We’ve looked at the cast now in honor of International Harry Potter Day in comparison to when the early 2000s were being filmed, and some of the cast members have significantly changed.
Harry Potter fans have taken a look at some of the cast members when they were filming the hit movie series compared to now and all said the same thing. Today (Friday, May 2) marks International Harry Potter Day, founded by David Cameron, the Prime Minister at the time in 2012.
It was declared an official international holiday to honour the work of J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter books which were later adapted into movies, starting with Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in 2001. As it is International Harry Potter Day, it is fitting to look back at some of the stars of the films.
A TikTok account called Harry Potter Lore posted a video on the platform featuring Jamie Waylett (Vincent Crabbe), Josh Herdman (Gregory Goyle), Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood), Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) and Robert Pattinson (Cedric Diggory).
However, one cast member really caught people’s attention. Waylett now resembles American rapper and singer Post Malone, according to many fans in the comment section.
According to one fan, “First guy turned into Post Malone.” Another humorous question was, “Since when was Post Malone in Harry Potter?”
Another question was raised, “Why does Post Malone now look like Crabbe?” “Young Post Malone in Harry Potter,” a fourth commentator said?
The fifth chimed in, “Post Malone” became the first. Waylett, 35, is depicted in the TikTok clip in a 2003 Hogwarts outfit.
He played Crabbe, the son of a Death Eater and a member of Draco Malfoy’s gang, in the Harry Potter books. His only film role to date was in six of the eight movies, which made up his Harry Potter role.
Despite having the world at his feet, his life took a dark turn that seems to have put a halt to his acting career.
After being caught growing cannabis plants in his home, he lost his role in the popular television series in 2009. His time on screen came to an end with a sentence that included 120 hours of community service.
Even worse was yet to come. After being found guilty of violent disorder when he swigged from a bottle of champagne stolen during the London riots, he was sentenced to two years in prison. Despite being cleared of intending to destroy or damage property, he was pictured with a petrol bomb.
