HBO has shared a sneak peek at Nick Frost portraying Rubeus Hagrid, and fans are expressing their delight. The actor sported Hagrid’s distinctive robe, long beard, and hair, leading viewers to notice similarities with Robbie Coltrane, who played the role across all Harry Potter films.
The day following HBO’s post of Dominic McLaughlin in Harry Potter costume, Frost’s image was shared online.
Everything we know about Harry Potter TV series
It’s said that filming for the Harry Potter TV adaptation has begun at Warner Bros. Studios. This upcoming series is inspired by J.K. Rowling’s beloved novels, with each book getting its own season to bring the magical world to life.
Initially, Hagrid is among the initial characters introduced in the Philosopher’s Stone, as he rescues Harry from his aunt’s house and leads him to Hogwarts.
Amongst the enchanting cast of characters in the wizarding realm, there’s no denying that I, as a devoted fan, hold Hagrid particularly dear. His endearing personality, unwavering loyalty towards Dumbledore, and heartwarming friendship with Harry resonate deeply with me and countless others.
In the upcoming HBO series, Frost will be joined by actors such as John Lithgow, Janet McTeer, Johnny Flynn, Rory Wilmot, Amos Kitson, Louise Brealey, and Katherine Parkinson, along with several others.
In this production, Alastair Stout will play the role of Harry Potter, while Ron will be portrayed by McLaughlin, and Hermione will be brought to life by Arabella Stanton.

Immediately following the unveiling of Nick Frost’s portrayal as Hagrid on HBO, I found myself swept up in a whirlwind of enthusiasm on the web. On my X account, I couldn’t help but express my agreement with the sentiment: “He truly embodies the character.
A fan shared that casting spells isn’t merely about appearance; it’s about encapsulating spirit. With Nick Frost playing Hagrid, we can expect a fresh installment brimming with emotion and laughter.
A third netizen shared, “He looks great… im hyped for this show.”
