Fans have been eagerly awaiting visiting the wizarding world once again with HBO’s upcoming Harry Potter series. The series is still in production, but the makers already have the potential release date.

In a recent interview with Deadline, Casey Bloys, Chairman and CEO of HBO and HBO Max Content, teased the Harry Potter series release date and said, “We’ve been saying 2027.”
