Warner Bros TV is highly interested in Harry Potter franchise plans to release a tv series soon. New CEO David Zaslav has spoken about the organisation’s ‘intellectual property’ followed with its major franchises. What’s more, he’s spoken of Harry Potter and how there’s been no film in its franchise over the last 15 years. With that, the organisation has now put up on a hint that the company might soon release a tv series based out on Harry Potter.

The Chairwoman and CEO Channing Dungey has said, “There is a tremendous amount of ambition for that and we are engaged in a number of different conversations,” She also added that there’s a lot of passion and interest onto it and affirmed for a tv series soon.

She said, “What’s great is that you see how the audience is so engaged and so ready. Our unscripted team did a fantastic Return To Hogwarts special for HBO last year, that resonated so tremendously, then we did a quiz show, The Tournament Of Houses, that Helen Mirren was the host for,” She added, “The audience is ready, they want to go, so we’re just to figure out what the right next step is.”

She further revealed, “One of the interesting things that’s exciting for me at this moment, the approach of the previous management was much more like ‘Everything has to stay in house, we don’t want anything to go outside,’” and added, “David Zaslav has been much more open to our exploring all of our animated IP and being able to do it on different platforms. Certainly HBO Max is going to be our first stop but we’re already in the process of closing a big deal with Amazon that’s going to feature some of our DC-branded content in animation.” As quoted by Avclub.
