After more than two decades, Daniel Radcliffe and Tom Felton finally shared the spotlight again. The former Harry Potter co-stars reunited Monday, 1 December, at a special screening of 'Merrily We Roll Along' in New York City, where Radcliffe starred in the filmed capture of the 2023 Broadway revival.

The pair embraced warmly at the Hudson Theatre and exchanged words before the audience settled in. Fans were also treated to a rare moment: their first public photo together in over ten years. The last time they were photographed side by side was at the premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 in 2011.

Felton, now making his Broadway debut in 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,' credited Radcliffe as an influence for pursuing theater. “I’ve taken a few tips from Potter. He was one of the early inspirations for me to come to Broadway,” Felton told Good Morning America. “I saw him, I think, on his first show, what is it, 10 plus years ago? And now he’s obviously a Tony winner and a big inspiration for the reason why Broadway is so special.”

Radcliffe, 36, said he was touched by Felton’s acknowledgment. “It’s crazy. Tom’s older than me, he was always the cool kid growing up. It’s crazy that he would think of me as an inspiration for anything. That’s so sweet,” he said. “I’m super excited that he’s in this and he’s doing Broadway and he’s doing the show. It’s really lovely. And I’m excited that he’s going to be in the city and I get to see him.”

Felton reprises Draco Malfoy in Cursed Child, now in its seventh year in New York. The play follows the next generation of Hogwarts families, focusing on Harry and Draco’s sons as they navigate the aftermath of the wizarding war. Audiences have been flocking to the theater, with Felton delivering one of Draco’s signature lines: holding up his hand over his face and asking, “Scared, Potter?” before dueling.

Radcliffe is also returning to Broadway next year in Every Brilliant Thing, a solo play that explores a man’s effort to cheer up his mother by listing all the wonderful things in life. “The show is about a man who as a young boy, his mom is going through a kind of crisis so the choice he makes is making a list of every brilliant thing, hence the title, that he can think of; everything that makes life wonderful and worth living,” he said. “It is a short, very funny play about depression. And it’s also done in a way that’s like nothing else I have ever seen before.”

Until then, audiences can catch Radcliffe in Merrily We Roll Along, alongside Tony winners Jonathan Groff and Lindsay Mendez, a chance to relive the magic of seeing him on stage, now immortalized on film.
