๐ง Harry Potter Series Trailer Breaks All Records
The first look at HBO's new adaptation of the "boy who lived" story created a genuine sensation.
The Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone series trailer racked up over 277 million organic views in its first 48 hours, becoming the most-watched in HBO and Max history.
Season one covers J.K. Rowling’s first book entirely, with each novel planned for its own season.
Viewers get a completely recast production. Hagrid is played by Nick Frost, Dumbledore by John Lithgow, Professor McGonagall by Janet McTeer, and Severus Snape by Paapa Essiedu.
The footage showcases classic moments: meeting Ron and Hermione, the Sorting Hat, Herbology lessons, and the first Gryffindor broom flight.
Francesca Gardiner (Succession) serves as showrunner, with Mark Mylod (Game of Thrones) directing several episodes.
Premiere is set for Christmas 2026.
