Owing to the novel and the innovative movies built around the character 'Harry Potter', it is one of the most loved and cherished characters across the globe.

Amongst the bewilderment and adventures which has been introduced and executed in books and movies of Harry Potter, there lies a small loophole or rather a missing block which all the fans are dying for - the story of the Marauders.

Marauders, referred to Harry's father and his friends at Hogwarts, were introduced in the third edition of the Harry Potter series - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. And since then, this has caught the attention and anxiousness of many a fan who wish to know more about the Marauders.

J.K Rowling, the creator of Harry Potter, did provide a certain backdrop on the Marauders and how they landed up at Hogwarts, but till now, a full-fledged dedicated plot is yet to be framed. However, a group of extremely passionate fans of Harry Potter has shot a 25 minute movie showing the succession plot after the Marauders graduated from Hogwarts.

As per reports, the shooting of this 25 minute movie took four days followed by a year long of editing. The film named "Severus Snape and the Marauders" starts from the Marauders graduating from Hogwarts and congregating at their favorite pub to discuss about their future plans. The conversation soon captures the increasing threat from Lord Voldemort and the possibility of them having to battle it out against their friends. The film proceeds with majestic imagery and visual effects leading to a fight with Snape.

Although this short attempt by enthusiasts did achieve a lot of applause from the audience especially for the visual effects, considered at par with the actual movies, still viewers yearn for more on that front. As of now, there is no update from Rowling or from the creators of the movies on whether this can be expected in the near future or not.
