Fans of the Harry Potter universe are waiting in anticipation. HBO has started publishing more and more details about the upcoming series based on the works of British writer J.K. Rowling.

So recently, while talking to journalists about upcoming projects, HBO and Max streaming CEO Casey Bloys told Collider when the TV show is expected to be released. According to him, fans should not expect its debut before 2027.

Bloys explained this by the long and complicated process of writing the script and casting the actors. Both are currently in the early stages, so he could not give a more precise timeframe.

One of the main problems he mentioned is the maturation of the main actors, which the show's team will inevitably face. Therefore, according to Bloys, the seasons will need to be filmed without long breaks between them to minimize the appearance of such changes.

"One of the ideas we talked about is shooting seasons one and two very close together in time, because kids, you know, from 11 to 13, it's a big leap in kids' lives," the HBO head explained. Another similar period, he called the age of the actors from 13 to 15 years old. So now the series' management has to think about filming its seasons intensively and not waiting for the actors to grow up.

When asked whether the seasons of the Harry Potter series will be released once a year or whether any other scheme is possible, Bloys said that it all depends on the readiness of the script. For the time being, the company is leaving the door open to various options.

Meanwhile, rumors continue to circulate in the press about who might play key adult roles in the show. Thus, Variety reported that Oscar winner Mark Rylance is at the top of the list of actors who are to be seen in the role of Dumbledore. Negotiations with him have not yet begun, but the studio has already contacted him to assess his interest in the project and his availability. HBO responded to a request for comment by saying that they would confirm the details only after all the relevant agreements are finalized.
