HBO has revealed more of the young cast for its upcoming Harry Potter TV series, set to debut in 2027.

From Gryffindor, the new actors include Eire Farrell as Katie Bell, Asha Soetan as Angelina Johnson, Orson Matthews as Oliver Wood, Serrana Su-Ling Bliss as Alicia Spinnet, and Ethan Smith as Lee Jordan.
