Warner Bros. has officially confirmed the production of “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,” a film adaptation of the acclaimed stage play. Fans will be delighted to know that the original cast, including Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint, will be reprising their iconic roles as Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley.

Set 19 years after the events of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” the film will follow Harry Potter, now a Ministry of Magic employee, as he grapples with his past while his youngest son, Albus Severus Potter, struggles with the weight of his family’s legacy. Albus befriends Scorpius Malfoy, the son of Draco Malfoy, and together they embark on a time-traveling adventure that threatens the fabric of the wizarding world. Joining Radcliffe, Watson, and Grint are Bonnie Wright as Ginny Weasley, Tom Felton as Draco Malfoy, and several other familiar faces. Directed by David Yates, who helmed the final four installments of the original series, the film promises to bring the magic, drama, and heart that fans have come to expect from the franchise.
