John Lithgow Reveals He'll Play Dumbledore in HBO's Harry Potter TV Series

Author : Nathan Update：Feb 27,2025

HBO's highly anticipated Harry Potter TV series has reportedly secured its Dumbledore: the acclaimed John Lithgow. While HBO and Warner Bros. haven't officially confirmed the casting, Lithgow himself revealed his acceptance of the role in a ScreenRant interview. He described the decision as challenging, stating it would define the "last chapter" of his career, noting he'll be nearing 87 by the time filming wraps.

This marks the first confirmed casting for the series, which aims to reimagine J.K. Rowling's beloved books with a completely new ensemble cast. Rowling will serve as an executive producer alongside Neil Blair and Ruth Kenley-Letts.

The lack of a full cast suggests the show is still in the early stages of development, some time away from production. Lithgow, a veteran actor known for roles like Dick Solomon in "3rd Rock from the Sun" and his Emmy-winning portrayal of Winston Churchill in "The Crown," brings considerable experience and prestige to the project.
