The universe created by J.K. Rowling has been the talk of the town in recent years, whether with the release of the excellent game Hogwarts Legacy, or the announcement of the reboot series of the Harry Potter saga. Warner is back today with a new project that seems to be a top priority for its CEO.
A new magical project within the Wizarding World
Although the success of the literary saga Harry Potter was immediate with more than 68,000 copies sold for the first volume and this just on its first weekend of publication, it was with the arrival in the cinema in December 2001 of Harry Potter at the school of wizards, that the universe of the young wizard has become a global phenomenon to the point of forever marking an entire generation of readers and fans of dark rooms. Since the end of the publication of the novels and the last film of the saga, as with many successful franchises other works have come to enrich this universe, with of course the play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, but also the Fantastic Beasts trilogy, at the beginning of last year the superb video game Hogwarts Legacy and in April of the same year, a new adaptation was announced, this time in series of the Harry Potter saga for HBO.
While some are wondering what new projects around this magical universe are in the works, there is one that is particularly close to the heart of the CFO of Warner Bros. Discovery, it is the sequel to Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy. Indeed, it was during an annual media conference organized by the Bank of America last Wednesday that our colleagues from Variety were able to question Gunnar Wiedenfels on the subject and the latter could not have been clearer:
Of course, a sequel to Hogwarts Legacy is one of our biggest priorities in the years to come.It is clear that investment in this sector will play a crucial role in our company's growth strategy.
So yes, Hogwarts Legacy: The Legacy of Hogwarts is going to get a sequel worthy of the name and maybe even sooner than we thought, given Gunnar Wiedenfels' statements.
