Tom Felton’s movie-related comment about Harry Potter and the Cursed Child was conditional: in 2018, he said he would return as Draco Malfoy if the play became a movie. That was not an announcement that a film had been approved or was in production. The latest official update involving Felton is about the Broadway stage production, where he is set to play grown-up Draco through January 3, 2027.
What did Tom Felton say about a Cursed Child movie?
An Access page dated November 23, 2018, summarizes Felton as willing to return as Draco if Cursed Child became a movie. The page provides a video description, not a transcript, so the reported position is best treated as a paraphrase rather than an exact quotation. Access’s 2018 report
That comment expressed willingness to reprise the role in a hypothetical adaptation. It did not confirm a film, a production start, a release date, or a cast.
What is the current update involving Felton?
Felton made his Broadway debut as grown-up Draco in November 2025. Wizarding World says his Lyric Theatre engagement in New York has been extended through January 3, 2027, and identifies the extension as his final one.

Has a Cursed Child movie been announced?
The official material cited here announces stage productions, not a film. It does not give a movie release date or confirm that a movie is in development. That is a report on the official updates reviewed, not a claim about every possible private discussion.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is a play. Its script book was published in 2016, according to J.K. Rowling’s official FAQ. The book is the text of the play, not a movie tie-in. Rowling’s FAQ entry on the script book

The London announcement describes the one-part version as a change from the original two-part production, whose decade-long run was ending. Producers Sonia Friedman and Colin Callender said, “When Harry Potter and the Cursed Child premiered in the West End in 2016, it redefined what was possible in the art of stagecraft.” The quote appears in the official London announcement.
