HBO Max has announced the official season two green light for the upcoming original Harry Potter series, ahead of the Christmas 2026 debut of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. The second season is scheduled to begin production this Autumn. The series will be available to stream exclusively on HBO Max.
Jon Brown (HBO’s Succession, The Franchise), who is a Writer on season one, has been elevated to Co-Showrunner for season two.
Francesca Gardiner quote: “As we have laid out our plans for the overlapping production schedules to finish season one by Christmas and to return to production for season two this Autumn, it has become clear that bringing on a Co-Showrunner is the key to maintaining our momentum. I’ve loved working with Jon from the very first day we met on Succession through to these recent times together on Harry Potter. Not only do I have huge admiration for his writing, but he’s also a brilliant collaborator and a lovely person. We are lucky to have him.”
Jon Brown quote: “I’m incredibly excited to be collaborating with Francesca as Co-Showrunner. It has been a joy to write on Philosopher’s Stone and I’d like to thank Francesca and HBO for putting their faith in me to continue this remarkable journey. Seems you’re never too old to get your invitation to Hogwarts.”
Season one logline: There is nothing special about Harry Potter – at least that’s what his Aunt Petunia always says. On his 11th birthday, a letter of admittance to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry opens up a hidden world for Harry: one of fun, friendship and magic. But with this new adventure comes great risk as Harry is forced to face a dangerous enemy from his past.
The series, based on J.K. Rowling’s beloved books, is written and executive produced by Francesca Gardiner. Mark Mylod serves as Executive Producer and directed multiple episodes of the series for HBO in association with Brontë Film and TV and Warner Bros. Television. The series is executive produced by J.K. Rowling, Neil Blair, and Ruth Kenley-Letts of Brontë Film and TV, and David Heyman of Heyday Films.
