"Harry Potter" Star Tom Felton to Reprise Draco Malfoy on Broadway
Yara Sameh Tom Felton, best known for playing Draco Malfoy in the 'Harry Potter' film franchise, is reprising the role as an adult in Broadway's "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child." The Broadway show will begin where the 'Harry Potter' book and movie franchise ended, with Harry and Draco as fathers 19 years later who are sending their children to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for the first time. 'When Harry Potter's head-strong son Albus befriends the son of his fiercest rival, Draco Malfoy, it sparks an unbelievable new journey for them all – with the power to change the past and future forever,' a synopsis reads on the theater production's website. Felton announced his role in the Broadway production of on Instagram, in a joint post with the official Harry Potter and Harry Potter on Broadway Instagram pages. In a joint Instagram reel, captioned 'Guess who's back,' Felton donned the familiar black suit with a wand in the pocket, rings and a long blonde wig, before ominously saying, 'scared, Potter?'. 'The blonde hair came back on and I immediately started crying for some reason,' Felton told the 'Today' show. 'It's such a huge part of my childhood. It's like me going back to high school,'. The 37-year-old originally portrayed the protagonist Harry Potter's schoolboy rival when he was a child. He described his return to the 'Harry Potter' universe as a 'pinch me' moment, adding, 'I keep thinking I'm dreaming.' 'I let go of that character 16 years ago and now getting the chance to step back in his shoes as a father this time, in a new story – I get to meet Draco as an adult, which is very exciting,' he added. Felton is the first actor from the movie series to join the cast of the stage play, which opened in London in 2016 and on Broadway in 2018. The two-part play has won many accolades, including several Olivier and Tony Awards. The actor will join the Broadway cast in November for a 19-week engagement. Performances of the Broadway play will run at the Lyric Theatre in New York City from November 11 to March 22. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan

This year's lineup features a genre-defying mix: Tunisian pop, Maghreb hip-hop, Syrian rap, indie soul, and electronic experiments that capture the pulse of a generation in motion. Artists include Si Lemhaf, ODA, Tamman, Dhalma, DJAM & TiMoh, Nejia, Ziineb, Maris Ben, Dawan, and Soolek, each bringing a unique take on the region's soundscape.

This Café in Alexandria Actually Has Kuwaiti Roots
Located on El‑Shaheed Galal El‑Desouky Street, Áve pairs precise coffee blends with tiramisù, saffron and pistachio mousses. Jun 02, 2025 Áve opened quietly on El‑Shaheed Galal El‑Desouky Street, with little more than a bold sign that reads 'Coffee solves everything' and a menu that proves it's not just posturing. A Kuwaiti-rooted café now embedded in Alexandria's patchwork of neighbourhood spots, Áve skips the soft launch fanfare and focuses on calibration - bitterness, sweetness, texture, timing. The espresso is sharp, with the kind of acidity that clears your head before the caffeine even kicks in. The iced Spanish latte is a bestseller, dialled in just right - sweet, yes, but balanced by a whisper of cardamom. Nothing here is cloying or overcomplicated. Its Kuwaiti origins show up most clearly in the pastries - spongy, golden, and steeped in just enough spice to linger. It reads like a nod to traditional halwa but stops short of mimicry. The tiramisù cake is impossibly light, layered with cream that doesn't tip into heavy, and dusted with cocoa that actually holds its flavour. The pistachio mousse has a clean, nutty base that resists over-sweetening, and the crunch mousse delivers the crackle of praline folded into dense chocolate without veering into sugar bomb territory. Áve doesn't over-explain itself. It doesn't have to. It brings the Gulf palate to a Mediterranean audience.
