“Casting for the show is on point.” Harry Potter fans can't get over how well these characters were cast in the HBO Max TV series

As work began on the set of the Harry Potter TV series, the first official photographs of the actors in costume began to be released, so we could already see what Harry and Hagrid will look like in the HBO Max production.

But that's not the only thing that's been causing a lot of excitement among HP fans lately, because along with the showing of Dominic McLaughlin in costume, more new cast members were also revealed. This time it was announced who will play Dudley Dursley, and it will be Amos Kitson. Fans of the young wizard's adventures immediately agreed that Kitson “definitely looks like Dudley.” In addition, in their opinion, he is a perfect fit for the son of the Dursleys from TV show, who will be played by Bel Powley and Daniel Rigby.

According to fans of the series with the casting of the Dursleys, the creators of the Harry Potter TV series were “on point,” because not only will they come off convincingly as a family, but most importantly they match how the books described the characters – it was especially appreciated that, unlike in the movies, this time an effort was made to pick actors in the right age.

So the Dursleys have been met with a positive reception, and the concerns that have also been raised about whether the actors look too good for these characters will perhaps be allayed when we see them in costume. These so far haven’t disappointed fans, who are pleased with how Harry and Hagrid look in the TV series.
