcliffe’s movie stardom.
