HBO's CEO Casey Bloys confirmed that the Harry Potter series is still in development, with writers and department heads currently being hired, indicating excitement about progress.
Despite the casting call for children to play the main roles, Bloys emphasized that these announcements do not imply an imminent production start date, underlining the show's ongoing writing phase.
Bloys expressed enthusiasm for the work being done by screenwriter Francesca Gardiner and director Mark Mylod, predicting the series may launch in late 2026 or 2027.
The casting call invites children of diverse ethnicities to apply for key roles, amidst ongoing controversy around J.K. Rowling's anti-trans comments and their impact on the franchise.
