The next Harry Potter audio books have an A-List distribution which is much more impressive than the HBO television series
The news that the discovery of Warner Bros. Harry Potter The HBO franchise has encountered an expected level of skepticism on the part of fans. However, there was still a lot of excitement to see which powerful British actors would be recruited to give life to the sorcerer world of JK Rowling.
Although the next television series has assembled an impressive set composed of names like John Lithgow, Janet McTeer, Paapa Essiedu and Nick Frost, the Harry Potter The restart is lacking on the talents of list A and, in the end, is a TV level cast (Hope is that Voldemort will be played by a huge star).
Pottermore publishing and audible, meanwhile, continue to add to the list of actors working on his Harry Potter: Audio editions Complete casting With a heavy striker after a heavy striker.
As we first report on sffgazette.com, The latest additions include Kit Harington as Professor Lockhart, Keira Knightley as Professor Umbridge, Iwan Rheon as Professor Lupine, Ruth Wilson As Bellatrix Lestarange, Ambika Mod as Nymphadora Tonks, Leo Woodall As Bill Weasley, Simon Pegg as Arthur Weasley, James McAvoy as Mad-Eye Moody, Gemma Whelan as teacher Sprout, and Matt Berry that Sir Cadogan.

Frankie Treadaway, Max Lester and Arabella Stanton will represent Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, with Jaxon Knopf, Rhys Mulligan and Nina Barker-Francis by assuming the roles of Harry, Ron and Hermione, respectively, from four books.
In terms of adult players, the difference between this distribution and the HBO television series is amazing. The discovery of Warner Bros. Just didn’t want to pay big names for a 10-year commitment, or was it a deliberate decision not to populate the wizarding world with familiar faces?
This is difficult to say, but it is just as likely that the wired network had trouble selling more important names on a story of already classic films.
