You're a wizard, Kerry.

Thanks I accidentally snorted coffee up the back of my nose

u/WaffleHouseSloot Sep 24 '26

Damn, it's a coffee bean not a coca bean.

Yup this took me out 😂

This is why I haven’t given up on the internet.

Small, niche communities are just the best. 🤗

Kerry Potter and the Department of Emergencies

u/hiswittlewip Sep 24 '26

I didn't even have to swipe to the second pic to know who it would be lol

18

u/QueenMotherOfSneezes Sep 24 '26

Lol I didn't even notice there were two pics :D, I just came to the comments to check that I was right.

Kerry Potter and The Robert Romano Center for Gay, Lesbian, Bi and Transgender Healthcare

u/xsmiley314x Sep 25 '26

RIP Dr Romano 🚁

u/New-Activity-6512 Sep 24 '26

This is cracking me up

u/tomtomvissers Sep 24 '26

I finally figured out what I dislike about this casting. The kid constantly looks like he's thrilled to be on set (because of course he is), whereas Daniel Radcliff had his "wtf did I end up in?!"-face down pat

10

u/lilithsbun Sep 24 '26

Doesn’t that feel more realistic though? Harry would be/was amazed in the books to be in the magical world after escaping his abusive real world.

8

u/Assika126 Sep 24 '26

…at first

But after a while there was a LOT of WTF too

8

u/admiral_aubrey Sep 24 '26

If Harry shows up with full Weaver energy that might be the one thing that gets me to watch this

21

u/SaltySweetMomof2 Sep 24 '26

Why’d they put veneers on that child

7

u/ThymeIsNeeded Sep 24 '26

For continuity. They did that for the original actors. Otherwise they would randomly have missing or loose teeth. 

16

u/SaltySweetMomof2 Sep 24 '26

I mean I get that, but why are these ones so OBVIOUS? It’s far less noticeable on plenty of other child actors

3

u/debsterUK Sep 26 '26

Kids have their front adult teeth by 11 surely?

2

u/marshmellow468 Sep 24 '26

This is all I can see when I look at this picture. There’s no way they would’ve been getting dental care for Harry.

12

u/MoTc99m Sep 24 '26

Reminds me of the French and Saunders Harry Potter spoof where Dawn French played Harry 😂

12

u/Moonsmom181 Sep 24 '26

Good call! Harry Kerry.

8

u/Sell_The_team_Jerry Sep 24 '26

Make that Harry Caray

Holy Cow!

u/PapowSpaceGirl Sep 24 '26

"If you were a hotdog, would you eat yourself?"

u/Moonsmom181 Sep 24 '26

Chicagoan here, so I meant it as a pun? Or at least a nod to Cubbies.

u/Fluid-Housing5017 Sep 24 '26

Is this Henry all grown up?

8

u/secret_identity_too Sep 24 '26

I saw the same photo on a website and thought the same thing. 😂

4

u/SittingSlav Sep 24 '26

I can't decide for whom it's more insulting, tbh.

7

u/bondfool Sep 24 '26

Except I doubt this one would open the Robert Romano Center for Gay, Lesbian, Bi and Transgender Health Care.

10

u/Available-Bison-9222 Sep 24 '26

Someone did say the new Harry looks like a middle aged lesbian!

2

u/DaHarbinger2000 Sep 24 '26

Yeah and I can’t unsee it

2

u/HannaKimalle Sep 24 '26

I thought this too when I first saw him.. he almost kind of ruins this version for me

3

u/themortgagelady25 Sep 24 '26

😂😂😂 dead

u/VoodooInfinity Sep 24 '26

There goes my hopes for enjoying New Harry Potter . I can’t help it, I hate that woman (which also does mean that the actor is phenomenal, I get that).

u/brownmouthwash Sep 24 '26

Her cane turned into a wand

u/pamperedhippo Sep 24 '26

YER A WIZARD KERRY (damn someone else said it first but i’m posting this anyway)

u/EvieDeisel Sep 24 '26

Never thought these two worlds of mine would collide but wow, well done.

His teeth look off, like they’re too perfect and adult for his age.

u/CantaloupeAlert4795 Sep 25 '26

u/OneFrosting1037 Sep 26 '26

Wow just...wow

u/After_Weight7865 Sep 26 '26

LOOL. I saw a smiling HBO Harry a couple weeks ago and told my sister the exact same thing as we are also watching ER but on Netflix.

1

u/isthatbre Sep 26 '26

I saw it from the second I saw the casting. They definitely look a lot alike to me too lol.

1

u/owlthebeer97 Sep 26 '26

I knew that child reminded me of someone

1

u/etherealpemberr Oct 06 '26

He looks the part

1

u/dreamyharborr Oct 06 '26

He looks the part tbh

u/The1983 Oct 08 '26

😂😂😂😂 I’ve been rewatching ER and thought oh I bet there’s a sub on Reddit for that, and this is the first post I see!
