Harry Potter TV series cast announced

HBO has announced the list of actors chosen for roles in the upcoming Harry Potter series.

At the moment, the performers of six roles are known:

  • Albus Dumbledore: John Lithgow.
  • Minerva McGonagall: Janet McTeer.
  • Severus Snape: Paapa Essiedu.
  • Hagrid: Nick Frost.
  • Quirinus Quirrell: Luke Tallon.
  • Argus Filch: Paul Whitehouse.

Fans of the franchise were indignant after the announcement, noting that only one of the six actors has any kind of name. In addition, the choice of a black actor for the role of the Potions professor also looks very strange.

Filming of the series will begin this year, and the premiere of the first season is scheduled for 2026.
