‘Harry Potter’ Actress Miriam Margolyes Says Adult Harry Potter Fans “Should Be Over” The Wizarding World By Now

Buy Me A Coffee

Miriam Margolyes, the sprightly 82-year-old who once wielded herbology magic as Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter saga, has a message for all you grown-up Potterheads: itโ€™s time to Accio yourselves into adulthood!

In a recent chat with New Zealandโ€™s 1News, Miriam, bless her heart, couldnโ€™t help but express her concern for those still clutching onto their Hogwarts dreams like a portkey to Neverland. With a twinkle in her eye, she mused, โ€œHarry Potter โ€” I worry about Harry Potter fans because they should be over that by now.โ€ Ouch, Professor Sprout’s got sass!

Reminiscing about her days on the set, she couldnโ€™t resist comparing the wizarding world fandom to her stint on the legendary British sitcom Blackadder. โ€œIt was 25 years ago and itโ€™s for children,โ€ she quipped, as if gently swatting away a pesky Cornish Pixie.

Miriam, in her infinite wisdom, pondered aloud why grown-ups are still riding the Hogwarts Express all these years later. โ€œThey get stuck in it,โ€ she declared, shaking her head in disbelief. And donโ€™t even get her started on those Harry Potter-themed weddings! โ€œGosh, whatโ€™s their first night of fun going to be?โ€ she wondered, her mind veering into territory even the Marauderโ€™s Map couldnโ€™t navigate.

Now, donโ€™t get her wrong, Miriam isnโ€™t tossing floo powder on your dreams. She acknowledges the magic of Harry Potter, calling it โ€œwonderfulโ€ and expressing her eternal gratitude for donning those green robes. But letโ€™s be real, as she succinctly put it: โ€œitโ€™s over.โ€ Time to pack up your quills, stash your Chocolate Frogs, and bid farewell to the castle. But hey, at least weโ€™ll always have Butterbeer!
