HBO HARRY POTTER SERIES UPDATE
After the Emmys Dateline interviews Casey Bloys who answers a few questions on the HBO Harry Potter series…
“DEADLINE: On Harry Potter, you recently started the search for little kids to play the three leads. What else is going on?
BLOYS: Writers have started. [Director] Mark Mylod has started. The team, they’re hiring department heads, casting, and we’re off.
DEADLINE: Are you looking to start production in March? That date was on the Casting Call.
BLOYS: We haven’t announced any [date]. I think they were talking about age [the young actors] will be in March, that doesn’t mean necessarily a production start date.
DEADLINE: Are you looking at 2026 to launch the series?
BLOYS: Late ’26-’27. Writers are just getting started so it’s too soon to talk about airdate.
DEADLINE: But you are excited about the take and the creative team that you picked?
BLOYS: Yes. With [writer] Francesca [Gardiner] and Mark I feel very, very happy and excited about what they’ve got going.”
And there we have it late 2026-2027. That feels like forever…
