Harry Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint reunite for TV special — but JK Rowling noticeably absent - ABC News

Harry Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint are reuniting with other cast members from the blockbuster film franchise for a special 20th anniversary TV retrospective — but author JK Rowling won't be joining them.

Robbie Coltrane, who played Hagrid, Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy), Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange), Gary Oldman (Sirius Black), director Chris Columbus and other stars of the eight movies will join them for Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts on the movie set in London where the first film was made.

The special will be broadcast on January 1 on streaming platform HBO Max.

The retrospective will see the cast return to the original Hogwarts boarding school sets that were featured in the first film, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, which was released in November 2001.

The film franchise based on Rowling's stories about an orphaned boy with magical powers took in some $US10.6 billion ($7.8 billion) at the global box office.

The author has faced increased scrutiny in recent years for her views on sex, gender and trans issues, which some have labelled transphobic.

The special is one of several 20th anniversary events planned by Warner Bros. Another is a TV quiz contest for Potter fans hosted by Dame Helen Mirren and including cameo appearances by some of the cast and celebrity fans, including comedians Pete Davidson and Jay Leno.
