The Harry Potter reunion is worth a look for a thousand reasons, including one name: Helena Bonham Carter! A wonderful actress to whom Daniel Radcliffe has written an ode.
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the saga Harry Potter with great fanfare, the Warner has concocted a splendid program with great reinforcements of actors, directors, producers and sets, available in France on Salto.
The opportunity to learn more about the way the heroes of the film lived the shooting, the fears they felt, the way the directors dealt with the young age of their actors and the special relationships that have developed between team members.

Thus, we learn in particular that the kiss between Ron and Hermione was particularly trying for their interpreters and that Daniel Radcliffe wrote a love letter to Helena Bonham Carter.
Just that.
Helena Bonham Carter, luminous in the Harry Potter reunion
If you had to watch Harry Potter: Return to Hogwarts that for some reason it would be for her: Helena Bonham Carter.
Today’s 55-year-old actress, famous for her role in Fight Club but also for his crazy characters in many Tim Burton as well as for having played the terrible Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter, is literally dazzling with charisma but also with kindness and humanity in the HBO Max show.
Between two bursts of a thunderous laugh that belongs only to her, she returns to the highlights of the film alongside Daniel Radcliffe, with whom she has developed a special relationship.
Daniel Radcliffe’s “love” letter to Helena Bonham Carter
The opportunity for Helena Bonham Carter to bring out the old files, and to teach us, by the same, that Daniel Radcliffe had a crush on her! Or in any case he was playing chilled lovers …
Rather unsettling to learn this as a spectator because, remember, Bellatrix is the one who takes the life of Sirius Black, the adored godfather of Harry in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix !
But it is important to distinguish between fiction and reality, of course. In reality, it is not the murder of a loved one (this little detail) that gets in the way, but the age difference, of course!
At the time, Daniel Radcliffe wrote to his favorite actress:
« Dear HBC, it was a pleasure to be your co-star and your coaster in the sense that I always ended up having your coffee. I love you. And I would have liked to have been born 10 years earlier so that I might have a chance with you. Lots of love and thanks for being cool. »
A few adorable words that earned its author a bit of makeup during the show, kindly embarrassed at having to read his own words in front of the camera.
For her part, Helena Bonham Carter talks about how much her relationship with the other actors was precious to her and how much she cherishes her years Harry Potter.
Her role as Bellatrix Lestrange allowed her to explore new facets of her acting, going so far as to make her feel a certain excitement for sadism, especially when she blows up Hagrid’s cabin.
Helena Bonham Carter is one of those actresses that you could watch talking about their set experience for hours on end, and she is arguably the main reason for our new addiction to Harry Potter: Return to Hogwarts, that we already want to see again.
