Harry Potter and the Cursed Child – First Trailer
In the hearts of Harry Potter fans worldwide, the story of the Boy Who Lived has always left a lasting impression. Now, more than two decades after the first book was released, a new chapter in the Wizarding World unfolds with Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
Originally a two-part play that premiered in Londonโs West End in 2016, the story has taken the global fandom by storm, and fans are now anticipating its leap to the big screen with fiery excitement.
Set 19 years after the events of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child follows an adult Harry Potter, now a Ministry of Magic employee, and his son, Albus Severus Potter. Albus, struggling under the weight of his father’s legendary status, finds his time at Hogwarts full of challengesโboth personal and magical.
As Albus embarks on his own journey, he befriends Scorpius Malfoy, the son of Draco Malfoy, forging an unexpected bond. However, their friendship takes a dangerous turn when they discover an illegal Time-Turner and use it to attempt to right the wrongs of the past. This meddling with time leads to chaotic and potentially devastating consequences, bringing old enemies back and putting the entire magical world at risk.
At its core, The Cursed Child is a story about family, legacy, and the complexities of living up to impossible expectations. Harry and Albus’s strained relationship mirrors universal themes of parental pressure and generational conflict, making the story relatable even amidst its magical setting.
