Tom Felton and Daniel Radcliffe have both flown from Hogwarts to Broadway.
Tony Award winner Radcliffe is notching his fifth credit on the Great White Way this Spring in “Every Brilliant Thing,” while Felton is making his debut in “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” on Nov. 11.
Felton, who will be reprising his magical movie role of Draco Malfoy, only as an adult, says his former “Potter” movie co-star with more stage experience has lent him a hand.
“I’ve taken a few tips from Potter, this is true,” Felton, 38, told “Good Morning America” on Wednesday.
The British actor, who was 12 years old when he began playing Slytherin bully Draco, said Radcliffe has been his “inspiration” for coming to the New York stage.
“I saw him in his first show 10 plus years ago, and now obviously he is a Tony winner and a big inspiration for the reason why Broadway is so special.”
Radcliffe’s freshman part on Broadway was as Alan Strang in the 2008 revival of Peter Shaffer’s “Equus,” opposite the late Richard Griffiths, who played Uncle Vernon in the “Harry Potter” films.
Fifteen years later, the actor won his first Tony for his most recent show — the 2023 revival of the musical “Merrily We Roll Along.”
Felton said he’s enjoyed returning to the role that made him famous as a boy, and that he last performed in 2011’s “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.”
“I helped shape [Draco] definitely as a kid but this time, he has a son, he’s a dad, so I’m taking on all sorts of parental duties as a Malfoy, which has been fun,” he said.
“Cursed Child,” which opened on Broadway in 2018, is set 19 years after the events of “Deathly Hallows.”
It brings back Harry, Ron, Draco and Hermione — but especially focuses on the new adventures of their kids, Albus Severus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy.
While rehearsing, Felton has been under the spell of New York City.
“I’ve fallen in love with New York,” the enchanted actor told “GMA.”
“I’ve only been here four weeks, so I don’t know all the lay of the land yet. But I can see why everyone is so infectiously in love.”
Away from the boards, Felton has a busy Fall. His sci-fi film “Altered” hits theaters Nov. 21 and his “Downton Abbey” spoof “Fackham Hall” comes out Dec. 5.
