Each season of the show will be based on one of the books in the franchise, with Warner Bros. Discovery describing the show as a “decade-long series.” It will feature an entirely new cast from the films.

“We are delighted to give audiences the opportunity to discover Hogwarts in a whole new way,” said Casey Bloys, chairman and CEO of HBO & Max Content. “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.”

Max will produce in association with Brontë Film and TV, and Warner Bros. Television. Rowling will executive produce along with Neil Blair and Ruth Kenley-Letts. David Heyman is currently in talks to executive produce.

“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,” said Rowling.

Each season of the series will be based on one of JK Rowling’s seven books, said the person, who asked not to be identified since the deal hasn’t been announced, suggesting years of fresh TV fare from the popular stories.

Let's go

Finally

Stealing this from MJP who already has a Harry Potter thread

Sad

? The Wizarding World thread? Thats the hub, same with my DC one.

People already rioting on Twitter

You got a point there

But

Anyway whoever they cast has some giant shoes to fill

Not even just the kids but literally EVERYONE

I wanted this so bad LFG

JK Rowling needs to go in a way, they need to adapt Neil Gaiman's The Books of Magic asap!
The real Harry Potter

YESSS

Hagrid and Snape will be the litmus test for the show.

They could’ve forced a reworked Cursed Child movie out as a last goodbye before rebooting tho

the movies are a great adaptation of the series tho

i get building on the universe is harder but there's no way they top how loved the og cast was

I dont event know if I used litmus correctly smh

The more i think about it, the weirder it is to imagine a different live action adaptation tho

The former cast would have never agreed. They would be eaten alive.

they'll maybe do prequels and sequels, and expand the universe, mixing the game stuff in,
i hope the producers and director manager to create a trans character just to piss the hack Rowling

Oh I know

But I still would’ve like to see it lmao

But going back to an earlier point, Dumbledore is another one they have to get right in the casting department

only Prisoner of Azkaban does it for me

Bro… this is a dream come true

Will be announced next week most likely
