Harry Potter Reboot Doomed If Fans Can’t Get Past One Thing

The story of Harry Potter creatively belongs completely to J.K. Rowling, so the author has a lot of say in any specific exploitation of her work.

Officially, the agreement reached between Rowling and Warner Bros. Entertainment places Rowling, Neil Blair, and Ruth Kenley-Letts as executive producers. 

The Harry Potter series will be produced with Warner Bros. Television and J.K. Rowling’s company, Brontë Film and TV. The latter was founded in a joint effort between Rowling and Neil Blair, her literary agent, back in 2012. 

The company has recently seen a serious decline (74 percent) in production profits over the last year, making the job of producing the new Harry Potter series a huge deal for the business.
