The eighth Potter story will not be a book, but a stage play entitled Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, and taking place nineteen years after the events in Deathly Hallows.
‘Harry Potter And The Cursed Child’ Play Details Revealed; 2-Part Sequel Set After ‘Deathly Hallows’
Quote:
When we last saw Harry Potter at the end of Deathly Hallows Part 2, he was an adult, seeing off his own son to Hogwarts from King’s Cross’ Platform 9 3/4. Harry Potter And The Cursed Child will pick up from there. Details were revealed today about the stage play that’s based on a story by JK Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany and comes from Sonia Friedman Productions, Colin Callender’s Playground Entertainment and Harry Potter Theatrical Productions. It was previously said that the play would fill in Harry’s untold story while there was some thought this might be a prequel. The production today confirmed it’s a continuation in what’s being referred to as the 8th part of the series.
