Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, who played the franchise's main trio of Harry, Ron, and Hermione, and director Chris Columbus are set to discuss the franchise for the first time – Radcliffe, Grint, and Watson starred in all eight Harry Potter movies, while Columbus directed the first two and was a producer on the third.

The special, titled Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts, will arrive on the streamer on January 1, 2022. According to HBO Max, it will "tell an enchanting making-of story through all-new, in-depth interviews and cast conversations".
