Warner Bros. Discovery announced that they will turn J.K. Rowling’s seven Harry Potter novels into a series that will run for a decade, but is another remake really necessary or simply just lazy? 📷: Stefan Simonovski/Alamy
will turn Rowling’s seven Potter novels into a series that will run for a decade. All the main characters will be recast, and the series, in theory, will allow Max to adapt the books in more detail than the Warner Bros. feature films did.
OK, sure. But why? As a Star Wars fan, I get the desire to return to your favorite world time and time again. But this isn’t Max making a new series based on previously unexplored characters; it’s Disney+ turninginto a season of television. The eight Potter movies that already exist run nearly 20 hours as it is.
about trans people. Any person—actor, director, scriptwriter—who signs on to this new series will, and should, be asked about Rowling’s views and their involvement in a show she’s an executive producer of. So maybe this is about Rowling after all. Because although this forthcoming series feels like a retread of material that already exists, it’s also one that comes from someone who has made comments many people find hurtful. When Casey Bloys, content CEO for HBO and Max CEO, was asked at yesterday’s press event whether he thought Rowling’s views would make it hard to hire talent for the series, he declined to comment, saying it wasn’t the forum to do so.
