Good news: there’s a new Harry Potter movie and TV series in the works! Bad news: it is in no way the Harry Potter that you’re thinking of.
In 1986, director John Carl Buechler released Troll, a low budget urban fantasy that’s since gone on to become something of a cult hit. The movie centred on a young boy’s quest to save his sister after she becomes possessed by a troll (who is also an ancient wizard, obviously). The boy’s name? Harry Potter, Jr.
It’s this character that will be at the centre of the upcoming Troll: The Rise of Harry Potter, Jr., a 3D animated movie that revives the 80s film. It will be produced by SC Films International, with a TV series preceding the cinematic outing.
