There Will Be A 'Reunion' Via Audio Between Harry Potter Fans And Casts

JAKARTA - Harry Potter author JK Rowling invites residents from Wizarding World or Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them players to read Harry Potter books in Spotify audio on his online hub. Daniel Radcliffe was appointed to be the first guest in the Harry Potter at Home program.

In this program, a number of players will read the first Harry Potter book entitled Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone which is divided into several parts.

This free-to-listen podcast features Radcliffe reading the book that made his career famous. With his thick accent, the Guns Akimbo actor started it like he was reading a line. He muttered several notes of dialogue in the 25-minute audio. Radcliffe's voice also shook fans who felt like 'reunion' with Harry Potter.

Daniel Radcliffe also told how Harry was abandoned and placed at the door of his uncle and aunt's house. "Mr and Mrs Dursley, number four Privet Drive, proudly say we are normal, thank you very much," says Radcliffe, which is the opening line in the film.

After Daniel Radcliffe, there are Eddie Redmayne and Stephen Fry who will read other parts of the Harry Potter books. This activity is part of Rowling's online hub to accompany parents, children and teachers during times of crisis.

The audio and video will be released every week from now until next summer. This is Rowling's way of helping people who feel bored in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Aware of fan enthusiasm, the Harry Potter at Home program also prepares quizzes, puzzles and clubs to keep fans entertained who are touched by the 'return' of Harry Potter.

The Harry Potter at Home video can be watched by accessing HarryPotterAtHome.com while those of you who want to hear the podcast version can listen to it via Spotify for free. Fun entertainment, right?
