When Dominic McLaughlin enters the world of Harry Potter, Daniel Radcliffe, who was also his age when he started, wrote him a touching letter.
In an interview with ABC Good morning America, He shares, “I wrote to Dominic. I sent him a letter and he wrote me back a very sweet note.”
The star continues: “I just wanted to write to you to say, ‘I hope you have a great time, and even better than me. I had a great time, but I hope you have an even better time.'”
Daniel also gushes about the new cast, particularly how young they look, saying, “I just see these pictures of him and the other kids, and I just want to hug them. They look so young.”
“I just look at them and say, ‘Oh, it’s crazy that I was doing that at that age.’ But it’s also incredibly sweet and I hope they’re having a great time.”
Last May, HBO announced the casting of the new Harry Potter series, with Dominic as Harry and Alastair Stout and Arabella Stanton as Ron and Hermione, respectively.
In addition to the trio, John Lithgow plays Dumbledore, Paapa Essiedu as Severus Snape, Janet McTeer as Minerva McGonagall and Nick Frost as Hagrid.
Filming of the show is ongoing and is said to end in 2027.
