SaralnamaDirector Chris Columbus confirmed a Harry Potter cast reunion will not happen. He told The Times U.K. on 25 Aug 2025 that political differences make it impossible. The original trio of Daniel Radcliffe (36), Rupert Grint (37), and Emma Watson (35) will not return. Columbus cited J.K. Rowling's controversial views as a major obstacle. He directed the first two Harry Potter films in 2001 and 2002. Columbus maintains good relationships with the cast but hasn't spoken to Rowling in years. Fans can rewatch the original movies to relive the magic of Hogwarts. (Updated 1 Sep 2025, 20:21 IST; source: link)
