Ever since the Harry Potter show was announced, one of the most talked about topics about this reboot has been what cast it will have, so now we’ve decided to create our own fan cast
On April 12, 2023, it was confirmed that the series based on the Harry Potter universe has finally entered production, and on February 23, 2024, the CEO of Discovery by Warner Bros, David Zaslavhe said the program would achieve Maximum in 2026. However, it will later be announced that this reboot will become a production of HBOand it was also hinted at the possibility that the series of Harry Potter moves to early 2027.
Although it seems like we still have a long way to go to see what the people involved in the project have in store for us, the truth is that time passes very quickly, and that’s why we think it’s the right time to share our cast of fans of the new version of Harry Potter. This list does not contain the actors who would play the younger characters, since they will obviously be children with little or no experience in the world of entertainment.
Another point to take into consideration is probably for the selection of new cast of harry potter The same rule as in the original films applies, i.e. the idea is to look for British or Irish actors. Before we get started with the Harry Potter list, it’s important to comment that this fan cast was created before it was reported that HBO wanted it Marco Rylance sea Albus Dumbledore.
