Even the magic of Harry Potter is no match for the Swifties.
The release of the motion picture Grow, featuring two of the prominent actors in the new Harry Potter series from HBO, has been bumped two weeks for Taylor Swift: The Official Release Party of a Showgirl, which was set to open the same day.
Grow, starring Dominic McLaughlin and Nick Frost, had initially been slated to hit theaters on October 3, but with Swift’s movie also settling into theaters that day, producers have bumped the date two weeks to October 18, Deadline reported Monday.
McLaughlin plays Oliver Gregory in Grow, while Frost portrays a character named Arlo.
The motion picture marks the first time audiences will get to see them collaborating in a project, ahead of their work on the highly-anticipated TV adaptation of the Harry Potter franchise.
Rounding out the cast of the family comedy includes Jeremy Swift, Priya-Rose Brookwell, Jane Horrocks, Tim McInnerny and Golda Rosheuvel.

A logline for the film describes the storyline as ‘an exuberant tale full of giant pumpkins, madcap characters, and a little girl who just might be a pumpkin-growing savant.’
The forthcoming motion picture from the Grammy-winning songstress, 35, appears to be another financially-successful endeavor, much like her incredibly lucrative Eras Tour last year.
Organizers told the outlet that more than $15 million in advance tickets sales have been purchased, with eyes on an opening week between $30 million and $50 million.

Swift has made headlines in recent weeks amid her engagement to three-time Super Bowl champ Travis Kelce, 35.
The Karma singer and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end revealed they were getting engaged with an August 26 Instagram post that showcased five pictures of them in a romantic setting.
‘Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,’ the duo captioned the viral post. They added an emoji of a dynamite stick in a nod to their TNT moniker.
Kelce and Swift emerged as a couple less than two years ago. Swift was on hand to watch Kelce in his September 24, 2023 game against the Chicago Bears, sitting in a luxury box alongside his mother Donna.
Swift was then seen spotted taking in Kelce’s game against the New York Jets in New Jersey October 1, 2023. She made headlines at the time bringing a group of celeb pals that included Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and Sophie Turner.
