Pic shows actors chosen to play Harry, Ron, and Hermione in new Harry Potter TV series
The wait is finally over for fans of the beloved Harry Potter franchise! HBO has officially announced the cast for their upcoming TV series, and we couldn’t be more thrilled. The trio of young actors who will be bringing the iconic characters of Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger to life are Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton, and Alastair Stout respectively.
The news comes after HBO’s open casting call last year, which saw over 30,000 actors vying for the coveted roles. The casting process was a long and arduous one, but it seems that HBO has finally found the perfect trio to bring the magical world of Hogwarts to the small screen.
For those who may not be familiar with the franchise, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger are the main protagonists of J.K. Rowling’s beloved book series. The story follows the trio as they navigate the magical world of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, battling against the dark wizard Lord Voldemort and his followers, the Death Eaters.
Dominic McLaughlin, who will be playing the role of Harry Potter, is a relatively new face in the acting world. According to his IMDb profile, this is his breakout role, and we can’t wait to see what he brings to the character. Arabella Stanton, who will be playing Hermione Granger, has previously appeared in several short films and TV shows, and has a strong background in theater. Alastair Stout, who will be playing Ron Weasley, has also had a few small roles under his belt, but this is undoubtedly his biggest break yet.
The full cast list for the HBO series has been announced, and it includes some familiar faces from the wizarding world. The show will also feature a number of new characters, including a young Professor Snape, played by actor Ian Hart, who is best known for his roles in the TV series “Casualty” and “Fresh Meat”.
The news of the casting has sent fans of the franchise into a frenzy, with many taking to social media to express their excitement and support for the new cast. “I’m so excited to see the new Harry Potter series!” tweeted one fan. “I’ve been waiting for this for years! Congratulations to the new cast, I hope you do the books justice!”
Others were quick to point out the differences between the new cast and the original actors who played the roles in the film franchise. “I’m a bit surprised by the casting choices, but I’m willing to give them a chance,” tweeted another fan. “The original cast was amazing, but I think it’s time for a fresh take on the characters.”
Despite the mixed reactions, one thing is certain – the new cast is going to bring a fresh energy to the beloved characters, and we can’t wait to see what they bring to the small screen.
According to the show’s creators, the new series will be a departure from the film franchise, with a new storyline and characters that will appeal to both old and new fans of the franchise. “We’re incredibly excited to bring the magical world of Harry Potter to the small screen,” said the show’s creator in a statement. “We’ve assembled an incredible cast of talented young actors who are going to bring these iconic characters to life in a way that will surprise and delight audiences.”
The new Harry Potter series is set to premiere on HBO later this year, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for this beloved franchise. Whether you’re a longtime fan of the books or a newcomer to the wizarding world, there’s no denying that this is an exciting time for fans of the franchise.
