    Good. It would be dumb if she wasn’t an exec producer

    Now they still need to hire a legitimate all star TV showrunner

    And no dumb blockbuster movie guy that sucks at writing, and no lame like David Yates

    A legit amazing writer/director

    Look I don’t agree with Rowling’s views, but this news really shouldn’t be surprising . She literally invented this entire universe by herself

    Also I feel like a lot of people are going to think this show is going to fail, but it’ll most likely be a huge hit

    Hogwarts Legacy was the best selling game of 2023, it outsold Call of Duty. People really underestimate the power of this franchise

    Only if you live on the internet you think this will fail lol

    It’s gonna be one of Max’s biggest shows 🤣

    I could see Michael Lesslie work tbh… but I’d rather see him take on a story about the Marauders

    if they are smart, they will bring back Alfonso Cuaron as director/showrunner, for at least the first season or two

    I think they'll mimic the movies and change tone year after year
    Cuaron back for year 3 would be insane

    I’d still very much prefer a show that takes place post-Deathly Hallows. Doesn’t have to involve Harry n the gang, but I’d like to see the ramifications of it all.

    A longer dive into the adolescent energy mixed with the bright magic of the first two movies would be incredible. I just want them to keep the look of Half Blood Prince and DH pt1

    How would you want them to tackle it?

    How would you want them to tackle it?

    I mean basically with a high level adult tone, like other HBO shows. No whimsical Christopher Columbus kid BS. No blockbuster Netflix poor writing, background ambiance BS.

    Just really smart strong writing, direction that is done with care and craft, acting that is built on nuanced performances. What I’m describing could basically be comped to the first 5 seasons of GoT (minus the nudity and gore) if you want a comp.

    If you don’t do it like that, then I don’t understand why you’d have it on HBO. And in general, I have no idea why you’d do it at all if it’s not a prestige TV version of this story.

    It would just be the movie version but elongated. That would be absolutely pointless and the biggest missed opportunity of all time.

    I’m still puzzled on why they’re doing this tbh cause I feel like an elongated version that matches the tone shifts in the movies will definitely be what we’re getting.

    They should 1000% lean into the magical aspect like the first two movies did imo and just keep true to the books. Too much good story was cut out

    Idk I wouldn’t mind them starting light and getting darker as they age. That’s what the tone of the books were
