The Weasleys are heading to Hogwarts in newly released photos and videos from the set of HBO‘s Harry Potter reboot.
What do the new Harry Potter set videos show?
The new images and video from the Harry Potter set have revealed that the production is now shooting the scenes set at London King’s Cross Station. Fans of J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World will know that London King’s Cross is home to the fictional Platform 9 and 3⁄4, which is where Harry, Ron, and the rest of the Hogwarts students await the train that will take them to the iconic school of witchcraft and wizardry.
In the first book, Harry has trouble locating Platform 9 and 3⁄4, leading him to seek out the help of the Weasleys, particularly matriarch Molly, who shows the young wizard how to access the hidden platform. The scene is notable for featuring the first appearances of most of the Weasley family.
Alastair Stout, Katherine Parkinson, Tristan Harland, Gabriel Harland, and Gracie Cochrane have all been snapped on the London King’s Cross set in costume as their respective characters Ron, Molly, Fred, George, and Ginny Weasley. No photos of Dominic McLaughlin as Harry Potter have been spotted yet, although it’s only a matter of time before he joins his co-stars on set.

The new set photos and videos come as former Harry Potter director Chris Columbus confirms that he will have no involvement in the reboot series. “No, I’ve done it, you saw my version. There’s nothing left for me to do in the world of Potter,” said Columbus, who directed the first two Harry Potter movies.
Francesca Gardiner is serving as head writer and showrunner on Harry Potter, while Mark Mylod is attached as its main director. The first season is slated to premiere on HBO in 2027.
