April 12 (UPI) -- HBO Max announced Wednesday it plans to re-adapt the Harry Potter books. The series will run for 10 years on the streaming service.
"Max's commitment to preserving the integrity of my books is important to me," author J.K. Rowling said in a statement. "I'm looking forward to being part of this new adaptation, which will allow for a degree of depth and detail only afforded by a long-form television series."
