'Harry Potter' Series Shares First Official Teaser, Confirms All Seven Release Dates

Fans waiting for HBO’s upcoming Harry Potter series have a while yet before they can set their eyes upon the all-new wizarding world. Production might be officially underway, with over 20 cast members announced so far, but a release window is yet to be set.

Fortunately, there’s another Harry Potter series coming this year: Harry Potter: The Full-Cast Audio Editions. A new teaser shared by Audible reveals several voice actors, including Hugh Laurie (House) as Albus Dumbledore, Riz Ahmed (The Night Of) as Severus Snape, Michelle Gomez (The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) as Minerva McGonagall, and Matthew Macfadyen (Deadpool & Wolverine) as Tom Riddle/Lord Voldemort.

The young cast, however, comes with a twist. Alongside Max Lester as Ron Weasley and Frankie Treadaway as Harry Potter, Arabella Stanton, who’s already been cast as Hermione Granger in the upcoming HBO series, will also bring Hogwarts’ brightest witch to life in audio form.

Treadway, Lester, and Stanton will play Harry, Ron, and Hermione in the first three audiobooks (Sorcerer’ Stone through Prisoner of Azkaban) — Jaxon Knopf, Rhys Mulligan, and Nina Barker-Francis will take on the roles starting with Goblet of Fire.

Cush Jumbo (The Good Wife) is the narrator. Additional cast members will be announced this fall. Watch the official teaser from Audible below:
