Two years ago, HBO Max announced that they are developing a Harry Potter series, which will be a faithful adaptation of the beloved Harry Potter books. Today, they announced who will be playing Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley. They are: Dominic McLaughlin (Potter), Arabella Stanton (Granger), and Alastair Stout (Weasley).
Francesca Gardiner (showrunner, executive producer) and Mark Mylod (director of multiple episodes, executive producer) said, “After an extraordinary search led by casting directors Lucy Bevan and Emily Brockmann, we are delighted to announce we have found our Harry, Hermione, and Ron. The talent of these three unique actors is wonderful to behold, and we cannot wait for the world to witness their magic together onscreen. We would like to thank all the tens of thousands of children who auditioned. It’s been a real pleasure to discover the plethora of young talent out there.”
The three join John Lithgow, Janet McTeer, Paapa Essiedu, Nick Frost, Luke Thallon, and Paul Whitehouse, who have already been in the series, which does not have a premiere date.
