As the Hogwarts Headmaster, Dumbledore (now played by Richard Harris) keeps an eye on everyone, while Harry and his pals attempt to solve a mystery involving a giant three-headed dog and the magical Sorcerer’s Stone.After seven books, eight films, a theme park, and the creation of a veritable merchandising empire, you can hardly blame the Harry Potter production team for wanting to go out on a high note with the final installment of the beloved film franchise. Upon entering the school, he meets his new BFFs, Ron Weasley ( Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger ( Emma Watson), and immediately draws the ire of his potions teacher, the mysterious Severus Snape (Alan Rickman). That all changes with the arrival of a mysterious owl bringing exciting news: Harry is a wizard and he has been accepted into Hogwarts to begin his magical training.

Currently, 9 of the films in the wizarding franchise are available on either Peacock or HBO Max, with the exceptions being the first two Fantastic Beasts films. The Harry Potter films are constantly shifting their streaming home between Peacock and HBO Max, sometimes the franchise is streaming on both services at the same time. Thus, the franchise was extended into the Wizarding World shared universe, which now includes not only the eight original Harry Potter movies but also the trilogy of Fantastic Beasts spinoff films.
wasn’t about to close up shop on their magical cash cow.
You might have assumed that the world of Harry Potter had reached its cinematic end when Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 wrapped up the boy wizard’s story in 2011, but Warner Bros.
