Translated with AI from the Russian original.
A little over a month remains until the premiere.
HBO has released the first full clip from the series “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone”. The video shows the feast in the Great Hall celebrating the start of the school year, which takes place right after the sorting of first-years into houses.
The first season will cover the events of J.K. Rowling’s debut novel. On his eleventh birthday, Harry learns that he is a wizard and receives an invitation to Hogwarts. There, he makes friends for the first time, learns more about his parents’ deaths, and faces an enemy he considered part of his family’s past.
Francesca Gardiner, who worked on “Succession” and “His Dark Materials”, serves as showrunner. Several episodes were directed by Mark Mylod, director of “The Menu” and “Succession”. The cast includes Dominic McLaughlin (Harry Potter), Alastair Stout (Ron Weasley), Arabella Stanton (Hermione Granger), John Lithgow (Albus Dumbledore), Janet McTeer (Minerva McGonagall), Paapa Essiedu (Severus Snape), and Nick Frost (Rubeus Hagrid).
The first season will consist of eight episodes and will premiere on December 25, 2026, on HBO and HBO Max.
