Earlier this week, it was announced that Noma Dumezweni will play the role of Hermione Granger in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, the eighth installment of the Harry Potter series.
Rowling took to Twitter to confirm that Hermione's race was never specified in the series.

Here are some of the best suggestions from the hashtag:
1.Kerry Washington and Chiwetel Ejiofor as Lily and James Potter.
