Warner Bros. Discovery CEO wants new Harry Potter story starring JK Rowling
As Variety reports, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav offered specific wishes for the third-quarter earnings call Expansion of the most successful Warner brands.
[…] We haven’t had a Superman movie in 13 years. We haven’t made a Harry Potter film in 15 years. The DC films and the Harry Potter films have provided much of Warner Bros. Motion Pictures’ profits for the past 25 years. […][…] Batman, Superman, Aquaman, if we can do something with JK on Harry Potter in the future, Lord of the Rings, what do we do with Game of Thrones then? What do we do with a lot of the big franchises that we have? We focus on franchises. […]
Recently it was announced that Guardians of the Galaxy and The Suicide Squad director James Gunn has been hired to direct the future of DC movies. Active plans for new Harry Potter films doesn’t currently exist, according to Variety sources.
It is noticeable that Zaslav not a word about the Fantastic Beasts series loses. After the last, financially disappointing part, the Harry Potter spin-off is probably as good as finished. On the other hand, more Harry Potter films are more likely than ever if JK Rowling can be inspired for new projects.
