Harry Potter star set to reprise role (but no, its not in the new HBO show)

One of the original stars of theHarry Pottermoviesis heading back to Hogwarts, but no, it's not for the newHarry Potterseries on HBO.

According to a report fromThe Hollywood Reporter,Tom Felton, who starred as Draco Malfoy in all eight of theHarry Pottermovies, will reprise his role as Draco on Broadway inHarry Potter and the Cursed Child.It will be Felton's Broadway debut.

Felton confirmed the news onInstagramand social media. He also shared the first look of him as Draco in the play on Instagram, as well. It's quite a cool teaser for Felton's fans and Harry Potter fans.

According to the report, Felton's role inHarry Potter and the Cursed Childbegins on Nov. 11, 2025, and will run for 19 weeks from March 22, 2026. You better get your tickets soon if you want to see the original Draco return.

Previously, Felton said that he planned on making an appearance as an extra in the Harry Potter series, which just started filming this summer in the UK. Will he still be able to make it happen as he preps for the new role on Broadway? We'll just have to wait and see! If not during the first season, it could definitely happen down the road, of course. The current plan, which was teased byExpress,is for the series to run for seven seasons on HBO.

Felton also reportedly has abehind-the-scenes role with the series, as well.

It makes a lot of sense for the stars ofHarry Potter to return for the Broadway series! It's definitely a benefit for the play, but for someone like Felton, it's definitely a cool experience to go back into the mind of that character two decades after the movies began. I don't think we're going to be seeing Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, or Emma Watson playing their characters again, but some of the other stars could definitely return.

Draco also has a significant role inHarry Potter and the Cursed Child,which begins 19 years after the Battle of Hogwarts during the book's epilogue scene when Harry, Ginny, Ron, Hermione, Draco, and the other parents drop their kids off at the Hogwarts Express Platform 9 3/4 at King's Cross Station.

No spoilers about what the play is actually about, but it's a wild story! The Malfoys and the Potters are thrust back together again.

We'll share more updates about Felton's role inHarry Potter and the Cursed Childand theHarry Potterseries coming to HBO next year (potentially!). Stay tuned!
