Summary
Lenny Rush, Billy Barratt and Bonnie Hill have joined HBO's Harry Potter Season 2 as Dobby, Tom Riddle and Ginny Weasley, filling three central Chamber of Secrets roles.
Season 2 is already in production, but HBO has said the series will not air annually, making episodes shot this year unlikely to arrive before 2028.
Hill takes over as Ginny after the previous actress exited future episodes following Season 1, while Kit Harington was recently confirmed as Gilderoy Lockhart after Nicholas Hoult dropped out.
Season 1 begins this Christmas and runs into early 2027, with Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton, Alastair Stout, John Lithgow, Paapa Essiedu and Nick Frost among returning cast members.
