The 2025 Max Showcase was held in London on Thursday night local time.

It was announced at the event that the new Harry Potter TV series would commence filming at Leavesden Studios (where all eight HP films were shot) in northern summer of 2025.

On Wednesday, JB Perrette, CEO and President of Global Streaming for Warner Bros. Discovery, said at a tech and media conference that the Harry Potter TV series is now expected to premiere in 2027.

Will Harry Potter still be a thing by 2027?

Well, the hope would be to introduce it to a completely new audience and extend its life. The same way they have made a Lord of the Rings TV series following all the movies.

If they do it well, the characters can go on forever. Like Dr Who, James Bond, Star Trek, Batman or other long running franchises.
