═══════════ ⚡Official Details ═══════════
A new scripted Harry Potter television series is coming! The series will be a faithful adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s original Harry Potter books, marking a momentous new chapter for the Wizarding World. Here’s everything we know so far.
In April 2023, it was revealed at Warner Bros. Discovery’s Max Streaming Press Event that the Harry Potter books are to be adapted into a new TV series.
The news comes in tandem with the announcement that US streaming giant HBO Max will soon become Max - and the new Harry Potter television series will be a Max Original when it launches in the US. .
The new adaptation will introduce you to a new cast for a new generation of fandom, and will be full of the fantastic detail, much-loved characters and dramatic locations we have loved for over 25 years. Each season will be authentic to the original books and bring Harry Potter and his incredible adventures to new audiences around the world.
The Harry Potter books were first adapted for the screen back in 2001, paving the path for what would become a beloved 8-film series that we still celebrate today. They will always be at the heart of the magic, but we are excited to hear we will have the opportunity to relive these stories in exciting new ways.
Casey Bloys, chairman and CEO of HBO and HBO Max Content described Harry Potter as a ‘cultural phenomenon’.
“We are delighted to give audiences the opportunity to discover Hogwarts in a whole new way,” he said. “Harry Potter is a cultural phenomenon and it is clear there is such an enduring love and thirst for the Wizarding World. In partnership with Warner Bros. Television and J.K. Rowling, this new Max Original series will dive deep into each of the iconic books that fans have continued to enjoy for all of these years.”
J. K. Rowling, who will serve as an Executive Producer said of the news: “Max’s commitment to preserving the integrity of my books is important to me, and I'm looking forward to being part of this new adaptation which will allow for a degree of depth and detail only afforded by a long form television series.”

"accurate" lmao you already know they're going to DEI at least one of the characters 😂 A lot of the characters' skin colors were never really stated in the books themselves so there's probably going to be race swaps. Won't be suprised if reboot Hermoine ends up being black, they already did it with BLONDE Annabeth, making her black and not even bothering to dye her hair blonde or wear grey contacts. Based on Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, this reboot is def going to make Hermoine black. Wouldn't be suprised if Harry Potter ends up being swapped. For years, Indian Harry Potter has been a popular headcanon in the HP community so yeah. And with Hollywood's recent track of swapping ginger/redhead characters with black people, I wouldn't be suprised if the entire golden trio end up gettin DEI'd.

@@PotterSwiftie Actors/Directors/Writers have a habit the past 10 years maybe push that to 15, to say things in interviews, in statements to social media etc that are not good. Attacking the fans, insulting fans, complete arrogance to the established lore/story to tell what they want all the while sacrificing the real story's quality. Playing victim cards that because there is fan push back from a bad show/movie, it must be dumbed down to a hate group of some kind. Then actors on interviews defending the project during a firestorm and acting like they know whats best and that the fans are wrong etc. This is most clear from Star Wars as a great example. It's a massive reason why that IP has rapidly declined in value. There is a big difference in making some changes/creative freedoms, respectively explaining why they decided to do it and that the fans gotta trust the process they will love it, and what these writers/actors etc pull these days.

1) In TV production, it works in a few different ways. You can have a spec script or a full pilot script to pitch to different studios. If they give the green light, it's weeks or months of negotiations, and then development. Then pre-production for the pilot, production, and then post-production. Then the pilot airs, and if it receives good metrics, then there might be more negotiations, and then development, pre-production, production, post-production, and then airing of episodes. Typically, you build up about 4-5 episodes before they start airing. Then there's usually a hiatus, and then more production. You could shop or pitch a script for years before anyone wants to risk resources on it, or you could get lucky and have immediate interest. It takes a few months to make a pilot, and, from there, perhaps a year to to start pre-production for the show. 2) HBO's Harry Potter will be different from this usual route, though. Studios and production companies already know that a reboot is in especially high demand and the franchise basically guarantees hundreds of millions of dollar in profit. There won't be a traditional pitching or green-lighting process for HP. Instead, they already started by having most of their management and production team ready to go, including JKR. They were looking for a showrunner when typically showrunners are looking for them. Directors, like Mylod, are usually looked for while in pre-production, not development. Mylod is directing in addition to being an executive producer. This could go faster than you think because all they need now is good scripts (which Gardiner seems to deliver) and cast and crew. Right now HP's in late development instead of green lighting. If the rest of this year is basically finishing scripts and development, then late this year or early next year can be pre-production proper, including casting, and they could be filming by fall next year. I imagine there will be lots of special physical and digital effects, so HP will have a longer post-production, like a Marvel movie, which could all of 2026 for a release in early 27 or, if they want to be nostalgic, September 1st 2027. Aging kid actors will be a thing, so I think they are going to be filming constantly even if they release slowly. 3) As they say, they've been in development since 2021, but it doesn't appear they've developed all that much. It's very unusual to be lost in the weeds for so long without a showrunner. If they want a 2026 debut, then they need to be filming by no later than Spring 2025 which means they need to move fast through pre-production and casting the remainder of this year. Ideally, I think they need to announce the casting by fall this year.

