A new ‘interpretation’ of the now iconic movie series – Harry Potter! New actors and new settings (presumable). We should all look forward to it. Will it follow the books and the ‘old’ series? There should be something new in it – otherwise we might compare. That would not be fair to the new actors I think. Wiki says: “Development on a Harry Potter series was revealed to have begun by January 2021, with plans for its production to span a decade as part of a faithful adaptation of the books. Creatively led by showrunner Francesca Gardiner and director Mark Mylod, casting for major roles began in November 2024, and confirmation came by April 2025. A casting call for the main roles of Harry, Ron and Hermione was issued in September 2024; after considering 40,000 actors, McLaughlin, Stout and Stanton were announced as cast in May 2025. There will be significant changes: the ‘old’ caste will not be used. They are building one from scratch and it will be mor aligned with the books but also expand in terms of rooms etc. There will be a new unform as well. AI told me: “For HBO’s new Harry Potter television series, outdoor and on-location scenes are being filmed across various scenic spots in the UK.
