Now, a second set of images has been released, including the announcement that alongside the previously notified Paul Thornley as Ron Weasley and Noma Dumezweni as Hermione Granger, is Cherrelle Skeete who will play Rose Granger-Weasley.

The play set 19 years after the end of the books, with Harry now an overworked employee at the Ministry of Magic, juggling his career with being a dad to three children.
