Filming is scheduled to begin in summer 2025 at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden in the UK, with a global premiere expected in 2026 or early 2027.
The series will serve as a faithful, season-by-season adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s iconic seven-book saga, bringing new depth to the magical universe that has captivated millions worldwide.

J.K. Rowling will serve as an executive producer, ensuring that the series remains closely aligned with the books. Francesca Gardiner (Succession) will be the showrunner, while Mark Mylod (Game of Thrones) is on board to direct the pilot episode.
The series will premiere on HBO Max in the U.S. and will be available on Netflix in several international markets, marking a unique cross-platform release strategy for the franchise.
While some fans remain nostalgic for the original films, excitement continues to build for this modern reimagining. With richer storytelling opportunities and high production values, the Harry Potter TV series may redefine how audiences experience the Wizarding World.
The franchise, which grossed over $7 billion worldwide in films and books, is now expanding into streaming—with strong expectations for record-breaking viewership.
