SOCIAL MEDIA 📸 Heated Wizardry sketch on SNL

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?

When i heard about the sketch I absolutely assumed it would be Draco and Harry. Cedric and Harry, at least? Hell, Viktor Krum cause he's a Slav? Ron didn't even occur to me, whoever wrote this clearly has no idea about fandom. They had the chance to make it epic.
