Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 - Easter Eggs & Hidden Details
Easter Eggs
In the epilogue, Draco Malfoy's wife, Astoria Greengrass, is played by Tom Felton's real-life girlfriend at the time, Jade Olivia Gordon.
This is a fun, meta-casting choice that adds a touch of realism to the scene. Tom Felton himself suggested his girlfriend for the role.
During the final scene on Platform 9¾, a Chocolate Frog can be seen hopping on the window of the Hogwarts Express, just as it did in the first film.
This is a nostalgic callback to the very beginning of Harry's journey, bringing the series full circle and symbolizing the start of a new generation's magical adventures.
The music that plays during the final scene is titled "Leaving Hogwarts," which is the same piece of music used at the end of the first film, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone."
This musical choice creates a powerful sense of nostalgia and finality, bookending the entire cinematic saga and tying the conclusion back to its origins.
