8 Huge Predictions For Harry Potter And The Cursed Child

1. Rowling Will Make Good On Her Criticisms Of Ron And Hermione's Relationship

Despite the fact that The Cursed Child script isn't written by Rowling (rather, it's written by English screenwriter Jack Thorne), it is based on a story by her, meaning the meat of the material will have been conceptualized by Rowling. We know due to casting announcements that Hermione and Ron are set to appear in the play, which means it's entirely likely there'll be some update on their relationship. So what does this mean, exactly? Rowling has stated multiple times since the release of Deathly Hallows that she's not convinced the couple would work, suggesting they'd probably need marriage counselling and even going so far as to suggest she merely paired them off as a form of €œwish fulfilment€. Expect when the play opens and the script drops to read of tension and turmoil between the couple...i's also possible that the two will have already separated. Might this anger fans? Absolutely, but Rowling acknowledged that possibility when she stated her true feelings on the couple's relationship, saying she'd rather be honest than anything else. It's true: Rowling is absolutely known for her blunt honesty, which may have lead her to splitting up the dysfunctional pair. Are you excited for Harry Potter And The Cursed Child?
