Great news as Warwick Davis is back at Professor Filius Flitwick, becoming the first actor from the film series to reprise the role for the 2027 TV series (after Tom Felton, who reprises his movie role of Draco Malfoy on Broadway in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child). With the shows debut a couple of years away, smartly giving them time to get the first two novels filmed, the production will feature a handful of Star Wars alumni including Davis (too many roles to count), John Lithgow as Professor Albus Dumbledore (Yoda in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi Radio Drama) Nick Frost as Rubius Hagrid (SM-33 in Skeleton Crew) and Anton Lesser (Lio Partagaz in Andor) as Garrick Ollivander.
HBO’s “Harry Potter” TV series is filling out Hogwarts’ staff and students.
“Harry Potter” alum Warwick Davis, who played Charms Professor Filius Flitwick across all eight original films, is reprising the role for the HBO series. While Davis was double-billed in the Potter films as both Flitwick and Griphook, he’ll only play the former this time around. The goblin banker will instead be played by Leigh Gill.
