Tom Felton has returned to the role of Draco Malfoy in the Broadway production of *Harry Potter and the Cursed Child*, marking his Broadway debut. His performances began on November 11, 2025, at New York's Lyric Theatre and will run through May 10, 2026. This return is significant as Felton is now the same age as Draco in the play, making it a "full-circle moment" for him since he first played Draco in the original Harry Potter films 16 years ago. His portrayal as an adult Draco Malfoy, now a father, adds a nostalgic and emotional layer to the production. His debut on Broadway was met with a standing ovation and enthusiastic audience reaction[9][10][2][3][4]. Additional highlights include Felton lighting up the Empire State Building to celebrate his return and coinciding the play's run with the release of his new film *Altered*. His switch from the slick blonde hair to a long ponytail for the stage role visually reflects the character's maturity[4][2]. The audience's reaction was notably strong, even halting Felton's first show momentarily due to the outburst of applause and cheering[5]. His return is historic because he is the first actor from the original Harry Potter movie cast to officially join the stage production[2].
