The special program was taped at Warner Bros. Studio Tour London and is set to premiere on January 1, 2022. The reunion is organised to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the eight-movie series that started with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, which was released in November 2001. According to the logline, “The retrospective special will tell an enchanting making-of story through all-new in-depth interviews and cast conversations, inviting fans on a magical first-person journey through one of the most beloved film franchises of all time.” Now, I’m really excited!

According to the press release, Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts will also feature Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange), Robbie Coltrane (Rubeus Hagrid), Ralph Fiennes (Tom Riddle aka Lord Voldemort), Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy), Gary Oldman (Sirius Lupin), Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy), James Phelps and Oliver Phelps (Fred and George Weasley), Mark Williams (Arthur Weasley), Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley), Alfred Enoch (Dean Thomas), Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) and Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood) who were also the part of the Harry Potter series. However, J.K. Rowling, the author of the book series, will not be interviewed in the special program because of her being surrounded by controversy related to her anti-trans comments. Although she will be shown in archival footage about the movies.

A few days ago, HBO Max also released a short trailer that didn’t include Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, or Rupert Grint, but teased other alumni like Coltrane who played the role of Hagrid, and Lewis who played the character of Neville Longbottom receiving their invitations to attend the special reunion.
