Tom Felton is currently making his Broadway debut playing Draco is 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' and he had a special guest in the audience for a recent show: His onscreen dad, Jason Isaacs.
"I came. I saw. He conquered," Jason wrote on IG. “You had your own giant boots to fill, son, and you burst them at the seams. Balls like ostrich eggs. So brave. So proud. So glad to be there."
If that wasn't un-Lucius Malfoy-like enough, Jason added the hashtag: #blondeshavemorefun
Jason also had the chance to meet his Wizarding World grandson for the first time, Aidan Close, who plays Scorpius Malfoy onstage.
"Needless to say, it was magical…" Tom captioned his own post. "Love you dad. Love you son."
