Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Harry Potter enters the 1960s in new art that gives the franchise an early TV feeling. The world of J.K. Rowling's popular novel series first graced movie screens in 2001, with Chris Columbus' Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone introducing audiences to Daniel Radcliffe as Harry, Rupert Grint as Ron, and Emma Watson as Hermione.
In order from left to right, the images show reimagined versions of Harry, Ron, Snape, Hermione, Dumbledore, Draco Malfoy, Hagrid, Dobby, and Voldemort. The art gives the franchise an early TV feel, with era-appropriate costumes and effects. Snape is even wearing eyeliner. VFX were used to bring the sport of quidditch to life, for example, a feat that would have been quite a challenge to pull off entirely practically. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the Basilisk is similarly brought to life largely digitally, as are the Dementors, the werewolf, and the hippogriff in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. As VFX technology advances, each new movie in the franchise becomes more ambitious in terms of its depictions of magic and spell-casting.
