Alumni Roundup: Welcome to New York

by Sophie Reid · November 20, 2016

Unless you’ve been stuck in Privet Drive or hunting giants in mountains like Hagrid in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, then you’ll know that a certain wizarding world film was released this week. Many familiar faces turned out to watch Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Check out the highlights in this week’s special edition roundup.

First up was the New York premiere. Among the guests were Potter actresses Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood) and Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley).

 

A night back in the magical world ✨ Jo, your storytelling genius continues!! Thank you @prada for my beautiful velvet dress and @alianalopez for make up and @julienfarel for my hair ?

Bonnie was also out to support Lumos a few days later.

Warwick Davis (Professor Flitwick/Griphook) was also at the premiere, filming for a documentary about the Harry Potter fandom, which will be released by the end of this year.

The London premiere soon followed, and not only were our Potter alumni represented, but the Cursed Child cast were out in force – when worlds collide!

Other Potter alumni were there too of course.

 

Just went to see a new movie, not sure if you've heard of it "Fantastic Beasts"? It was so funny. Great script, great music, great acting!

In non–Fantastic Beasts–related news, Emma Watson was out spreading some love and joy in New York, the day before the premiere.

 

Today I am going to deliver Maya Angelou books to the New York subway. Then I am going to fight even harder for all the things I believe in.

And Tom Felton was on set with Grant Gustin.
