Ever since the massively popular film series came to a conclusion in 2011 with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, there has been much interest in seeing the franchise's Golden Trio – Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe), Hermione Granger (Emma Watson), and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) – return to the silver screen. One way that could happen is a film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, the stage play written by Jack Thorne.

A Harry Potter & The Cursed Child Movie Is Inevitable - But You'll Have To Wait 20 Years
A Harry Potter and the Cursed Child movie seems like an inevitable development, but at this rate, it’s not likely to happen for a couple of decades.
What Would A Harry Potter & The Cursed Child Movie Be About?
Written by Thorne, with a story by J.K. Rowling and John Tiffany, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child takes place 19 years after the main events of Deathly Hallows. The story starts at the same time as the Deathly Hallows epilogue when Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Hermione proudly watch their children leave for Hogwarts at King's Cross station. At this time, Harry is the Head of Magical Law Enforcement, Hermione is the Minister for Magic, and Ron manages Weasley's Wizard Wheezes in Diagon Alley.
Aboard the Hogwarts Express, Harry and Ginny's son, Albus Severus Potter, befriends Scorpius Malfoy, the son of Draco. However, as hinted at by the fan-made trailer, Scorpius is believed to be the son of Voldemort, and there are a few signs suggesting the Dark Lord may be returning. Breaking from the tradition of Potters being placed in Gryffindor, Albus is sorted into Slytherin alongside Scorpius. Years later, the two obtain the Time-Turner and, with the help of Delphi Diggory, they decide to use it to prevent Cedric's death during the Triwizard Tournament.
To little surprise, their attempt to travel back in time and save Cedric spells unexpected consequences, as hinted at by the fan-made trailer. Throughout the story, Albus and Scorpius revisit more key moments from the past, including the Battle of Hogwarts, attempting to right past wrongs and inadvertently creating alternate realities. Exemplified by the fan-made trailer, a Harry Potter and the Cursed Child movie would provide fans with a nostalgic return to the Wizarding World and make for a captivating addition to the universe.
All eight Harry Potter movies are streaming on Max and Peacock.

Harry Potter is a multimedia franchise about an orphaned boy who enrolls at Hogwarts School of Wizardry, where he learns the truth about himself, his family, and the terrible evil that haunts the magical world. Adapted from the novels, Harry Potter is an eight-episode film saga that follows the journey of Harry Potter and his friends, Hermoine Granger and Ron Weasley, as they navigate the tricky world of growing up, school life, and magic.
