Harry Potter, the HBO Max series, has made a lot of noise so far, but it has not yet premiered. That hasn’t stopped them from already giving the green light and confirming that it will have a second season that will begin filming this fall, adapting one of the most beloved books by fans: The Chamber of Secrets.
The season by book
Here we will follow Harry during his second year at Hogwarts, where he will have two important events in his life. The first is the discovery that the heir of Salazar Slytherin has opened the Chamber of Secrets, unleashing a horrible creature in the school corridors that will endanger the students. The second is meeting Dobby, a house-elf with whom he will start a friendship and who will warn him about the dangers that await him at Hogwarts.
After learning that the second season will adapt Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, following the first season adapting Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, it is confirmed that each season will adapt a new book from the franchise. This means there should be at least seven seasons of the series, unless it is canceled for any reason.
The first season of Harry Potter is set to premiere on HBO and HBO Max on December 25th. The second season does not have a release date yet, but it is expected to be at least a year after the premiere of the first season. Especially since everything indicates that HBO is convinced this is their new golden goose and they do not want to let it slip away.
