Fred and George stored boxing telescopes among the products in their old bedroom. When Hermione Granger went rummaging in their boxes she accidentally activated one which gave her a black eye that Molly Weasley was unable to remove.
Dumezweni was cast in Cursed Child because she was the best talent for the role—ultimately proving this with her performance—and by playing Hermione as a Black woman, she made a beloved character relatable to some BIPOC audiences in a new way.
Rowling has pointed out that there is no reason why Hermione should be white. The books don't explicitly mention her race or skin colour, and she is often portrayed as black in fan art.
Avoiding the discussion, however, doesn't stop fans from noticing. Some Potterheads' heads practically exploded when they first learned that black actress Noma Dumezweni had been cast as Hermione in the original London production of “Cursed Child” in 2016.
For one, Hermione has not failed to solve the mystery that has proved so elusive to Harry and Ron; she sought knowledge in the library and found it in the form of the basilisk description she has balled into her hand. Everything fits. All of the mysteries, voices and attacks suddenly make sense.
Reacting to How Harry Potter Characters Are Supposed to Look Compared to the Movie (According to AI)
How did McGonagall know it was Ginny in the Chamber?
Towards the end of the year McGonagall was forced to act as temporary Headmistress after the Ministry of Magic suspended Dumbledore. Finally, she discovered another note from the Heir of Slytherin which stated that he had taken Ginny Weasley into the Chamber.
Hermione explains that the hourglass is a Time-Turner; she has been using it all year to get to all her classes. Professor McGonagall instructed her to tell no one about it.
Hermione was a prominent example of this as, on the surface, she appeared like someone who would fit right into Ravenclaw. But beyond her interests, her values define her as someone with a take-charge personality and bravery to spare. Unlike Ravenclaws, she didn't apply knowledge in unique ways.
Delphini, nicknamed Delphi, is the titular main antagonist of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Although she initially introduces herself as the niece of Amos Diggory, Delphi is in fact, the child of Lord Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange and has only one goal, restoring her father.
Harry has his superior defensive magical at his disposal, but Hermione is more skilled in protective charms and enchantments. Either skillset could earn them a victory in a duel.
Her real parents were Daneel and Dean Novak, Pureblooded wizards. Turns out Daneel was Tom Riddles younger sister, Daneel Riddle. Of course, the Riddles were related to Salzar Slytherin himself, and this made Hermione the living heir of Slytherin.
Hermione also knew that her parents, and anyone else she associated with, would be in serious danger because of her friendship with Harry. And so, she chose to erase herself from her parents' minds. Hermione wanted to keep her parents safe from Voldemort by ensuring he had no reason to come knocking.
In the broadway adaptation of the TCC, there was backlash about a black actress playing hermione. JK say's she endorsed this and so did Emma Watson, but she made a tweet canonically saying her race was never mentioned. Unlike dumbles being gay, there's like actual contradictions to this in the book.
Author JK Rowling has described people who criticised the casting of a black actress as Hermione in the new Harry Potter play as "a bunch of racists". The Harry Potter creator told The Observer that she had "a great deal of difficulty with" their insistence that the character "must be a white woman".
Harry Potter had a few love interests during his time at Hogwarts. Though he eventually settled down with Ginny Weasley, he also had a thing for Cho Chang in his earlier school years. Then, of course, there's his secret love for Draco Malfoy… Wait, what?
Luna married fellow naturalist Rolf Scamander, grandson of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them author Newt Scamander, considerably later in life than Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny, who all married and started families in their early-to-mid twenties.
In the books, Pansy Parkinson has a schoolgirl crush on Draco, and they went together to the Yule Ball. However, there was no true love between them. In the Cursed Child, Draco Malfoy's wife is Astoria Greengrass.
He actually asked the Sorting Hat to place him in Hufflepuff, as he was intimidated by Gryffindor's reputation for bravery, but the Sorting Hat didn't agree. They debated it for so long, that he was close to being what is known as a Hatstall, which is a term for any student whose Sorting takes longer than five minutes.
She and her husband were proud and accepting of their daughter's identity as a witch, which explained some strange things which happened around her when she was a child. They entered the magical world in 1992 to buy Hermione's school supplies, and were assisted by Arthur Weasley.
Hermione placed it on a piece of parchment signed by all D.A. members so that if any of them betrayed the group, boils would form on his or her face across the cheeks and nose, forming the word "SNEAK".
According to The Leaky Cauldron, when a fan asked if Hermione made sure that her parents could remember her again, Rowling said, "she brought them home straight away." This is good news, as it's awful to imagine Hermione's parents never remembering who she is or ever seeing her again.
