Boy wizard Harry Potter is headed to streaming television in a new series based on the beloved books by author J.K. Rowling.
Warner Bros Discovery announced the serie as part of the company's plans for its Max streaming service, which combines HBO Max with unscripted programming from Discovery.
The seven Harry Potter books have sold more than 600 million copies worldwide.
They were adapted into blockbuster movies starring Daniel Radcliffe that grossed $7.7 billion globally from 2001 to 2011.
Other new shows coming to Max include a new "Game of Thrones" prequel, titled "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight," with author George R.R. Martin serving as executive producer.
