LONDON -- Draco Malfoy may not look any less mean in the new photos of his Harry Potter and the Cursed Child character -- but something has certainly changed.

His hair, mainly. Just look at the badass ponytail-goatee combination he's rocking in the picture below.

Elsewhere -- and looking slightly less mean and more nervously bewildered -- is Draco's son Scorpius.

"He's wearing the official Hogwarts uniform before you go and get sorted into your house," actor Anthony Boyle told Pottermore. "He's a Malfoy so his clothes should be really expensive but quite constraining to make him feel a bit awkward."

And here are the two of them together. Scorpius definitely looks unhappy about something.

Alex Price, who plays the older Malfoy, told Pottermore: "Jack [Thorne] is such a brilliant writer and he's taken the story into a great place 19 years later, particularly for Draco."

Not long now, folks.
