Acting legend John Lithgow is in discussions to take on the role of Professor Albus Dumbledore in HBO’s upcoming “Harry Potter” series. According to reports from Deadline, Lithgow is in the final stages of negotiations for this part, although HBO has not yet confirmed the news. Throughout his career, Lithgow has won six Primetime Emmys and shown great versatility as an actor, making him a strong contender for such a complex role. However, some may find it surprising that an American actor will portray Dumbledore, a character traditionally associated with the United Kingdom. Lithgow’s ability to convincingly adopt a British accent has been demonstrated in his recent performance as Winston Churchill on “The Crown,” so he seems well-equipped for this role if he chooses to commit to the series for its expected duration and endure the inevitable fan scrutiny that comes with it. Fans will likely embrace Lithgow’s portrayal of Dumbledore, given his impressive acting skills.
HBO acknowledges that with a high-profile project like this one, there will be plenty of buzz and conjecture. In response to this report, they’ve stated that they will only reveal facts once deals are finalized during the pre-production phase. At present, no cast members for the Harry Potter reboot have been officially announced, but with a planned release in 2026, it seems that production is indeed moving forward.
