HBO confirms its Snape, Hagrid and McGonagall castings for Harry Potter remake
The Harry Potter film franchise was packed with iconic British actors, who will now pass the baton to a new generation for HBO’s upcoming faithful series adaptation.
The series is a huge undertaking, with HBO expecting it will be filmed across the next decade with the as yet unannounced ‘golden trio’ growing up alongside it. HBO’s remake will differ from the films by leaving no detail spared from the books – fans can finally look forward to seeing poltergeist Peeves, Hermione’s S.P.E.W. activism, and Ginny’s full Quidditch career on screen.
