They join the adult cast of John Lithgow as Professor Albus Dumbledore, Janet McTeer as Professor Minerva McGonagall, Paapa Essiedu as Professor Severus Snape, and Nick Frost as Rubeus Hagrid. Each season will cover a different book in the Wizarding World saga, starting with The Sorcerer’s Stone. Francesca Gardiner will showrun the series alongside director Mark Mylod.
