Voldemort's robes visibly changed every time a Horcrux was destroyed

And you didn't even notice. - by Bianca Mastroianni
  • 14 Oct 2019

By now we're all aware of how intricately detailed Harry Potter is... but for fans to still be picking up on crazy missed details still, proves how much thought really went into the franchise.

WATCH: Daniel Radclfife says he is interested in the new 'Harry Potter' movie

According to the official Wizarding World Instagram, the movies' costume designers snuck a really subtle detail into Lord Voldemort's robes that tied in with his precious Horcrux's. 

Each time a Horcrux was destroyed in the two Deathly Hallows movies, the Dark Lord's robes would fade in colour in the following scene.

It was a clever way of making it appear as if he was "slowly fading away".

Did you know? In the Harry Potter films, Voldemort's robes faded in colour every time a Horcrux was destroyed, to give the impression he was slowly fading away.

If this isn't the best excuse to watch the entire series again, we don't know what is.

ESPECIALLY with the news that there might be a new movie in the works... with the original three actors Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint!

A snippet of an interview Daniel had with Entertainment Tonight (above) was obtained by KIIS FM with Kyle and Jackie-O had us tingling with excitement.

"I'm never going to say no to something that would make this the thing that in 10 to 20 years times someone's like, 'BUT YOU SAID NO THAT ONE TIME' or 'YOU SAID YES THAT ONE TIME'... I literally don't know."

However, the interviewer asked Daniel if he's interested and YES MA'AM, HE IS!

"I guess yeah! I'm interested in finding out."

Daniel explained that he was only just told about the news as he was walking into the interview, so he didn't know much YET... but honey, he is KEEN.

The best part is that although Daniel is like 500 years older than he was back when the first movies came out, any Cursed Child fan would know that it is set in the future when Harry is a father. So the timing works perfectly.

So where did the rumours come from in the first place?

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. 

Rupert and Emma, you're up next!
