'Harry Potter' stars Daniel Radcliffe, Tom Felton reunite on Broadway
Blimey!
"Harry Potter" movie stars Daniel Radcliffe and Tom Felton reunited on Broadway in New York City this week, where the two actors are starring in separate productions.
The two previously shared the screen in all eight "Harry Potter" films, which were released between 2001 and 2011.
Radcliffe played the titular wizard Harry Potter in the beloved franchise, while Felton portrayed Potter's nemesis Draco Malfoy.
Felton shared several snapshots of the pair's reunion on Instagram, writing in the caption, "Broomsticks to Broadway @brilliantbway @cursedchildus," adding tags for both his and Radcliffe's respective shows, "Every Brilliant Thing" and "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child."
The "Cursed Child" show team also commented on Felton's post, calling the reunion "The Slytherin and Gryffindor reunion we've all been waiting for," referring to Malfoy's and Potter's houses in the fictional Hogwarts school, respectively.
The reunion is particularly meaningful, as Felton previously told "Good Morning America" he was inspired to reprise his role as Malfoy in the Broadway production of "Cursed Child" after seeing Radcliffe's Broadway success in the years since they both wrapped the "Harry Potter" films.
"l've taken a few tips from Potter," Felton said ahead of his Broadway debut last November. "He's one of the early inspirations for me to come to Broadway."
Radcliffe also appeared on "GMA" later that month and said he was blown away to have been able to give Felton, once considered the "cool kid" on the "Harry Potter" set, advice about being on Broadway.
"Every Brilliant Thing," a one-man show, stars Daniel Radcliffe and is playing at the Hudson Theatre.
The ensemble musical "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" is playing at the Lyric Theatre. Felton's "Cursed Child" appearance will run until May 10.
