HARRY Potter bosses have used a very clever trick to transform actor Nick Frost into Hagrid for the new TV series. Scenes were shot yesterday as London’s Borough High Street was taken over

Filming for the highly anticipated HBO programme, which was first announced back in April 2023, is well and truly under way.

The actors playing Harry Potter and Hagrid in HBO’s new series were spotted filming for the first time in London on Monday. Dominic McLaughlin, 11, got into costume as the beloved titular wizard with a collared sweater, a coat, jeans and a backpack. Of course, the actor also sported Harry’s signature round glasses.
