Harry Potter Franchise Expands with New TV Series and Video Adaptations.

Warner Bros. Discovery is reportedly in talks to create a TV series based on J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books, with each season focusing on one of the seven books. Rowling is said to be involved in the Max Original series to ensure the content is loyal to her books. The potential series is part of Warner Bros. Discovery's plan to focus on existing franchises, and could be a cornerstone of a new streaming strategy to be announced next week. The Harry Potter franchise has previously spawned 8 films, a spinoff movie franchise, a Broadway show, a popular video game, and theme park attractions.