@_Professor_Oak Ай бұрын

While you sound like you're clued up on production processes and I don't deny your points, surely things will be sped up due to all the source material already being there to pull from, compared to having to write scripts out of thin air with new idea's. They could literally follow the books verbatim and people would be more than happy. In this particular series, I think the casting will take the longest of all the pre-production processes, once cast is near complete they will likely start shooting as soon as possible.

@RetroRaconteur Ай бұрын

Great info! Thanks for sharing.

@Nemo_Anom Ай бұрын

@@_Professor_Oak Things can speed up, please see my 3rd point. Even having the the resources, the books, at their disposal, even wanting to be very faithful, they still need to be transformed into scripts and paced. This isn't an easy process. I don't disagree with you on casting. This will probably be the most important part because we want them to actually look like their characters and be able to act. They still have a lot to get through, even if they mean to work fast. Production has to happen no later than Spring 2025 or they will absolutely not make a 2026 debut. I know that the image I created seems like a sort of complex set of steps to push through like a train barreling down the track, but there's a famous adage in filmmaking, among other industries: "hurry up and wait".

@ruthp2545 Ай бұрын

You bring up 'continuity'...I think it will really be important to use some of the content of the original movies, such as what we SO identify with Harry Potter... like the music themes (at least some of them anyway), the general look of Hogwarts, the way the creatures appear, etc. Even with an all new cast, SOME things need to connect to the original to bring that continuity, IMO.

@steelsheen Ай бұрын

I think the video said it's a REBOOT, with the main characters being recast. reboot almost always means everything is new to differentiate itself from the version that went before it. so sadly as much as we want to keep certain iconic elements of HP (music is defo top of that list) it's probably gonna be changed.

@steelsheen Ай бұрын

Thank you for updating us on this 👍👍. as much as the iconography of the movies means so much to me (although to be fair I started out as a book reader 😅) I am looking forward to a fresh take on the Wizarding World and am cautiously optimistic that the new series would at least get the main throughline of the books properly, after all they have more screen time for it. also I don't expect them to be slavish to everything in the books, however I do expect them to be efficient about it, such as showing the viewers significant plot / characters that runs concurrent to the main plot, so that it pays off big time towards the end. (in the books, important plots/ characters are just relayed in conversation or the film skipping it entirely. that's kinda annoying.) I'm also not fussy about the physical appearance of characters other than I hope they would retain something iconic of that character, like the Weasleys being ginger, or Hermione having big hair or Harry's messy hair may have meant he's a curly top 😅. other than that I'm quite ready to have more diversity in this cast as the real world actually is.

I know Max is rolling out to other countries, but it may be a while for the UK. I found this form a Techradar article: "Max’s presence in the United Kingdom depends on the business deal Warner Bros. Discovery has with the British telecommunications company Sky. As Deadline explains, Sky is the “exclusive distributor of most HBO content” in the UK due to a “lucrative licensing deal”. The contract doesn’t expire until 2026, so it’s entirely possible people there will have to wait another two years before they can get something resembling Max." www.techradar.com/streaming/max-is-coming-to-europe-in-may-but-uk-viewers-have-a-long-wait-on-their-hands

I don't know about that. I've never been a diehard Harry Potter fan or anything but I am aware of the lore, seen all the movies a few times etc. A casual enjoyer per say. But Harry Potter 100% has dark themes, serious themes. It's a story that the main cast of children grow up through and of course in it's very nature is magical and has light hearted fun moments but there ALWAYS was a dark undertone to what was happening which grew more apparent each movie/book. If you notice, even the movies carefully designed it this way, each movie the atmosphere itself, the environment became more gloomy as the threat and danger grew. It is beyond a serious situation that the kids are caught up in. It's a perfect serious In my opinion best to be read as maybe a 12-13 year old reading it as they grow up with the characters. Obviously that doesn't necessarily apply now that people are most likely to chew through all the books in less than a month. But the story is meant to grow darker and more serious as time goes on.

