Warner Bros. and Max’s Harry Potter The series adaptation is getting closer to acquiring its creative leader, and the talent pool is down to three names. One of those finalists for the concert is Succession writer Francesca Gardiner. Seems like a solid choice since she has also worked on projects like His Dark Materials AND Kill Eve.
Other writers who have been in the running for the job include Martha Hillier (The Last Kingdom), Kathleen Giordano (Teenage bounty hunters), Tom Moran (The devil’s hour), AND Michael Lesslie (Macbeth, Assassin’s Creed). It is unknown which of the other two writers is still in the running.
All of these writers were commissioned by Max to create proposals for a series that reflected their take on the intellectual property. There may even be an opportunity for more than one of these writers to be involved in the series. The report also states that “Max is open to the possibility of developing more than one idea based on Harry Potter.”
Harry Potter creator JK Rowling is also very involved in this presentation process. She previously said: “Max’s commitment to preserving the integrity of my books is important to me and I look forward to being part of this new adaptation which will allow for a degree of depth and detail only offered by a television series long lasting”. .”
The series will cast young actors in the roles of the main characters and will be released over the next ten years.

Harry Potter is a cultural phenomenon and it’s clear that there is such an enduring love and thirst for the wizarding world. In collaboration with Warner Bros. Television and JK Rowling, this new Max Original series will delve into each of the iconic books that fans have continued to appreciate all these years.
