The only thing more magical than one Hermione is two Hermiones. Emma Watson, who played Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, met Noma Dumezweni, who is currently playing Hermione Granger in the play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, and the photo evidence of the meeting caused (non-racist) fans to lose their minds.
Yesterday I went to see the Cursed Child. I came in with no idea what to expect and it was AMAZING. Some things about the play were, I think, possibly even more beautiful than the films. Having seen it I felt more connected to Hermione and the stories than I have since Deathly Hallows came out, which was such a gift. Meeting Noma and seeing her on stage was like meeting my older self and have her tell me everything was going to be alright, which as you can imagine was immensely comforting (and emotional)! The cast and crew welcomed me like I was family and Noma was everything I could ever hope she would be. She's wonderful. The music is beautiful… I could go on… Here are some pics of me meeting Noma and the crew. Love, E xx #keepthesecrets#19yearslater
Here are Emma and Noma trying to smoosh themselves to form one mega Hermione.
And here they are doing their best impression of Fluffy (minus one head).
COULD THEY BE ANY MORE PRECIOUS?
Watson also got to spend time with some other members of the cast and crew.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is considered the eighth official story of the series, and shows what happened to Harry Potter and his friends 19 years after they left Hogwarts. Unlike the people who will be at your high school reunion, they seem to still be kicking ass.
