The Harry Potter Show's Rumored Hagrid Casting Could Capitalize On Star Power, But It's Risky

As development on the upcoming Harry Potter TV show continues, more rumored castings pop up everywhere, and a recent one regarding Hagrid shows how the series can capitalize on star power, even though it’s also a risky move. The world of Harry Potter continued living after the saga’s end with the trilogy Fantastic Beasts, which couldn’t match the success and popularity of the main saga. The story of The Boy Who Lived is now getting a new adaptation but as a TV series, set to be released on Max.
The Harry Potter TV remake was first reported in 2021 but wasn’t confirmed to be in development until April 2023. At the time of writing, the Harry Potter TV series is in the process of finding its cast, and while thousands of kids and young actors are auditioning to play the main trio, well-known names are being rumored to play the older characters.
