Harry Potter has grown up in the cupboard under the stairs at his aunt and uncle's house, told his parents died in a car crash. Days before his eleventh birthday, the truth arrives by letter: Harry is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Sorted into Gryffindor alongside new friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, Harry learns charms, potions, and Quidditch while adjusting to a world that knows his name before he knows himself. But something dangerous is stirring inside the castle -- a threat connected to the night his parents died and he alone survived. HBO's first season adapts J.K. Rowling's debut novel across eight episodes, with Francesca Gardiner as showrunner and Mark Mylod directing.
