Tom Felton makes his Broadway debut as Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Two decades after his unforgettable run as Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films, Tom Felton is stepping back into the wizarding world — this time, on Broadway.

The actor is set to make his Broadway debut in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, marking the first time a cast member from the original films will appear in the Tony-winning stage production.

Announced during a recent appearance on NBC’s Today show, Felton revealed that he will join the Broadway cast in November 2025 for a 19-week run, bringing a wave of nostalgia — and excitement — to fans worldwide. The stage play, which first opened in London’s West End in 2016 and made its Broadway debut in 2018, picks up 19 years after the final book, following the lives of Harry, Draco, Ron, and Hermione as adults, sending their children off to Hogwarts.

Felton’s return promises more than just fan service. His emotional connection to the character — evident when he broke down in tears after donning Draco’s signature blond wig for the production — adds a deeply personal layer to the role. And for audiences, it’s a chance to see the once-sly schoolboy mature into a father figure, navigating a new generation of wizarding drama.

Felton’s long-awaited return as Draco offers a rare blend of nostalgia and fresh storytelling. If you’ve ever loved the world of Harry Potter, this is one Broadway moment you won’t want to miss. Catch Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the Lyric Theatre!
