The first set of photographs featuring some cast members of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in costume has been released.
Actor Sam Clemmett has been revealed as the character Albus Severus Potter: the cursed child referred to in the title in Charlie Gray's portraits.
It's also been announced Poppy Miller will take on the role of Ginny Potter - Harry's wife.
Previews of the play begin at London's Palace Theatre on 7 June.
When asked about Parker's transformation, author JK Rowling said: "He simply is Harry now. There's a kind of relief in watching him, he gets it so right."
The Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official story of the franchise to be presented on stage.
The plot sees Harry Potter as a husband and father of three school-age children, with a job working for the Ministry of Magic.
The production's website states: "While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted."
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is one play presented in two parts. Both parts will run in the theatre simultaneously, split between matinee and evening performances.
More photos of the cast members in costume will be released later this week.
