Nostalgia is one of the most powerful weapons there is. We only have to look around us for a few seconds to see the number of remakes, reboots, sequels, prequels and reunions of film and television that have been occupying our screen time in recent years. Anything that takes us directly back to our childhood has the immediate potential to go viral in a matter of seconds.
Harry Potter, the literary and film saga that marked millions of children and young people around the world, was not going to be less. In fact, we already echoed during the month of April the series that HBO Max is preparing around the story of magic created by JK Rowling (although the actors’ and writers’ strike that is currently flooding the United States can delay the release of the project for months and years).
Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy in the movie saga, has been able to make us go back more than a decade in time with just a photograph and a sentence with three words. As? The actor who put himself in the shoes of Harry Potter’s enemy at Hogwarts used his Twitter account to share a snapshot with Daniel Radcliffe’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
“Hello, old friend” together with the lightning emoji has been more than enough to make the social network explode, accumulating in less than two days more than 84,000 “likes” and more than 9.3 million accounts reached. All proof that magic is still very much alive in our hearts and in our memory.
From ‘Harry Potter’ to ‘Barbie’
Also, it is not the only viral content that our beloved Draco Malfoy has created in the last few hours. Coinciding with the fever and the premiere of the Barbie movie in the last few hours, Tom Felton shared a post on his Instagram account where he compared his appearance during the magical saga with Ryan Reynolds’ Ken to say: “A little upset to never receive a call #sLYTHERKeN”.
Almost a million people have “liked” the publication and among the comments we can see the response of the official account of the film, which has responded to the actor’s collage like this: “Slyther-Ken sounds very appropriate.” Can we expect the participation of Tom Felton in a possible sequel to Barbie? Only time will tell.
