HBO fixes ‘Harry Potter’ reunion special after fans spotted these big mistakes
LA TimesHBO Max has fixed and reuploaded its “Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts” special after eagle-eyed fans and cast members alerted the streaming giant of a couple of editing mistakes over the holiday weekend. Within hours of the reunion special’s release on New Year’s Day, social media users noticed that an image of actor Emma Roberts appeared on screen during a segment narrated by Emma Watson, who played Hermione Granger in the “Harry Potter” films. New version is up now.” The second error was gently reported by none other than Oliver Phelps, who played one-half of the mischievous Weasley twins in the “Harry Potter” movies. Hope you all enjoyed it.” Though HBO hasn’t remarked publicly on the Phelps flub, Tom Felton — who played Slytherin bully Draco Malfoy in the “Harry Potter” flicks — jokingly took credit for the mix-up in the comment section of Oliver Phelps’ Instagram post.
