Harry Potter Returns: First Look as HBO Begins Production

HBO’s long-awaited Harry Potter series has officially started filming at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden in the U.K. Fans finally caught a glimpse Tuesday of Dominic McLaughlin in full Hogwarts robes, glasses, and signature scar — stepping into the shoes of the Boy Who Lived.

The new series is a bold move: seven seasons, one for each book, promising to dive deeper into J.K. Rowling’s world than the films ever could. With a debut planned for 2027 on HBO and Max, it’s the most in-depth rewrite yet.

Alongside McLaughlin, we meet Arabella Stanton as Hermione, Alastair Stout as Ron, and rising stars like Rory Wilmot playing Neville, Amos Kitson as Dudley, Louise Brealey as Madam Hooch, and Anton Lesser as wandmaker Ollivander. Behind the scenes, the show rides on strong names like Francesca Gardiner and director Mark Mylod from Succession.

This reboot marks the first big return to Hogwarts in nearly 14 years since Deathly Hallows – Part 2. With high expectations, HBO promises this will be a “faithful, epic, and detailed” retelling—each episode built with care to carry the magic forward.

Why it matters for fans
This isn’t just nostalgia—it’s a full reboot with careful storytelling, new young cast, and multi-season arcs. Long-time viewers can relive every twist and emotion, while newcomers will get a fresh entry into the Wizarding World.

Bottom line: The first image of Dominic McLaughlin in character is a powerful teaser. It reminds us why Harry Potter captured hearts 25 years ago—and why it still matters. As filming rolls on, fans can expect Hogwarts, spells, and drama—everything that made the originals unforgettable.

Stay tuned—Trend Rage will bring you the next sneak peeks from Hogwarts as soon as they land.
