Harry Potter Fans Are Feeling Old AF: First Film Celebrates 20th Anniversary

Fans of a certain generation (cough cough, millennials) might not want to hear this, but yesterday marked exactly 20 years to the day since HarryPotter and the Sorcerer's Stone hit theaters in the United States. Five days before that, The United Kingdom got their first chance to see Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Even the actors are feeling old. Tom Felton (Malfoy) shared a current picture of himself versus his wizard youth. The franchise went on to become the highest-grossing film series in history over the next decade, racking up over $8 billion at the box office, turning the entire cast of young unknowns into household names for the rest of their lives. Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson have lived rent free in our hearts since 2001. Take a look back at behind scenes shots and movie memories that have us pining for our magical childhoods.
