Warner Brothers Entertainment, Inc. J.K. Rowling and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. own the trademark J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World. Warner Bros. Entertainment provided materials from the Harry Potter film series and the film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. The original book series is published by Bloomsbury.
In 2004, Pottermore was launched as a website featuring articles written by J.K. Rowling about her creation of the Harry Potter books. In 2010, Warner Bros. announced the release of a new film series called Harry Potter And The Cursed Child which will be based on an upcoming novel by J.K. Rowling. The book will be published on July 16th 2016 by Little, Brown and Company.
In 2017, J.K. Rowling announced that she was retiring as an author but would continue as an "ambassador" for the Harry Potter franchise. She described herself as a "writer who happens to be famous", stating that she could not imagine living any other way than being able to create stories for a living.
She also stated that she does not plan to write any more novels but will continue to contribute to the future of the franchise through interviews, speeches and other forms of media.
Finally, she confirmed that Daniel Radcliffe would not be reprising his role as Harry Potter in any way beyond this latest movie.
J.K. Rowling Is Bringing Out Four New Harry Potter Novels. They also sound really wonderful. Pottermore Publishing, run by J.K. Rowling, is producing four new Harry Potter novels. The nonfiction eBook shorts will delve into the folklore and magic at the core of the Harry Potter novels. The first of these publications came out in November of 2013.
The series will continue with two more eBooks released each year starting in 2014.
Rowling has said that she writes the books in three months because it's such a big project to take on and she doesn't want to let her fans down. She has also mentioned that they are written in sequence so you don't have to read them in order but can just as easily start with the second or third book depending on what interests you most.
I think it's great that Rowling is willing to put so much effort into these books since a lot of people don't know this fact about her!
She isn't just writing some trashy romance like many other authors might do with their series characters. These books are based on folklore and ancient magic practices which makes them feel very different than anything else out there.
I'm definitely looking forward to reading them!
The Unofficial Ultimate Harry Potter Spellbook is a lovely, elegantly designed reference that lists all of the known spells cast in the Harry Potter films, novels, video games, and card games, as well as official Harry Potter spinoffs like Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. It's also a great resource for fans to share their own magic techniques.
This isn't an official product of Warner Bros., J.K. Rowling, or anyone else involved with the Harry Potter series. However, it does come highly recommended by readers who have used or want to use it as a guide to learn more about the many magical things that happen in the Harry Potter world.
"18" Rowling owns the U.S. copyright to all seven Harry Potter books. 9.
