The films are based on the seven novels written by J.K. Rowling. The last novel, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, was divided into two parts, which is why there are seven books but eight films.

"We can't wait to share a decade of new stories with fans around the world on Max. We're aiming for a debut in 2026."
