There were successes for Wizarding World stars at both the SAG Awards, which took place on January 19, and the GRAMMY Awards, which took place on January 27.

Helena Bonham Carter made an appearance at the SAG Awards, where her Netflix show The Crown, in which she plays the role of Princess Margaret, received the award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series.

 

 

Bonham Carter took to the stage with her castmates Josh O’Connor (Prince Charles) and Erin Doherty (Princess Anne) to accept the award, making sure to highlight that there were many other people responsible for the show’s success (249 cast members, to be exact):

Thank you so much. Obviously, we are all here because of other people’s really good work.

Speaking on behalf of the cast, she went on to thank the writers and producers of The Crown before telling everyone just how wonderful working on the show is:

It is really as good as it gets, this show. I really recommend it if you want another job.

The Crown beat another show with a Wizarding World cast member for the award. Zoë Kravitz was nominated as part of the ensemble cast for her show Big Little Lies.

 

 

There were also a number of Wizarding World nominations at the GRAMMY Awards.

Imogen Heap was nominated in the category of Best Musical Theater Album for The Music of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child – In Four Contemporary Suites. Heap also hosted the Grammy’s Premiere Ceremony, which took place before the evening’s award show.

 

 

Potter movie composer John Williams was nominated in the category of Best Instrumental Composition for “Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Symphonic Suite.” Williams also received a nomination with Anne-Sophie Mutter in the category of Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella for their arrangement of “Hedwig’s Theme”.

I was given a copy of Philosopher's Stone in 2001, and instantly, I was hooked. Since then, my passion for Potter has been equaled only by my passion for fair access to education (and watching motorsport). A spell I wish could exist in the Muggle world is the summoning charm because this Hufflepuff is not a "particularly good finder"!
