The Harry Potter series, which is being prepared under the roof of HBO, is slowly starting to take shape. After Dumbledore and Snape, it was also announced who will play the character of Hagrid. –
One of the most remarkable series currently in preparation is HBO’s big-budget Harry Potter series. The series, which will adapt the original series, which was previously adapted to the cinema, is slowly starting to take shape. After the actors who will play the characters of Dumbledore, McGonagall and Severus Snape became clear, it was announced yesterday who will give life to Hagrid.
Nick Frost to Play Hagrid in Harry Potter Series
The character of Hagrid, who was successfully portrayed by Robbie Coltrane in the film series, will be played by Nick Frost this time. According to Deadline, an agreement is about to be signed with Nick Frost.
Nick Frost, known for films such as Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, in which he starred with Simon Pegg, who we can call his wingman, has appeared in productions such as Truth Seekers and Fighting with My Family in recent years.
In the previous news, Brett Goldstein, whom we know from the Ted Lasso series, was mentioned for the role of Hagrid. However, it seems that the producers preferred Nick Frost at the end of the day, which will probably please many people more. Because Frost seems to be a very suitable name to portray this character.
Nick Frost will be accompanied by John Lithgow (Dumbledore), Janet McTeer (Professor McGonagall) and Paapa Essiedu (Severus Snape) in the Harry Potter series. The names who will portray the three child characters at the centre of the story have not yet been announced.
