Please, for the love of god let this be true! - by Milly H

There have been strong rumours floating around the internet lately that a new Harry Potter movie is in the works, and it will star the OG legends themselves.

Nothing has been confirmed as of yet, but the Twitterverse have done what they do best and undertaken a full and heavy investigation as to whether we will once again see the adventures of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley play out on the big screen.

What's more, peeps out there are straight-up convinced Gryffindor's Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint will reprise their famous roles.

If this is true fam, it's pretty huge.

On September 6th, the woman behind the epic series herself J.K Rowling tweeted a picture of the Cursed Child logo. Fans immediately went nuts as it is the first photo Rowling has posted in legit months - and the play has been on London's West End since July 2016.

Later, people burst that exciting bubble when they put the tweet down to a simple promotional pic for a Cursed Child related event in New York.

BUT THEN.

Later on that September day, Pottermore posted the most intriguing announcement: “‘Sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places’ is the prophetic new tagline for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, which has just revealed a sensational new look across its marketing artwork and venues around the world.”

Even though there is not a lot to go off, We Got This Covered - a highly respected American outlet that covers film and television news - released a report that Warner Bros. was working on a Cursed Child film, and it wants to cast the OG's as Harry, Hermonie and Ron.

Just a quick FYI, We Got This Covered first broke the news Disney's Aladdin was getting a live-action remake, as well as confirming Marvel's plans for a She-Hulk TV show.

So, they know their stuff.

At this point, we can't see why Warner Bros. wouldn't ride the gravy train that is the Harry Potter series, so a Cursed Child movie seems to be definite in our opinion.

As for whether Daniel, Emma and Rupert will return, we can only hope and pray the rumours are true.