Hopefully they cast according to their correct age. As much as I love Alan Rickman, he did not look like he was in his 30s.

Could be good News if the casting is fitting. I hope this means a season per school year and 7 seasons

They need to make Voldemort as frightening and scary as possible....He has long thin fingers,Skull face with white pale skin and has a hoody and his voice is cold ans raspy and has red eyes pls do him justice because Ralph fiennes Voldemort was too goofy.

hope they pick the perfect actor like they did for percy jackson (the series, not the movies, they were awful) but they will never live up to the standard of the films, they were on another level

I wanted to audition, but I’m not British. I can pull off an accent, I just don’t know if it’s good, and even though I could you have to be British to be in it, so I guess I’ll just have to watch it and fantasise that I’m in it in my dreams. 😔🤷‍♀️

I am 100% tour average Millienial: I grew up reading the bookers and watching Dan Ratcliff l, Rupert Grant, and Emm Watson be Harry, Ron, and Hermonie l..... im 32 as of 2024. That being said, I'm on board giving nee actors a chance to fill these roles. Nothing will ever beat HP Movies from 2007ish - 2024ish, BUT HP will love on!!!!

@penyamuntarbus6761 Ай бұрын

i just hope they would stay true to the source materials not like the witcher. The Witcher books is great, the game is great but the series really disenchanting.

@Samherbe954 Ай бұрын

Guys. The idea of “woke” isn’t what we should be worried about. There is faithful and respectful to source material, and there isnt.

@woodykusaki9970 Ай бұрын

Nope. Wokeness is the worse. That one should be dealt with first and then faithful to the source material second.

@anchitmahajan1901 Ай бұрын

Please don't make Luna Lesbian or plus community, Crabb and Goyle gay, we have most powerful Gays Gellert Grindelwald and Albus Dumbledore, no need to add anything, stick to the sources, you can deviate based on make it better visually. We don't need butchering of Ron or Ginny.

@9ine-o-5ive Ай бұрын

Yes! Can't wait for the release. I'm most looking forward to the chapter of the gaunts and how they will create the script of the origins of tom riddle. My favorite character in the whole series is Morphin Gaunt. I've made a couple of harry potter vids myself hahah 😄 like studio tour and cursed child

This new tv show might be good we’ll see, it might not be as good as the original movie trilogy of Harry Potter, the original Harry Potter movies were made in the early 2000s, it was a different time back then.

“More than exceed expectations”? They don’t really have a high standard to live up to since it seems most people aren’t excited about it.

@whattheworldneedsiscreativ6421 Ай бұрын

"They don’t really have a high standard to live up to since it seems most people aren’t excited about it." What are you talking about? There are definitely a *lot* of people (specifically the original book fans...) who are excited about it. I would say that everyone is just *split* on the idea of a Harry Potter television reboot... There are some fans who feel it's too soon to remake the franchise and there are others who want to see a new take on the Wizarding World that actually adheres closer to the original source material than the eight movies we got.

I just hope that Rowling isnt TOO involved. As far as I know, she is the one who wrote/created the story for the crimes of grindelwald and secret of dumbledore and those movies are horrible. Begging them to just follow the books to a T.

@94mp99 Ай бұрын

That's why she should get involved in the big part, Harry Potter is her writing, which she ended it 17 years ago, no one know the series better than Jo. Or you forget that Harry Potter books are also written by Rowling?

What about people in the uk how will we watch it

@Falkayy Ай бұрын

Yeah I've not seen many people talking about this. Since the UK is such as large portion of the fanbase though, and since JK Rowling herself is British, I assume there'll definitely be a way for us to watch it. There's still at least 2 years to go till this comes out, so it's also likely that HBO will expand to the UK by then.
