The First Season Will Be Titled Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone
HBO Max has released the official teaser for the eight-episode first season of the upcoming original Harry Potter series, titled Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, at the HBO Max UK & Ireland launch event. The series will debut Christmas 2026 on HBO and will be available to stream exclusively on HBO Max where it’s available, including recent launch markets in Asia Pacific, Germany, Italy, and the UK & Ireland.
There is nothing special about Harry Potter - at least that's what his Aunt Petunia always says. On his 11th birthday, a letter of admittance to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry opens up a hidden
world for Harry: one of fun, friendship and magic. But with this new adventure comes great risk as Harry is forced to face a dangerous enemy from his past.
