In an accompanying press release, the streaming service said the special features "all-new in-depth interviews and conversations with the cast" with Radcliffe, Watson and Grint, as well as co-stars Helena Bonham Carter, Robbie Coltrane, Ralph Fiennes, Gary Oldman and others.
 
  The nostalgia is quite present through the photo Emma Watson shared a retrospective photo on Instagram that shows her posing next to Radcliffe and Glint when they were kids. In a lengthy caption, she opened up about what the "Harry Potter" films meant to her.

"Harry Potter was my home, my family, my world and Hermione (is still) my favourite fictional character of all time. I think a reporter once said it was irritating how many times during an interview I would mention how lucky I was and start counting... BUT I KNEW BETTER!!! And I still know," she exclaimed.

Emma Watson also thanked the film's fans, who "continued to show their support long after the last chapter closed."
