After months of speculation, HBO has officially announced the first role crew members to Max’s Harry Potter TV series, and although a few faces have been rumored for a while, there are certainly some surprises.
The new series is set to stream at Max and Air at Warner’s flagship network HBO, and aims to reinvent Harry Potter Saga for a whole new generation. “Examination of every corner of the wizard’s world brings every season Harry Potter And its incredible adventure for new and existing audiences, ”HBO says of the new show, promising a faithful adaptation of the Global Smash-Hit Book Series.
While some have argued against the need for a new adaptation of the books, it is reasonable to say that the increasing length of the latter novels meant that there was much omission from the original films.
While these films are still being passed on generations – attractions such as Universal’s Wizarding World and London’s WB Studio Tour continue to thrive – a long form adaptation will certainly allow to expand, bring sub -plans and carved material that goes a long way in building the rich world and characters presented in the books.
Who are the new crew members?
One of the things that makes existing fans most nervous is new actors who step into the shoes of characters, so iconically brought to life already, but judged by the first casting message there is nothing to fear, with six key roles that appear to be in very safe hands.
Of those announced in the latest press release, three were already all except official. John Lightgow, starring as Hogwarts teacher Albus Dumbledore, was leaked a few months back, but today confirmed as part of the message.
As it was Gang’s of London‘s PAAPA ESSIEDU, plays complicated potion’s professor Severus Snape and Cornetto trilogy Stars Nick Frost as lovable oversized basic fighter rubeus hagrid.
More surprising were three additional messages, the most exciting of which is Janet McTeer (currently starring in paramount+ hit MOBLAND) As Professor Minerva McGonagall, a role made iconic by deceased Lady Maggie Smith. Also advertised was the relative newcomer Luke Thallon as Professor Quirinus Quirell and comedy -legend Paul Whitehouse as Cantanchy caretaker Argus Filch.
Still, the young actors who want to produce the central trio in Harry, Ron and Hermione, but with 30,000 submissions to silence through as a result of an open casting call last year, could be a while until HBO finds their new stars to sow through as a result of an open calne last year, but with 30,000 lodges to make a result of a result of an open calne last year, but with 30,000. Submissions to sille through as a result that he must be announced.
Meanwhile, even the most skeptical potter-head will fight to disagree that the first official role crew members are reason to start getting excited about the franchise’s small screen on one of the best streaming services.
