The series will begin in 2026, Philip Rockwell of the media company Warner Bros. Discovery said Wednesday in Munich during the presentation of the “Harry Potter” exhibition. The basis of the future series will be the seven novels of best-selling author J. K. Rowling, which have inspired people around the world. , as well as the successful eight-part film series.
However, many fans are likely asking themselves one thing in particular: Who will portray characters like Harry Potter, Hagrid, Albus Dumbledore, Hermione, or Ron Weasley in the series? “I can't really say more about this because we don't know more about ourselves,” was Rocholl's answer. It is also still unclear how many classes there will be. Seven – one for each book? Or eight like in the movies? Or more in the end?
A difficult task for actors
However, it's clear that a difficult task lies ahead for the future “Harry Potter” actors, as Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Maggie Smith and Robbie Coltrane have set high standards with their characters for years.
Producers hope the new stories in the series will still please fans, who often have a lot of love for individual characters. “We'll be more immersed in books,” Rockol says. “Because no matter how hard you try to do justice to the books in the movie, you can't really describe everything in its entirety, the setting, the characters, the stories.”
