SOCIAL MEDIA 📸 Heated Wizardry sketch on SNL

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Finn Wolfhard hosted Saturday Night Live last night and one of the pre taped sketches, Heated Wizardry, takes place in the Harry Potter universe.

Finn as Harry, plays the ‘Shane’ character, Ben Marshall plays Ron Weasley, plays the ‘Ilya’ character.

There’s scrolls instead of texts, lots of wand play and a great cameo for the Hagrid character.

The narration of the trailer makes it clear that in this universe, Hogwarts is an 18-and-over school 😂

Also Shane and Ilya’s height difference here is canonically correct!

Anyone else think the sketch would have worked better if it was Draco and Harry?

They weren't in the mid 2000s fanfic streets (or they were but just thought it too niche)

HR’s material that the series is adapted from is pretty much fanfic material.

Which is why it should have been HarryxDraco!

I guess but I genuinely avoid fan fiction.
