At least they broke the Hollywood trend of ginger hate. Otherwise,

Seems like they nailed it with Ron and Harry. Hermione seems a little off but not terrible casting.

I suppose it could be worse for those that were freaking out about the casting

Man I feel for these kids already especially the girl playing Hermione the toxic shite they're about to have to deal with especially if the show isn't good

I'm sure they are all thrilled as can be, its the opportunity of a lifetime that people work their whole lives for and don't get.
But yeah...things could get toxic quick, and you know that reporters are going to go out of their way to ask 12 year olds political questions re: JK Rowling

Kirkland Signature brand Potter trio.
Seems like they didn't have the guts to actually make Hermione black so they did some sorta mixed.
These kids are kinda in a bad spot through no fault of their own as they'll always be seen as imposters.
Nothing about this show gives me good vibes.

They look so young, but I understand that's the point.

Hermione seems a little off but not terrible casting.
She uses magic to make herself pretty during Goblet of Fire

They nailed it and didn’t cast her as black

The casting of Ron seems substantially more book accurate just based on a picture.
Ron was much less of a nerd than movie Ron

Harry and Ron look a little too clean cut in this pic. Just nit picking as I'm sure they will roughen their look up a bit for the show.

I think this is just a cast pic and not anything from set

Those poor kids are about to be drug into a world of culture war nonsense.
Posted on 5/27/25 at 10:35 am to dawgfan24348
Are they setting this in the 90s or just doing a vague no specific time period type of thing

Does anyone know yet if the series will have a different looking set for Hogwarts? Like instead of the iconic castle and main hall seen in the movies, they will use a different layout.

Yeah, you know these reporters have absolutely no shame, and are going to go after them to get soundbites regarding JK's politics

You aren't kidding sadly. They will be asked more questions about Rowling and transgenderism than they will the show.

That looks like AI.
They couldn't go totally black with Hermione, I guess, but mission still accomplished.
ETA: oops, SR beat me to it.
