Soon you’ll be able to stream all eight Harry Potter movies, plus Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, commercial free.
Update: HBO tells Hypable that the movies will be available for six months.
HBO has announced that all nine Wizarding World movies will be airing and streaming on their network beginning January 1, 2018. This is the first time that the complete franchise is airing commercial-free, and available for streaming, from one cabler.
