The two-minute tidbit was released on Wednesday ahead of the launch of the HBO Max UK and Ireland streaming service on Thursday. If there is one thing HBO Max has thrown everything at for the reimagining of this world, it’s the cast. Filling the capes of the trio audiences watched grow up will be Dominic McLaughlin as Harry Potter, Arabella Stanton as Hermione Granger and Alastair Stout as Ron Weasley. Like the film series, HBO Max’s Harry Potter series is being primarily shot at Warner Bros. Studios in Leavesden, Hertfordshire, just north of London.
