So guess who just popped out of the Room of Requirement and decided to drop some ✨tea✨ hotter than a Hungarian Horntail’s breath? That’s right—J.K. “The Original Wand Waver” Rowling is officially talking about the new Harry Potter HBO Max series, and girllll… it’s giving Gryffindor gossip with a side of Expelli-no-chill.
👀 So what’s the sitch? Well, Mama Rowling hit X (formerly known as Twitter, currently known as “that app we’re all too emotionally attached to”) and basically said, “Yeah, I saw the first two episodes and they SLAY. Like, triple So’s worth of SLAY. SO, SO, SO GOOD.”
Fans were like, “Wait sis, did you write it?”
To which she replied, “LOL no, but I’ve been hovering over the writers like a Dementor in Prada. I’m involved. Just… not with a quill.”
So no, she’s not writing the series—but she’s executive producing, aka doing CEO-level magic behind the scenes while sipping pumpkin spice lattes and critiquing wand choreography. ✍️✨
💥Filming kicks off this summer at Warner Bros. Studios in England—yes, the same sacred land where the original cast once got sorted, snogged, and slayed trolls in bathrooms. A whole new Gen Z cast is stepping into the robes, and we are one glitter cape away from losing our minds.
📆 NO RELEASE DATE YET but let’s be honest—we’re already clearing our 2026 schedules for this magical chaos.
🔮 TL;DR:
J.K. didn’t write it.
She loved it.
It’s coming.
We’re feral.
Let the sorting hat drama commence. 🧙♂️🪄
