Harry Potter is HBO's new television adaptation of J.K. Rowling's novels. Each season is planned to cover one book, starting with Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Francesca Gardiner writes and executive produces, and Mark Mylod directs several episodes. Rowling and David Heyman of Heyday Films are among the producers, with Brontë Film and TV and Warner Bros. Television also involved.
Dominic McLaughlin plays Harry, with Arabella Stanton as Hermione and Alastair Stout as Ron. John Lithgow plays Dumbledore, Paapa Essiedu plays Snape, Janet McTeer plays McGonagall and Nick Frost plays Hagrid. The first season is due on Christmas Day 2026 on HBO and HBO Max, a year earlier than the 2027 window HBO had first given.
