Draco Malfoy, portrayed by Tom Felton, to make Broadway debut
Tom Felton, 37, Steps Back as Draco Malfoy on Broadway
Excitement is brewing for Harry Potter fans as Tom Felton revisits his iconic role! It's been 14 years since the big screen last saw Draco Malfoy, but now the actor is headed to the stage - specifically, Broadway's "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" starting November 11, 2025.
"It's a bit of a 'pinch me' situation," Felton shared during his casting announcement on NBC's "Today Show," looking visibly thrilled. "I still think I'm dreaming."
The actor confessed that donning the blonde Draco wig once again left him in tears, bringing back memories from his childhood spent on the Harry Potter film sets. In the play, set 19 years after the end of the seventh book, characters like Draco Malfoy are shown as adults with their own children.
But here's a question on everybody's minds - could this Broadway run lead to a film adaptation of "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child"? Rumors have been swirling about a movie featuring the original cast members, but as of now, no official updates have been announced. Chris Columbus, who directed the first two Harry Potter films, has expressed interest in the project before, but nothing solid has been confirmed.
In the meantime, Harry Potter fans will just have to wait and see if Tom Felton's return to Draco Malfoy marks the beginning of a whole new chapter in the world of Harry Potter.
Draco Malfoy's return to the stage in "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" on Broadway has sparked discussions about potential film adaptations within the Harry Potter-movies-and-tv entertainment sphere. With Chris Columbus' interest in the project, there might be a thrilling movie featuring the original cast members in the near future.
