Story by J.K Rolwing. Script by Jack Thorne. Being released as a play first as well as a book. And you can bet WB is going to turn this into the movie.

Synopsis
It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.

While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.

J.K Rowling also has plans to take the Cursed Child play abroad so we may very well see it on broad way here in the states.


SPOILERS for Part 1
The first preview version of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Part One premiered on Tuesday. part 2 will be shown on Thursday. Below I will post a quick summary of the plot. No idea where things will go for part 2 however.

MAJOR SPOILERS FOR HP8 (this is the plot line for Part 1. Really just bullet points and doesnt really do it justice)
The play picks up right after Harry waves his children off to Hogwarts. Albus is sorted into Slytherin and becomes best buds with Draco's son Scorpius Malfoy. Meanwhile Amos Diggory asks Harry to bring his son back to life by using the time Turner in his office to save him. Harry refuses. Being their fathers sons, Albus and Malfoy Jr. Sneak into Harrys office (with the help of their friend Delphi) and go back in time to the night of Voldemorts return. They save Cedric but Harry is killed in the resulting battle. The time line is changed and Albus is erased. Malfoy Jr. returns to the future to find that Voldemort rules the world and Umbridge is the headmaster of Hogwarts

Don't be a debbie downer they wrote it together. Lots of writers have co writers in fact most of them do. Almost all your favorite artists have co writers and odds are Rowling had one or at least had input for the original series as well.
