The HBO Max-branded streaming service Max has begun airing the Harry Potter TV series.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the new service, which combines the original HBO Max with Discovery+ and the tentpole series based on J.K. Rowling’s books, was unveiled by David Zaslav, CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery, during a presentation on Wednesday.
According to a statement from the newly renamed Max, the live-action series, based on all seven of the series’ books published between 1997 and 2007, would last ten years and be “produced with the same epic craft, love, and care this global franchise is known for.” The series “will have a new cast to guide a new generation of fandom, full of the fantastic detail, much-loved characters and dramatic locations that Harry Potter fans have loved for over 25 years,” according to the press release.
“While the original, classic, and beloved films will remain at the core of the franchise and be available to watch globally,” the statement said, “each season will be authentic to the original books and bring Harry Potter and these incredible adventures to new audiences around the world.”
Along with Neil Blair and Ruth Kenley-Letts, Rowling will serve as the series executive producer. All eight of the Harry Potter feature films, which were released between 2001 and 2011, were executive produced by David Heyman, who is also in discussions to executive produce this project.

Fans of the Potter universe have reacted differently to reports that a TV series, which has been in development since at least 2021, maybe in the works. Although the value of the Harry Potter universe, which includes the novels, movies, stage production, and video games, is believed to be $25 billion (£20 billion), Rowling’s stance on transgender rights has stirred up debate and turned off many fans of the enduring coming-of-age series.

The cast of the first feature film’s 20th-anniversary reunion special, which featured memories of their time together and the enchantment of the books and movies, was without the author. Rowling’s comments on transgender problems have drawn criticism from Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint, but support from Helena Bonham Carter and Ralph Fiennes.
All eight Harry Potter films were made by Warner Bros, the HBO parent company, and Rowling has been in constant contact with her ever since. For the Fantastic Beasts spinoff series, the stage production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, and theme parks in Florida and California, the studio has previously agreed to agreements with Rowling.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, HBO chairman, and CEO Casey Bloys remarked, “We are thrilled to give audiences the chance to discover Hogwarts in a completely new way.” It is obvious that there is such an ongoing passion and hunger for the Wizarding World since Harry Potter has become a cultural phenomenon. This new Max Original series, produced in collaboration with Warner Bros. Television and J.K. Rowling, will delve deeply into each of the classic books that readers have cherished for so long.
