Tom Felton, who famously played Draco Malfoy in the “Harry Potter” series, is back in the spotlight. This time, he’s taking the stage in *Harry Potter and the Cursed Child* on Broadway.
Felton shared the news via Instagram, posting a fun reel alongside the official Harry Potter accounts. He donned Draco’s signature black suit, complete with a wand and a long blonde wig, before playfully asking, “Scared, Potter?”
In an emotional moment, Felton revealed, “The blonde hair came back on and I immediately started crying.” He expressed how much the character means to him, saying, “It’s like me going back to high school.” Many fans echoed his sentiments on social media, sharing their excitement and nostalgia.
At 37, Felton reflects on his journey back into the *Harry Potter* universe. He mentioned, “I keep thinking I’m dreaming.” His return coincides with the story’s timeline, which leaps ahead 19 years, showing Harry and Draco as fathers sending their children off to Hogwarts.
The plot thickens when Albus, Harry’s son, befriends Scorpius, Draco’s son. This friendship triggers a series of events that could change their futures, making for an intriguing narrative. “I get to meet Draco as an adult, which is very exciting,” Felton shared.
The Broadway production will run from November 11 to March 22 at the Lyric Theatre in New York. *Harry Potter and the Cursed Child* originally premiered in London’s West End in 2016 before heading to Broadway. Since then, it has garnered numerous awards, including Tony and Olivier Awards for its stellar performances and production quality.
This continued success reflects a larger trend in theater, where beloved stories from film and literature are finding new life on stage.
