Will Daniel Radcliffe Ever Watch 'Harry Potter And The Cursed Child'?
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Daniel Radcliffe shared that he still wants to watch "Harry Potter and The Cursed Child". However, he plans to take a different approach in watching the play.

"Harry Potter and The Cursed Child" will focus on Harry's son Albus Severus. However, the play will also feature the adult versions of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley and Draco Malfoy. Tickets for the play are already sold out.
