Could we see the return of an iconic character in the upcoming Harry Potter TV reboot? One of the main stars from the original movie franchise has hinted at the possibility, revealing that he would be open to the idea. From 2001 to 2011, audiences were enthralled by the magical world of Harry Potter, following the adventures of the young wizard and his loyal friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger as they battled against the dark forces led by Lord Voldemort. Another key character in the story was Neville Longbottom, who transformed from a timid child to a brave hero in the wizarding world.
With news of the TV reboot, based on the beloved books by JK Rowling, fans across the globe are speculating about the involvement of the original cast. In a recent interview, actor Matthew Lewis, who played Neville, addressed the possibility of returning to the Harry Potter universe. While he admitted that he is not actively seeking a return, he also revealed that he would be open to the idea. "It's not something I'm looking at or want to do," the 34-year-old shared with People magazine, "but would not turn my nose up at." He also expressed interest in portraying an adult version of Neville, saying "That could be interesting. I would certainly look at that and consider it."
Despite his initial nerves, Neville proved to be a brave and loyal member of Gryffindor, always standing by Harry's side. Reflecting on his time in the franchise, Matthew revealed that one of Neville's iconic lines, "Why is it always me?", was actually a personal dislike for him. He also shared a dislike for another famous line, "Oh my god, I've killed Harry Potter!", from The Goblet of Fire. Despite his reservations, fans still love and appreciate these moments from the films.
While it may not be confirmed, there is a possibility that an adult Neville could make an appearance in the Harry Potter TV reboot. Only time will tell what the future holds for the beloved characters and their actors. In the meantime, Matthew has continued to work in various productions since Harry Potter, including Me Before You, Bluestone 42, and Avoidance. The highly-anticipated TV series will air on HBO Max, and fans are eagerly awaiting any new updates.
