Harry Potter actor Alex Crockford, who played Charlie Weasley in the films, has congratulated the new star taking on the role in HBO’s reboot after racking up a runtime of just over one second across the eight-film franchise.
Crockford played Charlie, the second oldest brother in the wizarding family, in 2004’s Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, appearing briefly in a photograph of the Weasley family on holiday in Egypt that appears in a newspaper. While a further five films were released, Charlie never made another appearance.
