The reunion that Harry Potter fans have been waiting for has arrived. Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Helena Bonham Carter and more stars from the magical movies reunite in Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts, which is available to stream Jan. 1, 2022, exclusively on HBO Max.

The 100-minute special follows the 20th anniversary of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, the first movie in the whimsical franchise based on J.K. Rowling’s young adult fantasy book series. The retrospective highlights the most memorable scenes from the movies and weaves in interviews with the filmmakers and actors and behind-the-scenes footage.

How to Watch Return to Hogwarts Online

The only way to watch the Harry Potter reunion online is on HBO Max, which requires a monthly subscription. Plans start at $10 per month with ads or $15 per month for the ad-free package; you can also save money when you sign up for annual plans ($100 to $150 with or without ads, respectively).

HBO Max subscribers get access to The Matrix Resurrections, the Sex and the City sequel series And Just Like That, Friends and many other TV shows and movies in HD. The ad-free plan also lets you download content to watch offline, watch Warner Bros. films on the same day as the theatrical release and see select films in 4K HD quality.

Here’s Where to Stream All the ‘Harry Potter’ Movies Online

Need to catch up on the wizarding world before watching the latest 'Fantastic Beasts' film? All eight of the 'Harry Potter' movies are now available to stream on Peacock and HBO Max

Grab your wands and Hogwarts robes, because after disappearing (and reappearing) a few times on different streaming services, including HBO Max, the series has finally landed in one place: all eight Harry Potter films are now streaming back on Peacock.

The latest installment of the Fantastic Beasts prequel series, Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore hit theaters April 15, and might signal an end of an era for the wizarding world on film. While the rest of the series was previously only streaming on Peacock, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, and the adventures of Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), Hermione (Emma Watson), and Ron (Rupert Grint) will finally be all in one place on Peacock and HBO Max.

It’s possible that the streamer could be making way for a potential live-action TV series, which is still in early talks from WarnerMedia. If you’re just looking to reminisce, the retrospective special, Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts, just premiered on HBO Max, which reunites Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson, along with director Chris Columbus, for a look back at memorable moments from the films, behind-the-scenes footage, and new cast interviews.

But if you can’t wait to go on a nostalgic trip through the magical world of Harry Potter, here’s how to stream the entire film series online before you watch the reunion special.
