There are major franchises, and then there's the Wizarding World. Generations grew up with the Harry Potter movies and books, as well as theme parks, stage plays, and more. J.K. Rowling's franchise is getting another book to screen adaptation with the upcoming Harry Potter TV show, and a Game of Thrones favorite recently replaced Nicholas Hoult as Gilderoy Lockhart for Season 2. Let's break it all down.
What we know about the Harry Potter TV show is limited, but its expected to be more faithful to the source material than the movies (which are streaming with a HBO Max subscription). A report by Deadline confirmed that Hoult dropped out due to "scheduling conflicts" opening the door for none other than Kit Harington aka Jon Snow taking on that iconic role.
