A magical reunion.
“Harry Potter” co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Tom Felton reunited Monday at a special screening of “Merrily We Roll Along” in New York City.
The duo were all smiles as they took pictures together at the Hudson Theatre. They also shared a sweet hug when they first saw each other in a videocaptured by People.
Radcliffe, who won a Tony Award for his nine-month run in the Broadway show, wore a gray jean jacket, a brown shirt and black jeans.
Felton, 38, had on a tan coat, a white shirt and gray pants.
The actors met over two decades ago when they filmed “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone,” which celebrated its 24th anniversary last month.
Radcliffe, 36, played the titular character in the film series based on J.K. Rowling’s books, while Felton played Harry’s school rival, Draco Malfoy.
On Nov. 11, Felton made history as the first “Harry Potter” movie actor to reprise his rolein the popular Broadway production, “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.” He got a long standing ovation at his first show at the Lyric Theatre.
“Cursed Child,” which opened on Broadway in 2018, is set 19 years after the events of “Deathly Hallows,” the final installment in the fantasy series.
The play brings back Harry, Ron, Draco and Hermione — but especially focuses on the new adventures of their kids, Albus Severus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy.
Ahead of his “Cursed Child” debut, Felton said on “Good Morning America” that he had “taken a few tips” from Radcliffe.
“He was one of the early inspirations for me to come to Broadway,” Felton said about Radcliffe.
“I saw him in his first show 10 plus years ago, and now obviously he is a Tony winner and a big inspiration for the reason why Broadway is so special,” Felton added.
In an interview with People in June, Felton stated, “My old school chum, Potter, Radcliffe, has done quite a bit of Broadway, so he’s holding my hand and certainly helping me through all the things that are hard to learn.”
“But from what I gather, it’s an amazing community of people,” the British actor added. “The fans are really, really gracious and excited. So I’m just thrilled to be part of it.”
The “Harry Potter” franchise is continuing with the upcoming HBO TV series starring Dominic McLaughlin as Harry. The 11-year-old actor recently revealed that he got a letter of support from Radcliffe.
“It was insane,” McLaughlin said during an interview on BBC’s “Saturday Mash-Up! Live,” adding, “My Dad tapped me on the train and just gave me this letter. I read it and then I got to the bottom, and it said, ‘Dan R.’ I was going mad, but I had to [keep cool]. I was on the train.”
