The New Harry Potter: A Magical Universe Expands on TV and Streaming

In recent years, fans of the wizarding world have been eagerly anticipating what's next for the beloved Harry Potter franchise. With the latest installment of the Fantastic Beasts prequel series, Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, hitting theaters in April, it seems that the era of magical filmmaking might be coming to a close on the big screen. However, this doesn't mean that the magic will disappear entirely.

In fact, WarnerMedia and HBO Max are reportedly exploring new ways to bring the Harry Potter universe to life through television and streaming. According to Discovery International president Gerhard Zeiler's recent RTS London keynote, the company is focusing on developing franchises, including the iconic wizarding world.

This news comes as a welcome surprise for fans who have been eagerly awaiting updates on the franchise's future. For those who have been following the series' journey through different streaming services, it may be refreshing to know that all eight Harry Potter films are now streaming back on Peacock. However, it's likely that they will continue to appear on HBO Max as well, as the two streamers seem to be engaged in a game of quaffle-passing between each other.

In addition to the movies, fans can also look forward to new content from J.K. Rowling, who is rumored to be developing new material for HBO Max. This news has undoubtedly revived talk of a potential live-action TV series, which was previously reported to be in early development back in January 2021.

While there's no official confirmation on the details of this new project, it's clear that Warner Bros. and Discovery are eager to expand the Harry Potter universe beyond just films. With the success of shows like Game of Thrones and DC Comics already under their belt, it's exciting to think about what kind of magical adventures might be in store for fans of the wizarding world.

As Ron Weasley would say, this news is indeed 'wicked!' With the possibilities endless and the magic of Harry Potter showing no signs of fading, it's an exciting time to be a fan of the franchise. Stay tuned for further updates on the latest developments from Warner Bros. and HBO Max!
