Over 25 years after the first book was published in 1997, Harry Potter has become a multimedia franchise to rival Star Wars and Marvel.

The success of the books led to a film adaptation of Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone in 2001, starring Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson. The remaining six novels in the series were later adapted across seven films, with the last being Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows – Part 2 in 2011.

Since then, the wizarding world has continued on the big screen through the Fantastic Beasts films starring Eddie Redmayne. The franchise also exists on stage with Harry Potter And The Cursed Child, a play set 19 years after the last book.

The IP’s next wave is set to arrive through an upcoming TV reboot on HBO, which was announced in April 2023.
