Warner Bros. Television has officially announced the start of open casting for the upcoming film in the Harry Potter universe. Applications will be accepted until October 31 of this year.

The application process involves filling out an online application, submitting recent photographs and recording a short audition video. The exact requirements for videos and photographs are published on the official casting website.

Representatives from Warner Bros. emphasize that the new series will offer a fresh interpretation of the story, while remaining faithful to the original books by J.K. Rowling. Plot details are being kept secret for now. The start date for production and premiere of the series has not yet been announced. A pre-production period is expected to follow once casting is complete, with filming expected to begin next year.
