'Harry Potter' TV series adaptation deal close to being locked, Potter heads excited.
According to Variety citing Bloomberg, the days to raise your wands again are closer than you expected. Warner Bros will soon lock the deal for the HP television series. The talk in the town started when discussions around the adaptation of 'Harry Potter' books caught attention. Books were already adapted into full-length movies. Studio has already released a few spin-offs like 'Fantastic Beasts' movies but this time a completely different plan is on the table.
Warner Bros has always dreamed of the 'Harry Potter' television series and the discussion caught fire in 2021. The potter heads are excited as well as nervous about the quality of experience that can't be re-delivered now. The involvement of J.K Rowling in the creation process is on cards for sure but a source close to the media house suggests that she won't be working as a showrunner.
