The movie Harry Potter: And The Cursed Child
The news about the upcoming movie "Harry Potter: And The Cursed Child" is increasingly heard in early 2023. This film is also said to be a continuation of the last film, namely "Harry Potter: And The Deathly Hollow Part 2".
Even so, this movie has a much different year setting from other "Harry Potter" films. The reason is, "Harry Potter: And The Cursed Child" is set 19 years after the Battle of Hogwarts.
For those of you who don't know, the story "Harry Potter: And The Cursed Child" is not a story based on J.K Rowling's novel as the main author of Harry Potter. Because, this title is a story adapted from a theater drama performance.
Written by Jack Thorne, "Harry Potter: And The Cursed Child" makes Albus Severus, the first child of Harry Potter, the main character in the story. The story will also continue to highlight the father-son relationship between Harry and Albus.
Well as a Potterhead, surely you hope this story will be realized to be lifted to the big screen, right? While waiting for the official news, let's flashback to some other Harry Potter movies that have already aired. Just count the reminders so you don't forget the storyline.
Harry Potter: And the Goblet of Fire
In his fourth year of school at Hogwarts, Harry became one of the contestants of the Triwizard tournament. This was met with a lot of criticism because Harry had not yet reached the age of 17 so he was considered unfit and he was cheating. Unfortunately, Harry could not withdraw from this tournament.
Luckily, Harry and Cedric Diggory successfully advanced to the end and won the Fire Cup. However, the trophy took him to a cemetery and met Voldemort who had just been resurrected by his followers.
Voldemort, who already had the desire to kill Harry, then invited him to duel. Unfortunately, Cedric, whose existence is not accepted, must be killed by the curse issued by Voldemort.
The fourth Harry Potter movie is also considered to be one of the best. The reason is, the appearance of Voldemort adds to the excitement of the Harry Potter story while starting a new chapter in the Wizarding World.

Well, this movie also tells about the Order of The Phoenix, a group formed by Dumbledore from the threat of Voldemort. Interestingly, this group was formed long before Harry was born.
Various exciting actions occur in this movie.
Starting from Harry who invites his friends to train to become troops, Hogwarts which began to be taken over by the ministry, to the battle with The Death Eaters who are Voldemort's followers.
However, there are also sad moments that occur in this movie. The reason is, Harry who knows that Sirius Black is his adoptive parent must see his father die after being hit by a magic curse from Bellatrix Lestrange.
Harry Potter: And the Half-Blood Prince
Harry Potter's adventures at Hogwarts are getting more exciting as things start to heat up. Severus Snape, who is Dumbledore's confidant, even has to defect and become Voldemort's follower.
Not only that, Voldemort's followers are also now starting to plan forces to attack Hogwarts and slaughter the Muggles. In the midst of a situation that is starting to worsen, Harry and others are again gathering strength secretly.
However, the unexpected happened. Harry accidentally learns the secret of the Half-Blood Prince from the findings of the book he took in the potions class.
From that book, he can also cast new magic and is proficient in making potions. Until finally he knew that the prince in question was one of the people he knew.
Harry Potter Movie: And the Deathly Hallows
Deathly Hallows is the final chapter of the Harry Potter story. However, different from the story in the novel, this series is separated into two films with interconnected storylines.
In this movie, Harry has the task of destroying Voldemort's Horcrux. The reason is, the Horcrux is Voldemort's life that has been separated into several objects that are difficult to find when trying to master Black Magic.
This movie also begins the excitement towards the battle known as the Battle of Hogwarts. Watching this movie also certainly makes you not want to lose a second of important moments in the movie.
Harry Potter Movie: And the Deathly Hallows Part 2
This series is the last Harry Potter movie that concludes Harry Potter's journey at Hogwarts.
As the finale, this movie was far from disappointing, making it difficult for fans to move on.

Moreover, Voldemort's troops have managed to break into Hogwarts' defenses which makes them free to get inside so that a lot of close combat occurs.
