The first Harry Potter movie was a manageable two and a half hours long, but the upcoming HBO series will expand the story of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone over eight hour-long episodes. This means the show will likely go beyond the original book, adding new scenes and details. Actor Lox Pratt, who plays Draco Malfoy, revealed that the series will delve into characters’ personal lives, like Draco’s home life and the private lives of the Hogwarts teachers. While expanding the Potter universe was expected given the longer format, it seems to contradict claims that the show will be a more faithful adaptation than the films. The show might need to invent new storylines to fill all those episodes, especially in the early seasons. This could be a good thing, offering fresh perspectives, or it could feel like fan-created content. It makes you wonder what the teachers are really doing in their free time – hopefully, there’s a spell to help with grading!
