Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: The Play, the Book, and the Possible Movie Adaptation

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child finally opened at the Palace Theater in London on July 30th, and fans are of course very, very happy. This comes just a day before the rehearsal script was released worldwide, which Potterheads are considering as the eight book (although technically not).

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child picks up 19 years after the last Harry Potter book, and introduces many new characters alongside the old ones we know and love. The plot mainly revolves on Albus Severus Potter now, Harry and Ginny’s son, whom we have been introduced to at the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
