Pottermore: How grown-up Harry Potter might look according to JK Rowling's ... - Mirror.co.uk

Following the recent revelations that Harry Potter, will grow into a greying 33-year-old, we've mocked up how the 'threads of silver' might look on the teenage wizard.

Fans have been offered a glimpse into Harry's future after JK Rowling resurrected her hero for a new short story that reunites him with his old friends at a Hogwarts school reunion.

The 1,500-word article posted on the writer’s Pottermore website, in the Daily Prophet section, by fictional reporter Rita Skeeter, describes how Harry also has a new cut on his face.

Here is a mock-up of how Harry might look:

           

It is seven years since the final instalment in the saga, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, was published. That book contained an epilogue in which we briefly saw the characters as adults sending their own children off to Hogwarts.

The films also launched the acting career of Daniel Radcliffe, who played Potter on screen and is now a global superstar.

This new Pottermore story is not just an update for fans. It is written in the style of a newspaper report by spiteful gossip columnist Skeeter, who features in the Potter books, and reads as a piece of satire of celebrity-based journalism of which Rowling is not a fan.
