Harry Potter
The forthcoming HBO remake of theHarry Potterseries could settle a long - running proceeds surrounding the original books and movie , but this advance may be too risky . Warmer Bros and HBO have advertised the new boob tube show as a book - faithful adaptation , but there are still limited particular regarding how the series will be approached . The company heard out a variety of pitches from writer , and Francesca Gardiner and Mark Mylod were at long last prefer . Of naturally , the populace does n’t yet know what form of spirit this duo choose for their newHarry Potterseries , and there are a fistful of possibility .
There were similar questions when Warner Bros first began adaptingHarry Potterto the blind in the 1990s . A fistful of writers and director were considered to lead the project , but it ultimately fall toChris Columbus to adaptHarry Potter and the Philosopher ’s Stone . This film director ’s vision for The Wizarding World demonstrate the franchise , but another person take to add Harry ’s taradiddle to the screen , David Fincher , would have lead an all different direction . TheFight Clubdirector envisioned a much darkerHarry ceramicist , and this brings up an challenging dubiousness — what could a dark , game telly remaking accomplish ?
A Darker Harry Potter Series Would Fix The “It’s For Kids” Controversy
A More Mature Harry Potter Would Be Aimed Specifically At Adults
It ’s perfectly possible that Gardiner and Mylod design to bring a darker version of Harry ’s story to Max . TheHarry Potterbooks and film were target at children and teens , but that does n’t necessarily mean the HBO remake has to be . After all , originalHarry Potterfans are all originate up now , so it could make some sense for the TV remaking to take a far more mature angle .

Making Harry Potter More Mature Would Limit The Show’s Audience
HBO May Not Want To Cut Out The Under-16 Crowd
While a darkHarry Potterremakecertainly has potential , this would be a middling risky move on HBO ’s part . There ’s a reason Fincher ’s rake was denied all those decades ago . Sure , adult audiences may be happy with a mature series that ends the literary criticism against them , but the TV series ' audience would be significantly limited . TheHarry Potterremake will be openhanded intelligence for audiences of all age , anda serial publication that is inclusive for a broad cooking stove of ages will ensure high viewership .

Still , angle fully into the darker aspects ofHarry Pottermight not be the best route for HBO ’s remake . The implied gritty and edginess of the story is part of why it has remained popular with adult audiences , but it ’s not so overt as to keep younger fan out . particularly in theHarry Potterremake ’s first time of year , which will be based onPhilosopher ’s Stone , the lightness of the tale that Columbus mastered in his film must be brought to the screen . Like theHarry Pottermovies , each installment can get a little darker . Sure , adult fans may still be criticise , but if they love what they see , who care ?
