The Harry Potter franchise is a global sensation, with generations of fans invested in the books, theme parks, stage plays, and (of course) the Harry Potter movies. Fans of the films (which are streaming with a Max subscription) were recently treated to some mind-blowing news when it was revealed that Tom Felton would be playing Draco Malfoy in The Cursed Child on Broadway.
The Harry Potter reboot is based on J.K. Rowling’s books of the same name. Alastair Stout will play Ron Weasley and Arabella Stanton will play Hermione Granger. Meanwhile, John Lithgow, Paapa Essiedu, Janet McTeer and Nick Frost, will take on the roles of Dumbledore, Minerva McGonagall, Severus Snape and Rubeus Hagrid respectively.
Harry Potter actor Tom Felton has doubled down on his support for JR Rowling amid an ongoing feud with many co-stars.
Bertie Carvel has said he may not stay in the role of Cornelius Fudge in the Harry Potter TV reboot beyond the first season. The 47-year-old actor is known for his roles as Tony Blair in The Crown, Galgliesh in the detective drama of the same name, and Simon Foster in BBC thriller series Doctor Foster.
