On today’s TV broadcast of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 2at the October 21, 2023 at 8:15 p.m. on Sat.1, you have to pay special attention to a small detail. Because during the Battle of Hogwarts, the filmmakers secretly emphasized something heartwarming that only a few fans would be aware of.
The Final Battle: Harry Potter 7.2 honors Voldemort’s sacrifice… with clothing
In the 8th Potter film, Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) takes part in the final duel against Voldemort and Neville Longbottom (Matthew Lewis) also makes an important contribution to the victory against the Dark Lord with the killed Nagini.
Both Hogwarts students are descendants of parents who resisted Voldemort’s first rise to power in the so-called Order of the Phoenix. With a sad ending: While back then Neville’s parents tortured into madness became, died Harry Potter’s parents and only he survived.
Their role model and sacrifice is now subtly honored in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 2. Because if you look closely, wear it both boys wear the same clothes as their fathers on the only picture of the first Order of the Phoenix.

Reedit user and Harry Potter fan Zedfourkay correctly recognized:
Of course, the clothes of the father-son duo in the last film don’t exactly match. But the striking similarity is unmistakable once you know about it.
It’s not just Dobby fans who honor their fallen hero with clothing: Harry Potter’s costume designers have also hidden a touching homage in the final film. The little thing in part 7.2 is perhaps not as noticeable as the alternative Harry Potter ending of a world-saving Draco. Nevertheless, it shows once again how much effort went into the film adaptation behind the scenes.
