Harry Potter: Reboot with a new cast is said to be planned [Gerücht]
The Harry Potter brand seems a little disoriented after the failures of the Fantastic Beasts series. Now a report has emerged that the Harry Potter film series is about to get a real reboot.
The news comes from the Twitter account wdwpro, which tweeted plans to reboot the Harry Potter films. Warner Bros. reportedly not only wants to restart the Harry Potter film series – of course, a new cast should also be used. The target window is a publication in three to five years.

The YouTube channel Valliant Renegade had more information to add to the rumor. The new films should by no means be just another spin-off similar to Fantastic Beasts. Rather, it is intended to be a reinterpretation of the original story. This new version is to be realized with new actors for the classic characters. However, the project is said to be in a very early stage of development.
An interesting statement relates to the nature of the reboot: “The way they’re rebooting this franchise doesn’t have to be the standard reboot where we return to the origin of the character that we’ve already adventured with. It there are many different ways they could do it […]”
Warner Bros. is also insinuated that the reboot is only being planned to revitalize the brand for a younger audience: “They feel that the original Harry Potter fan base is getting old and they want to revitalize the brand or refresh or do something new to attract new audiences to the theaters.” And further: “”And because they weren’t able to get the other stuff, these secondary stuff, off the ground and get the momentum that they had with the originals, they think it’s about time for Hollywood is to overcome the fear of remakes, and that’s why they’re ready to do that.”
