Since HBO confirmed that a "Harry Potter" TV series was in the works, fans have been wondering just how big the show might be, as what we knew about the "Potter" series was limited. Would it be a modest, nostalgic retread of the books? Or something far more ambitious? Based on new comments from actor Nick Frost, who’s stepping into the iconic role of Rubeus Hagrid, it sounds like HBO is aiming for something massive. Think "Game of Thrones" scale. And honestly? I couldn’t be more pumped for the upcoming book-to-screen adaptation.
In a recent interview with Collider to promote his 2025 movie schedule release, the live-action remake of "How to Train Your Dragon," Frost dropped a few juicy details about what the filming schedule for the "Harry Potter" series will look like. It’s no quick gig. According to the "Attack the Block" actor, each season is expected to take 10 to 11 months to shoot, nearly a full year of production per season. That’s not your average TV timeline. That’s the kind of heavy-duty, cinematic commitment usually reserved for epic franchises with sprawling worlds and ensemble casts.
