LONDON, June 2 (UPI) -- Photos of characters Draco Malfoy and Scorpius Malfoy from London's upcoming production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child have been released.

The photos, released Wednesday, show the father-son duo donning their family's signature platinum blonde hair, magic wands and solemn faces.

Actor Anthony Boyle plays the young Scorpius while Alex Price plays the infamous Draco 19 years after the close of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series.

The photos were revealed shortly after the play's organizers released new images of the Granger-Weasley family, consisting of Ron Weasley (Paul Thornley), Hermione Granger (Noma Dumezweni) and their daughter, Rose Granger-Weasley (Cherrelle Skeete).

Images of the actors who play Harry, Ginny and Albus Potter were unveiled last Tuesday.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Parts One and Two is a play by Jack Thorne, based on an original story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany. Scheduled to officially open in the West End on July 30, the play is set 19 years after the events of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
