A ‘Harry Potter’ Remake is in Work
Debuting in 2001 with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone based on the books of the same name by J. K. Rowling — who has tanked her reputation since with transphobic rhetoric — the movie spawned seven more sequels, numerous games, and more, kicking off a trend of studios focusing on established YA IPs to make movies like The Twilight franchise, The Hunger Games franchise. The movie also catapulted its stars Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson to international fame. Recently Warner Bros Discovery has announced the remake of the franchise with a seven-season plan for Max. The decision came as the new regime at WBD looks to create a new streaming strategy based on existing IPs. While the development details are scarce at the moment due to the strikes, it’ll be curious to the treatment of the series.
The new Lego sets will be available to Lego Insiders on September 1 with a general launch on September 4. Check out the new sets below:
