​Below is a brief description of the lead characters. Consider who you

connect with most!

​

 

Lead Roles

Harry Potter (Male - Older)

Now a father to James, Albus, and Lily, Harry works as Head of

Magical Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic and is married

to Ginny Weasley. Harry struggles with the demands of parenting

while still fighting against the forces of Dark Magic. Memories

from his childhood and the pain and death he endured growing

up and facing Voldemort continue to haunt his thoughts. Despite

this, Harry is now a grown man devoted to his family, wife, and

friends, and as ever, the importance of good over evil.

​

Hermione Granger (Female - Older)

Hermione is now the Minister for Magic. She is a strong leader

who is not afraid to stand up and confront issues her predecessors

tried to ignore. She is married to Ron and has two children, a

daughter Rose and a son Hugo, whom she adores. Her close

friendship with Harry remains as they work together as a team at

the Ministry. Her fond frustrations with her husband Ron remind

us of the many squabbles they had at school, but their devotion

to each other is clear.

​

Ron Weasley (Male - Older)

A loving father and husband, Ron has two children that he looks

after alongside running his own joke shop, Weasley’s Wizard

Wheezes. Affable as ever, Ron is a stalwart friend to Harry and a

reliable and affectionate husband to Hermione. As in his youth,

Ron is determined and quick to offer help to support Harry and

defend the Wizarding World.​

​

Ginny Potter (Female - Older)

Married to Harry, Ginny works as a sports editor for the Daily

Prophet. She stands alongside Harry as a supportive wife but also

has to show great patience as he struggles with his relationship

with his son Albus, while still grappling with his past. She

understands Harry’s troubled sleep and dreams and knows when

he is not being totally open with her.

​​​

Draco Malfoy (Male - older)

Just as devoted to his family as Harry, Draco is uberly commibed

to protecting his son, Scorpius, while babling against rumours

about him and his parentage. Draco continues to mistrust Harry

and his many successes, and openly abacks the decisions of the

Ministry of Magic to try and get them to do what he thinks best.

Always immaculately dressed, Draco reveals that for all his

appearances of anger, his actions are just as rooted in love and

family as the other characters.

​​​

Albus Potter (Male - Teenager)

The middle child of Harry, Albus struggles with the weight of his

father’s reputation and past. He doesn’t fit into Hogwarts in the

way he thinks is expected of him. Surprised to find himself placed

in Slytherin, he forms a close friendship with Scorpius, Draco’s

son. Determined to prove himself, Albus is quick-wibed and

brave, though perhaps he shows some of the recklessness hisfather occasionally displayed in his youth, trying to solve

problems without fully grasping the dangers and consequences.

Much of the trouble with his father stems from Albus wanting to

be his own man while also wanting to know his father more

closely.​

​

Scorpius Malfoy (Male - Teenager)

Extremely bright, clever and well-read, Scorpius can’t wait to

begin life at Hogwarts and all that will entail, but he is well aware

of the rumours that surround his parentage. He has a great deal to

endure but reveals himself to be a devoted friend, brave wizard,

and extremely optimistic and enthusiastic young man. Scorpius is

a character who never gives up and isn’t afraid to speak his mind.

​

Rose Granger-Weasley (Female - Teenager)

​​Ambitious, clever, and hard-working, Rose shares many of her

abributes with her mother, Hermione and her father, Ron. She is

eager to get to Hogwarts and begin her life there. Rose tries to

remain friends with her cousin Albus, and despite drifting apart

during the course of the action, it is clear she is likely to remain

part of Albus’ life, and perhaps Scorpius’, forever.
