So this awesomeness that is HP is not over yet! JK Rowling has revealed a bit more about the stage play she has been writing, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
Rowling said that the new play would not be a prequel, but said she didn’t want to go into more detail “to spoil what I know will be a real treat for fans.”
Curious. We already knew that the play would be about James and Lily…yet its NOT a prequel? Time travel perhaps? That’s really odd.
Anyway, heres an article about it: http://fox13now.com/2015/06/28/harry-potter-and-the-cursed-child-j-k-rowling-announces-new-play/
She posted some tweets about it on her page, but idk how to…tag tweets. Those of us who are in America, or other places, will have to wait our turns it would seem as the show will only be in the uk for awhile.
I am very excited for this.

Do we know which James and Lily? James Sirius Potter and Lily Luna Potter are two of Harry and Ginny’s three kids. The other one, Albus Severus Potter, has those unfortunate initials that almost guarantee him a place in Slytherin despite his fears; he could be the cursed child.

June 29, 2015 at 11:45 pm #305673TheWatcherParticipantLol, its about Harry’s parents, or supposed to involve the somehow, or so I’ve read. And supposed to be talking about Harry’s pre-Hogwarts days… Or something. But somehow….not a prequel. Well, I’m sure JK Rowling could throw alphabet soup out a window and still end up with a great story so I have no fears for this.

She’s corrected a lot of news articles on her twitter. They seem to be getting a lot wrong and really know nothing more than we do. So I will ignore the media and only believe what she says.

I hear it recently premiered, right? Please feel free to give a NON-SPOILER review if anyone goes to see it.
Well here are some cast photos:
Harry, Albus Potter, and Ginny:
Ron, Hermione, and Rose Weasley:
Draco and Scorpius:
Scorpius already looks like he’s going to be a conflicted character…I like it. Rose looks like she’s bright and happy just like her parents, and Albus looks….eager….afraid…but excited…So basically, like every child on their first day of school. I like it and its a shame I can’t see it and have to wait until the book comes out at the end of next month :/
Also….Why does Ron have blonde hair tho v_v

Here’s the book summary:
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official Harry Potter story to be presented on stage. The play will receive its world premiere in London’s West End on 30th July 2016. It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband, and father of three school-age children. While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.
It’s going to be available from 31 July 2016.

I want it now Dx
But this part seems eerily sinister: “sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.” <— Is it just me…or does it sound like someone is going to betray someone? Oh god…Neville is the newest dark wizard 😛 But seriously if this were once upon a time, i’d be expecting Albust Potter to turn into a dark wizard because daddy wasn’t showing him enough attention. Either way, this sounds like something really bad…I feel like a hero will be a villain….

Too right! Lol! I’m so glad it’s JKR, who will no doubt have a far more original and skilful take on things!
About the darkness…I don’t know. It’s hard to imagine one of the Potters turning dark. Perhaps Harry or Albus will start having weird dreams and worry that they’re turning dark?
June 11, 2016 at 3:19 pm #324741GaultheriaParticipantAbout the darkness…I don’t know. It’s hard to imagine one of the Potters turning dark.
Lily liked bad boys. She wasn’t a fan of total evil, but I think the darkness had some appeal for her. She was like Belle that way. It might run in the family.
