As a lifelong Potterhead who grew up with Ginny Weasley as my favorite supporting character, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and apprehension at the news of HBO’s upcoming Harry Potter series. Bonnie Wright’s words resonate deeply with me, especially her desire to see more of Ginny and Harry’s relationship unfold on screen.
As a devoted Harry Potter fan who once brought Ginny Weasley to life on screen, Bonnie Wright, my fellow alumna, has shared her heartfelt wishes for the upcoming TV adaptation by HBO based on J.K. Rowling’s cherished book series.
What did Bonnie Wright say about the Harry Potter series?
In a recent interview, Wright discussed HBO’s upcoming live-action Harry Potter series, expressing her desire for it to delve deeper into Ginny and Harry’s relationship. She particularly wants it to highlight the subtle, book-based moments that demonstrate how their characters grow to love each other.
As a fellow game enthusiast, I’d put it like this: “I’m thrilled about diving deeper into the relationship between Ginny and Harry,” said the producer (via Variety). “There are intricate instances where they start to fall in love, and it’s fascinating to watch. I hope we get to see more of her transformation from a supportive companion to Harry, someone who truly grasps his journey, his heart, and ultimately turns out to be the perfect partner for him. I can’t wait to witness this character growth – not just hers, but many others as well. If only we could have had longer movies, there are so many characters like Neville and Luna with moments from the books that I adore. As a fan of the series, I eagerly anticipate more.”
The Harry Potter series for HBO is being penned by Emmy-winning producer Francesca Gardiner (known for Killing Eve and Succession), who is jointly producing with Mark Mylod, J.K. Rowling, Neil Blair, Ruth Kenley-Letts, and veteran Harry Potter franchise producer David Heyman. Additionally, Mylod, who has collaborated with HBO on Game of Thrones and The Last of Us, will direct several episodes. This production is a collaboration between HBO, Brontë Film and TV, and Warner Bros. Television.
The project spans a whole decade, with each season dedicated to bringing one book from J.K. Rowling’s famous series, “Harry Potter,” to life on screen. Books included are “The Philosopher’s Stone,” “Chamber of Secrets,” “Prisoner of Azkaban,” “Goblet of Fire,” “Order of the Phoenix,” “Half-Blood Prince,” and “Deathly Hallows.” A fresh cast will be introduced to captivate a new era of fans, offering intricate details and beloved characters that have enthralled readers for more than two decades.
