Universal Orlando Resort Team Members have paid tribute to the late Robbie Coltrane at Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure. Robbie Coltrane, known for playing Rubeus Hagrid in the “Harry Potter” films, passed away last week at age 72.
Team Members placed flowers near the Hagrid audio-animatronic figure, which is part of Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure at Islands of Adventure.
Last Friday, when the news of Coltrane’s passing was released, fans gathered at Hogwarts Castle to raise their wands in tribute. This was not a Universal-coordinated event, but the resort has allowed fans to pay tribute to “Harry Potter” actors in this manner before as well.
Coltrane can also be seen portraying Hagrid in the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey attraction.
Watch our TikTok below to see the flowers placed within the ride.
