“Harry Potter,” HBO orders a TV series

A television series, which can bring back into vogue Harry Potter. HBO would have started a serial production, based on the novels of JK Rowling. To report it, citing both anonymous sources, were The Hollywood Reporter e Variety, certain that the network has labeled the development of a series as a “priority” that will allow it to cope with the myriad of original productions proposed by Netflix, Amazon and Disney +.

Harry Potter, in its television version, however, it would not have certain connotations.

Hbo, along with Warner Bros., would be examining several proposals from as many screenwriters, with the aim of achieving something that has not been told over the past years. The wizard, despite the most recent statements by JK Rowling and the consequent proof of Hollywood, was protagonist of seven books, sold in half a billion copies. From the books, eight films were made, which together grossed eight billion dollars. Five spin-offs have been made from the films, two of which have already been released in theaters, while the third is still awaited.

Finding, therefore, a magical aspect that the world does not yet know about would not be an easy task. Hbo and Warner Bros., which the series would then like to release on the Hbo Max streaming service, would have held several meetings to identify the right person and plot. But the coup, to date, would not have arrived. “There is no series of Harry Potter in production, ”Hbo Max and Warner Bros. said in a press release, trying to keep their intentions hidden. However, several sources inside the Studios have confirmed the urgency of the issue, underlining how every creative effort is aimed today at finding an idea that is worth developing.
