The casting directors, Lucy Bevan and Emily Brockmann, conducted an extensive search, reviewing thousands of auditions to find the right actors to embody the beloved characters. The series aims to be a faithful adaptation of J.K. Rowling's novels, with each season dedicated to one book in the series. Filming is scheduled to commence later this year, with the series expected to premiere on HBO in 2026.
