It is one of the first questions that many fans of the saga ask themselves before subscribing to this platform:  Does Disney Plus have Harry Potter? In this post we will try to clarify the issue.

The famous series of books JK Rowling It was brought to the big screen between 2001 and 2011, achieving an unusual box office success. The film saga has one more title than the literary series: a film was produced for each of the books, but the last one gave rise to two films (the two parts of 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows') .

In total, eight wonderful films produced by Warner Bros. All thanks to the initiative of the British producer david hayman, in love with this literary saga that did not stop until he took over the film rights to Harry Potter in 1999. Although fans of the little wizard already know it very well, the complete list of this series is as follows:

  • harry potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001)
  • Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)
  • Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004)
  • Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)
  • Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007)
  • Harry Potter y el misterio del príncipe (2009)
  • Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2010)
  • Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (2011)

All of them are million-dollar productions directed by prestigious directors such as Chris Columbus (responsible for the first two deliveries), Alfonso Cuaron, Mike Newell and David Yates, who assumed the direction of the last three, which by the way are the ones that have achieved the greatest critical and box office success.

But back to the question at hand: Does Disney Plus have Harry Potter in its catalog? As we said before, the distribution rights content of the Harry Potter films are currently owned by Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc., a subsidiary of AT&T's WarnerMedia. In order to offer the movies on Disney +, the platform would first have to acquire these rights, which has not happened so far.

While it's true that the Harry Potter movies aren't available on Disney Plus right now, this may be different in a not too distant future. It is rumored that the platform is working to expand the offer of its catalog in the coming years, and that film adaptations of JK Rowling's novels are in its sights.

But until that day arrives, where can you see the Harry Potter movies? What are the best options?

Although the Harry Potter movies are not available on Disney Plus, in recent times we can find them on HBO Max and streaming service NBC Peacock. In reality, both platforms have been taking turns (or rather, fighting each other) to obtain these reproduction rights exclusively. Sometimes, different titles of the saga were added with the warning that they would only be available for a short period of time. One month, for example.

We have also been able to enjoy the adventures of Harry Potter for some time on Netflix y Amazon Prime, but these ceased to be available on January 31, 2021.

The thing is, the Harry Potter movies started streaming on HBO Max again around the same time. And this time, as everything indicates, definitively. This time the films of the saga have come to stay. It makes all the sense in the world for this streaming platform to remain exclusive, since it is owned by Warner Bros.

What's more, the North American production company is considering the possibility of creating a series based on the novels by JK Rowling which would air exclusively on HBO Max. It is only a rumor, although it is an idea that is gaining more and more strength and that would undoubtedly delight the millions of Harry Potter fans around the world.

Meanwhile, if you are one of the many who do not have a subscription to HBO Max but do have Disney Plus, there are other interesting options within this platform to have fun and be entertained. And there are many other fantasy movies that any good Harry Potter fan will surely like. Without going any further, the third installment of the Fantastic Beasts saga, which will premiere on Disney + next April 15 and is titled Fantastic Beasts 3 - Dumbledore's Secrets.
