Harry Potter returns with a reboot series

With Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter is surely one of the most popular licenses among the general public.. Between the release of the books, then the films, before moving on to spin-offs and even video games, the wizarding world created by JK Rowling has had plenty of time to convince several different generations. However, the figures for the last films focused on the character of Norbert Scamander did not really live up to the myth. But while we could have imagined that the producers would be discouraged about the potential of the saga in the coming years, Warner Bros. and JK Rowling tried everything a little over a year ago.

Indeed, in April 2023, a new series from the Harry Potter universe has been made official by Warner Bros.. More than twelve years after the end of the original saga in the cinema, a reboot will therefore arrive on the small screen via the platform Max (HBO). For the moment, little information has been revealed concerning the latter, but the project is obviously still in progress.

Daniel Radcliffe warns producers

While the world was just waiting to see what would become Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson et Rupert Grint At the end of filming for the Harry Potter saga in 2011, the trio of main actors did not really shine on the big screen. All three still continued their respective careers on the big screen, but apart from Emma Watson, we can’t really say that they played in many other films. However, it would be completely wrong to say that they have disappeared from public life. In addition to her acting career, Emma Watson has also been involved in various political and charitable organizations. Rupert Grint, for his part, headed to the small screen in smaller-scale productions, and Daniel Radcliffe found his happiness on the stage of the theater.

Moreover, the actor that many will forever associate with the wizard with the scar was a few days ago at the ceremony of Tony Awards, which rewards the best theatrical productions. There is also won the Tony for Best Supporting Actor in a Musical for his character Charley in Merrily We Roll Alongand was interviewed by ET on this occasion. Among the questions he was asked, one obviously concerned the future Harry Potter series produced by Warner Bros. When asked if he had any advice for the new actors who will play the leading trio, Daniel Radcliffe replied:

No, but I have advice for everyone else: let them be kids. I can’t imagine what that experience would have been like in the age of social media. We were just a little before. Hopefully I’ll meet the producers one day and be able to give them this advice face to face.

When we see to what extent Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint were starified and to what extent they immediately wanted to move away from their iconic roles after 2011, we understand the advice given by the British actor. Growing up as a child actor has always been a particularly thorny subject: from Natalie Portman to Millie Bobby Brown via Emma Watson, there are many cases that remind us of this. It remains to be seen whether it will be possible for the producers of the new series to put this advice into action.
