Celebs Who Love 'Cursed Child' As Much As You Do

by Michelle McGahan

For HP die-hards, the release of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (both the book and the two-part play in London's West End) was a certainly an occasion worth celebrating. Fans threw it back to the early '00s with midnight release parties, reading the play straight through the night and traveling far and wide to attend the actual stage play in England. But like any obsession, it's not just those in the fandom who fangirl hard over Harry Potter: Celebs love Cursed Child just as much as you do. And their love for the play is all over social media.

As to be expected, dozens of actors from the Harry Potter film franchise took the Hogwarts Express straight to the West End to see the show in action, but the HP celeb love didn't stop there: Everyone — from Emma Watson to Chris Pine, Ben Affleck to Seth Green, Margot Robbie to Darren Criss — has let their Cursed Child love be known. So next time you're contemplating getting that lightning bolt tattoo inked on your skin, remember: Zachary Quinto may be sitting in the tattoo parlor right next to you (psst: he's a fan).
