Harry Potter Fans Spot Hidden Link To Crew In Hogwarts Painting

Did you know about this?!

Harry Potter fans have spotted a hidden link to a crew member in Prisoner of Azkaban - and it's blowing our minds!

Posting on Reddit, one Harry Potter fan explained that a painting, featuring in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, is actually a portrait linked to the director of the movie.

Despite watching the film countless times, we've never paid too much attention to the painting, but this is such a lovely tribute!

You can watch a clip of the portrait below:

Sharing an image, the fan explained that the woman and the baby in the painting are actually related to the director of the movie, Alfonso Cuarón.

"In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), the woman and baby in the painting on the left are actually the wife and daughter of director Alfonso Cuarón," they wrote.

Alfonso Cuarón was marrried to Annalisa Bugliani between the years of 2001 and 2008, with Prisoner of Azkaban released in 2004.

According to a Harry Potter fandom page, the baby in the portrait is Tess Bu Cuarón, who was born in 2003 and was the couple's first child together.

The fan page explains: "The portrait of the mother and baby in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was in fact a cameo appearance. The mother was portrayed by Annalisa Bugliani, and the baby by Tess Bu Cuarón. Annalisa Bugliani was married to director Alfonso Cuarón at the time the film was released, and Tess is the couple's daughter."

In other Harry Potter trivia, fans are only just realising what Aunt Petunia was doing in the kitchen scene from the first movie.

One fan who spotted the hidden detail took to Reddit to share it with other Potterheads.

They wrote: "In Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s (Sorcerer’s) Stone, Aunt Petunia is visible in the background of this scene dyeing Dudley’s old clothes grey for Harry’s uniform. This is only ever mentioned in the book."

While Mr Dursley skims through his post, and Harry admires the Hogwarts envelope with his name on it, Petunia can be seen in the background mixing a pile of clothes around in a big pot. You can watch the video here.
