Joining this production will be a full circle moment for me, because when I begin performances in Cursed Child this fall, I'll also be the exact age Draco is in the play.

I look forward to joining this incredible company and being a part of the Broadway community." In the teaser video, Tom Felton can be seen wearing Draco Malfoy's blonde wig and black robes.
