The wizarding world of Harry Potter has taken the world by storm with the production of eight movies, seven books and an entire collection of spin-offs, and now, finally, HBO announced they were going to revamp the series for the first time for the small screens. We got a whiff of the news back in 2021, and now we’re finally putting a face to the name, with cast announcements made yesterday.

Meet your new Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger in the upcoming HBO Original series based on the iconic “Harry Potter” franchise. Dominic McLaughlin (Harry), Alastair Stout (Ron), and Arabella Stanton (Hermione) have been cast as the golden trio, HBO announced yesterday (27 May 2025) via its social media channels.

During the casting auditions in September 2024, more than 30,000 actors auditioned for the lead roles. Showrunner Francesca Gardiner and executive producer and director Mark Mylod commented in a statement, “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 trio, all relatively new to the film industry, join John Lithgow (Albus Dumbledore), Janet McTeer (Minerva McGonagall), and Paapa Essiedu (Severus Snape) in the cast of the highly anticipated reboot of the series. While this marks Stout’s first major screen role, McLaughlin previously appeared in the upcoming Sky comedy “Grow”, starring Nick Frost and Golda Rosheuvel. Stanton, meanwhile, played the title role in “Matilda the Musical” in the West End from 2023 to 2024.

As reported by the BBC, filming is expected to begin in summer at the Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden and is speculated to air in 2026 on HBO Max. On an interesting note, HBO has disabled its comments section after the announcement of their new casting. What do you think of this golden trio hitting the small screens in 2026?
