More casting announces are expected in the coming weeks. Fans are still desperate to see who hbo will cast as the franchise’s most important trio: Harry Potter (previously daniel radcliffe), Hermione Granger (Previously Emma Watson), and Ronald Weasley (Previously Rupert Grint).
‘Harry Potter’ Fans Praise Nick Frost’s Casting
To say the casting for hbo’s Harry Potter Series has been divisive would be an understatement. The fandom is already a prickly one, given JK Rowling’s Tirade of Transphobic tweets which have tarnished the legacy of the franchise for many. Much of the backlash is targeted towards Paapa Essiedu’s Casting as Severus Snape. Although some have also been leveled towards John Lithgow, as an American actor will be playing the distinctly English headmaster of Hogwarts.
Thankfully, the fandom has at least united in support of Nick Frost as Hagrid. “Nick Frost as Hagrid is the Best Harry Potter Casting so far,” wrote @BlackMajikman90 on x, while @Bleached_melon Said, “Nick Frost as Hagrid is actually top tiger casting ngl.” If Spot on as Frost’s Casting is as Hagrid, there are still many who are upset that the series is even being made. Some argue that the HBO reboot is unnecessary, as the original movies are still so beloved and successful. Meanwhile, many more have taken an ardent stand against the show because of JK Rowling’s involvement with the project. The author is serving as an executive producer on the show, and HBO has confirmed that she will be working closely with the studio on the project.
