Potential castings for the HBO Max show of JK Rowling's Harry Potter series, estimating 1 season per book/10 years for the complete series. Tried to take ages into account in a sense that groups of characters that would be in similar school years - the Marauders, the Hogwarts founders, the older parents - have similar ages or appear to. An attempt has been made to retain the 'Best of British', and there are still actors I want to use and characters I need to fill but it needs some more thought. I've haven't reused any cast from the films, apart from a couple of exceptions (Miriam Margolyes as the Fat Lady Portrait). Generally speaking all children will be unknowns, the exceptions being the older 2 Weasley boys which I've cast. I've also cast previously unseen characters intending that a TV show will allow greater depth into showing stories about the Marauders, the Peverell Brothers, The Founders, Death Eaters, Gaunts, Muggle Ministry etc.
