Harry Potter’s Daniel Radcliffe And Tom Felton Had A Magical Reunion (And There’s Video!)

For fans of Harry Potter, any chance to revisit that magical world is welcome, and a recent reunion between Daniel Radcliffe (who played Harry) and Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) is giving us exactly that. The heartwarming and funny encounter – just as fans hoped – was thankfully captured on video!

Daniel Radcliffe has been promoting his upcoming 2025 film, Merrily We Roll Along, which was filmed from the popular 2022 Broadway show. At a recent screening, he received a surprise visit from Tom Felton, who came to show his support. The unexpected reunion thrilled fans, and a video of their warm embrace, shared on Instagram by PEOPLE, quickly went viral. It was a genuinely heartwarming moment!

If you haven’t seen Merrily We Roll Along, it’s a filmed version of the popular stage musical. It follows three friends – a composer, a playwright, and a writer – and their changing relationships over thirty years. What makes it unique is that the story is told backwards in time, showing how their dreams, achievements, and decisions both brought them together and drove them apart. A recent Broadway production was filmed and will be shown in cinemas, and Felton attended to support his friend’s work.

HBO Max subscriptions begin at $10.99 per month and are the place to stream all things Harry Potter. For that price (the Basic With Ads plan), you get access to a huge library of movies, TV shows, documentaries, and more. See the deal here.

As soon as the reunion clip went online, fans filled the comments section with jokes about the lights flickering, suggesting the cast’s magical energy had overloaded the room. And judging by everyone’s reactions, many non-magical viewers felt a spark too!

How Fans Are Reacting To The Magical Reunion

The comments were a lively blend of happy memories, excitement, and a bit of playful disorder. Here are some of the most notable responses:

  • “Oh they saw each other and magic happened! Lights Dimmed! Lumos! Nox!” – @xtine0476
  • “Omg 😭😍” – @adventuresofwander
  • “The way Dan jumped on that hug 🥰” – @melodymcz23
  • “‘Potta!’ ‘Malfoy?’” – @myjadefamily
  • “This brings me SO MUCH FREAKING JOY ❤️❤️❤️” – @erp1017
  • “WE LOVE TO SEE IT” – @mackenzie.byersdorf
  • “Ohhh my babies 😭❤️ I saw Tom on Cursed Child now I need to see Dan!!” – @monicacrisanoli
  • “They didn’t just work in a few movies. They are friends.” – @carmelo_gallardo
  • “I love how one minute the lights are on and their normal and then the lights go out and their hugging. Something cinematic about that.” – @cassifrass_yass
  • “Be still my Drarry loving heart 💓😍” – @technofool18
  • “Who’s chopping onions?” – @y.r.zy

As a huge fan, what really got to me about that moment was how natural it felt. It wasn’t some big, planned event with Daniel Radcliffe and Tom Felton doing the publicity circuit or a formal Harry Potter reunion. It was just two friends genuinely supporting each other, and they immediately fell back into that comfortable connection fans always loved – especially considering how often their characters clashed in the films!

Now that the musical Merrily We Roll Along is getting a lot of buzz and Tom Felton remains popular with Harry Potter fans – especially through his work in The Cursed Child – the moment for this reunion couldn’t have been more perfect. It truly felt like a bit of the films’ enchantment coming to life.

You can see the movie Merrily We Roll Along in theaters starting December 5th in certain cities. If you’re in the mood for magic – and many people are this time of year! – all eight Harry Potter movies are available to stream with an HBO Max subscription.
