[REQ] Untitled Harry Potter Series (2027-)

I think it won't be so successful. People will remember and love the original cast too much. Who could be better than Alan Rickman as Snape? Some proper great, famous british actors filling the teacher roles. And a few race changes will argue the anti-woke bregade which are strong now with the orange man in power!
But they will be able to be more faithful to the books - cut less - 6x45m or 8x45m is going to allow a lot more time vs a 2h film. I recall one book having 3 quidditch games and subpots related to it were dropped - but then the film only had one in it. Presumably it's one season per book. One school year per book. Hopefully they won't film each year every 2-3 years and they'll be 25yr olds playing 16-17y at the end! ala Stranger Things or anything else made these days!

In the last film Daniel was 20-21 Rupert was 21-22 and Emma was 19-20 and they were playing 17-18 year old characters.

As I said before I don't think there's any point in making that series. I'm not big Harry Potter fan, I never read the books, but I saw all 8 movie
I think the series is going to receive a lot of negative criticism (actually, it already is). But I’m sure that when it comes out, it’ll be the most popular show on HBO for weeks. Everyone will hate, but at the same time everyone will watch

Rowling is also controversial - so many hate her now. especially the grown up kids from the previous films - she's not as devisive as fElon - but yeah I'm sure people know what I mean.

I actually saw all the movies before I actually read the books, there's so much missed out of the films that are in the books, and that is what annoys the real fans, the movies opening titles should have said "based on *insert book title here* by JK Rowling"
As an example, they made Ron the comic relief in the movies, and some of the things that Ron said in the books, Hermione says in the movies.
