That’s it ! We finally have news about the Harry Potter series, including a release date. Be prepared to be patient, Potter fans (and everyone else too).
We know that a Harry Potter reboot in series form is being prepared at Warner, inevitably with a completely new cast and everything that entails, including the possibility of disappointing fans. In any case, JK Rowling is closely involved in the project to ensure that her work receives the widest possible recognition. It remains to be seen which actors will be chosen for the various characters. In any case, we now know the release period!
Harry Potter points the tip of his wand
FINALLY. Warner Bros. Discovery has announced that production on the Harry Potter television series is well underway. Publication is scheduled for 2026 on the Max platform. This news was revealed by David Zaslav, CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery, during the company’s fourth-quarter earnings call. Zaslav expressed his enthusiasm for the project and mentioned a recent meeting in London with JK Rowling, the creator of Harry Potter. During this meeting, which was also attended by Casey Bloys, head of HBO and Max, and Channing Dungey, head of television at WBD, discussions confirmed mutual interest in relaunching this successful franchise.
Development on the series began in 2021, The Hollywood Reporter reported at the time. Warner Bros. Discovery officially greenlit the series last year, announcing ambitious plans to develop seasons based on all of the Harry Potter books that will take 10 years to launch. This series promises to bring a decade of new stories to fans around the world and renew the franchise’s commitment to its audience across the Max streaming service.
Of course, it’s also an opportunity for a whole new generation to grow up with the actors and, in a way, experience their adventures. As was the case for many of us when the films came out in theaters. All the more reason why the casting for both children and adults was flawless and impeccable. Obviously there is something to start new careers.
