tv show Harry Potter reboot in the works at HBO

[Elusive Chanteuse]

Honestly excited and hopefully the acting will be much better. 

[GoatGly]

Unannounce it 

[Venice B]

But can we all agree that no matter what they do they will never top this scene?

Also if they're really doing a decade-long tv show with one season a year they could very well do the first two seasons about Harry's parent, the marauders and the first wizarding war against Voldemort like that would be SO amazing and create much more hype for the actual Harry adventures 

Honestly the idea of a prequel as a series about Harry's parents and Voldemort would be way better than just a straight up reboot of the movies

Can this series reach the artistry that Alfonso Cuarón did for the films?

The answer is no, no it can’t. 

 

As a die hard fan of the books, the adaptation of Prisoner of Azkaban is DISGUSTANG (like most movies of the franchise) but I have to admit that if I remove my stan glasses off the movie itself is a MASTERPIECE. The only artistic movie of the franchise with ingenious cinematography, editing and style.

Film. Singular. And his was the only movie from the series that could stand as a good movie on its own It's going to be awful enduring more of this series into my 40s

Right? These users thinking a new season will debut yearly  There’s no way with production value being taken into account.

well the story is set like in the same place for the 90% of the total.

It doesn't need like GOT level of production. 

Some of the movies were made year by year too. 

[Wrecked]

I’ve recently just done my 1000th rewatch and the movies still hold up extremely well, especially if you watch the new 4K versions.
 

I’ll remain optimistic because I was against The Last of Us becoming a movie or a tv show but the HBO series slayed me.

You really belive show of this scale will have a new season every year?   Look at Stranger things or house of dragon. 1 season every 2-3 years is the only realistic option

GOT managed to do a season a year just fine

Exact! Plus no need to do 10 episodes per season. First and second book are small so unless JKR adds some extra storylines (which would be cool as a fan of the books), they don't have to last as long as season 4 for instance.

yeah first 2 books are kinda simple. If no season (I guess) it's gonna be more than like 10-12 episodes long i don't think first book it's gonna have 10 episodes like the book 5.

Probably like 4-5.

People are like "why a reboot" but what else are they gonna do. It's a huge franchise but the Fantastic Beasts movies were flopping and nobody likes the plot of the cursed child. Plus Daniel and Emma clearly don't want to work with Rowling again. They know there is still money to be made from it (there was from that game) so all they can do is reboot with new actors. Actors who know that she's a transphobe and are still open to working with her. I won't be watching but I don't care if other people do. A lot of people just don't seem able to let go of this mediocre series.

announcing a series for 10 years sure is ambitious and will not at all backfire

I hope Harry Potter ends this superhero era though, finally the kids will watch something with quality and will never want to watch another superhero movie in their lifes 

Lol. Harry Potter went downhill after the first 3 movies. And the prequels were PANNED.

 

Star Wars teas .

Exactly, the tv show will make better adaptions of the later books 

[Ivan_brit]

It feels soo soon, the films still at pop culture, they need to wait at least 5 years or even more to re-create this franchise 

[Kimi]

Mediocrity wins

[Helios]

Never read a single book or watched a single movie of this cheap franchise. PASS.

[Material Girl]

what’s the point of this 

 

we have the movies already. it’s not like they missed anything important from the books

Quote

decade-long series

we're going to be tortured by this franchise for all eternity  why is this happening 

[Heartbreak Prince]

I think I will be seated on my couch for this!

[May]

I read a rumour that they’ve been eyeing tom felton (Draco) to play Lucius Malfoy

 

i do hope some of the original cast returns in new roles

[Archetype]

10 years is an insanely long time to commit to a show upfront.  I hope they’re locked into this bc it would be a massive disappointment to everyone if they randomly cancel this halfway through.
