In additional teaser images, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint gather for a sitting conversation – in none other than the Gryffindor Common Room. The Common Room brings immense nostalgia for many fans of the film, as the setting holds great importance and fond memories throughout the films.
As of right now, much of what the reunion will consist of remains a mystery. However, it is clear that the celebration was made with heart and created as a gift to those who cherish the film series deeply. Tom Ascheim, the President of Warner Bros, believes the reunion will appreciate the passionate actors’ dedication to fulfilling the legacy of the films – as well as the fans who have supported the series for the last 20 years.
