"Is it a retelling of the books? As in following the kids all the way from Philosophers Stone? Or is it set afterwards?" I am not sure, it seems to be a story from each of the books that will become a decade long series, so there will be many episodes of it, which is good too. | |||

"Setting aside JKRs issues, is this even needed? There are many other book series that are crying out to be adapted " Harry Potter is a cashcow that needs to be milked. This was inevitable as soon as they had to bin Fantastic Beasts. They won't risk more offshoots failing so fall back on the safe option of a remake | |||

Would like to see a series based on the Metro books .. though I guess at moment no on has the stomach for something Russian based | |||

"Is it a retelling of the books? As in following the kids all the way from Philosophers Stone? Or is it set afterwards?" It's meant to be a total restart. The reason for JKR being an executive producer and being on board for it is she's demanded that if it happens it needs to be true to the books - unlike the movies were with some details. I'm excited for it! It's fairly obvious I'm a HP fan. - Dumble x | |||

"I'd rather see a gritty, 18-rated, gory series about Harry's career as an Auror. Loads of swearing and sectumsempra shit going on. Luthor style baddies. Staring Daniel Radcliffe obviously. Xx" One ofvthevthings I hate about the films is all the Auror's are cool, anti establishment types. Ajdvthen they flash forward to the future and there are Ron and Harry looking like a pair of accountants struggling with the notion of dress down Friday. They just wouldn't have turned out like that! | |||

"The Stephen King Dark Tower series would make for a great show, can't be worse than the film at least." The Dark Tower series was brilliant until the ending of the last book, it got shoved on the shelf never to be read again | |||
