Krispy Kreme has created four magical donuts from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter that people in Hogwarts and outside of it can enjoy. Well, everyone but Gellert Grindelwald and Lord Voldemort.
The four donuts are:
Gryffindor™ Doughnut – an unglazed shell doughnut filled with cookie butter flavored Kreme™, dipped in red icing and Biscoff® cookie crumble, topped with golden icing drizzles and the Gryffindor™ crest.
Slytherin™ Doughnut – an Original Glazed® doughnut topped with chocolate and green buttercreme flavored swirls, chocolate cookie sugar blend, and the Slytherin™ crest.
Hufflepuff™ Doughnut – an unglazed shell doughnut filled with brown butter toffee flavored custard, dipped in golden yellow icing, and topped with black chocolate drizzle, cookie crunch, and the Hufflepuff™ crest.
Ravenclaw™ Doughnut – an Original Glazed® doughnut dipped in blueberry flavored icing, topped with the Ravenclaw™ sprinkles and crest.
Shhh. Don’t tell anyone. But there is a fifth limited edition donut.
Sorting Hat™ Doughnut is a filled doughnut, with a mystery-colored Kreme™ representing one of the four Hogwarts Houses, then dipped in chocolate flavored icing, sprinkled with shimmering gold stars and gold sugar, and topped with the Sorting Hat™ piece. Take a bite to see which house you will reveal. The Sorting Hat doughnut is sold separately in a limited-edition specialty box, while supplies last.
“We’re channeling the beloved magic of Harry Potter™ and the Houses of Hogwarts™ for a collection that is truly bewitching,” said Alison Holder, Chief Brand and Product Officer for Krispy Kreme. “But the magic is fleeting, and so are these doughnuts, so don’t miss your chance to try them!”
The yummy treats will cast their spell on us starting on August 18th.
Oh, and you need a potion to wash them down with, and they have that too.
Golden Snitch™ Latte, a rich golden caramel toffee-inspired latte, topped with whipped cream, Biscoff® cookie crumble, and a sprinkle of golden shimmer sugar.
Ed Sheeran and Rupert Grint have been friends for a long time, and now they are taking their friendship to a whole new level. The two fire crotches got married, and the singer made a beautiful bride.
That was then. Now, the Harry Potter star reveals that he used to love Sheeran, but not anymore in the music video for A Little More. And now I am sad that their Lego House has crumbled.
Maybe someday they can kiss and make up. And Sheeran will write another love song for his fellow ginger. After all, they need to stick together because they are becoming extinct.
In 2003, Lindsay Mendez, Jonathan Groff, and Daniel Radcliffe took Broadway by storm with Merrily We Roll Along. The musical tells the story of three friends’ turbulent friendship throughout three decades…in reverse.
It was such a hit that it won four Tonys, including Best Revival. The Stephen Sondheim-George Furth show was initially released in 1981. It was such a bomb that it only lasted 16 performances. That was then.
This recent version was such a success that they decided to record it for a theatrical release, so that people worldwide could enjoy it. Today, Sony Classic Pictures, which acquired the distribution rights, announced that the film will be released in theaters on December 5th via Fathom Entertainment.
My friends and nieces saw it on the Great White Way, and they could not stop raving about it. So I will be there on day one to see it. I suggest you join me.
Harry Potter has gone from the pages of a book to the big screen and finally to the stage.
Nine years ago, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child made its debut on the West End, two years after it came to Broadway. In all of that time, no one from any of the movies starred in the play. Can you believe that?
That is all going to change on 11/11. Tom Felton will be reprising his role as Draco on the Great White Way for 19 weeks.
I don’t know who initiated this casting, but it was a brilliant choice. You could say it is a thing of magic.
Two years ago, HBO Max announced that they are developing a Harry Potter series, which will be a faithful adaptation of the beloved Harry Potter books. Today, they announced who will be playing Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley. They are: Dominic McLaughlin (Potter), Arabella Stanton (Granger), and Alastair Stout (Weasley).
Francesca Gardiner (showrunner, executive producer) and Mark Mylod (director of multiple episodes, executive producer) said, “After an extraordinary search led by casting directors Lucy Bevan and Emily Brockmann, we are delighted to announce we have found our Harry, Hermione, and Ron. The talent of these three unique actors is wonderful to behold, and we cannot wait for the world to witness their magic together onscreen. We would like to thank all the tens of thousands of children who auditioned. It’s been a real pleasure to discover the plethora of young talent out there.”
The three join John Lithgow, Janet McTeer, Paapa Essiedu, Nick Frost, Luke Thallon, and Paul Whitehouse, who have already been in the series, which does not have a premiere date.
