Celebrate Harry Potter’s Birthday With A Movie Marathon; Where To Watch Every ‘Harry Potter’ Movie This Weekend
Happy Birthday, Harry Potter! The boy who lived turns 36 years old on Sunday, July 31. To celebrate, Freeform is hosting a Harry Potter birthday weekend movie marathon!
Fans of author J.K. Rowling’s bewitching series can watch (almost) every single movie in the franchise this weekend during a three-day programming event. (“Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” will not air on Freeform.) The marathon kicks off on Friday, July 29 and ends on Sunday, July 31. But Freeform isn’t just airing seven movies. The network is also making the “Tom Felton Meets The Superfans” documentary available exclusively on the Freeform App. Directed by Draco Malfoy actor Tom Felton, the documentary aims to explore the world of devoted “Harry Potter” fans. Felton also sits down with some of his co-stars, including Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) and Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley), who have their own stories about fan encounters.
