JK Rowling's agent denies Harry Potter TV series rumors

On Tuesday, July 2, WGTC broke the news that according to their internal sources, Warner is preparing to shoot a TV series of the Harry Potter series in preparation for its own streaming video service. Although it sounds exciting, fans are better not to get their hopes up.

The acting spokesperson for JK Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series, said in response to inquiries from multiple foreign media on the 3rd: "There are currently no plans to make the Harry Potter series into a TV series, and any related reports are purely speculation."

The news of the TV series spread so quickly because television has become the last major entertainment medium that the Harry Potter wizarding world has not yet set foot in. The original seven books are more than enough to cope with 70 hours of television content, and the entire wizarding world created is also suitable for adaptation into a TV series, after all, it can tell more details than the movie.

The war of streaming media has already begun. Disney, Amazon, and Netflix all have their own well-known works. For example, Amazon recently announced that it has obtained the adaptation rights of the classic masterpiece "Lord of the Rings". I believe Warner Bros. will definitely welcome and desire the "Harry Potter" TV series. It all depends on how they negotiate with JK Rowling.
