SNL Harry Potter parody Heated Wizardry: Fanfic Tropes Take Over Hogwarts
Check out the SNL Harry Potter parody Heated Wizardry featuring Finn Wolfhard. This 18+ reimagining of the wizarding world brings fan fiction tropes to the mainstream.
Forget the Elder Wand—thirst is the new magic at Hogwarts. SNL just dropped a faux trailer for the upcoming Harry Potter TV series, and it's definitely not for kids. The sketch fully leans into the world of steamy fan fiction, proving that no franchise is safe from the internet's obsession with shipping.
Breaking Down the SNL Harry Potter parody Heated Wizardry
In the sketch titled 'Heated Wizardry,' Finn Wolfhard plays a brooding Harry who shares a torrid romance with Ron, portrayed by Ben Marshall. To avoid any legal or moral gray areas, the narrator repeatedly clarifies that everyone is 18+, jokingly claiming that 'Hogwarts is basically college now.' The plot and lore are tossed aside in favor of breathless longing and intense, lingering stares.
The writers at 30 Rock clearly did their homework on fan-favorite tropes. The title itself is a nod to the popular hockey romance novel 'Heated Rivalry.' While the writing might not win any literary awards, the commitment to the bit is undeniable. With high-quality production design and a shameless embrace of 'thirst culture,' it's a hilarious critique of how modern reboots often try to 'sex up' beloved childhood properties.
