Description

Is HBO Max’s Harry Potter reunion special a blatant cash grab or the jolt of nostalgia our pandemic-infected souls need?

We take the opportunity to look back—like Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson and the rest of the cast—on our memories of the Harry Potter movies and how they’ve evolved over the years.

We also talk about the impact directors Alfonso Cuarón and David Yates, in particular, had on the series—and conclude by imagining a dour future for J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World.
