Anyone's kids going for it?? My daughter would have loved to but is 2 months too young 😢 [[https://app.castittalent.com/HPCasting https://app.castittalent.com/HPCasting?utm_source=wwd_web&utm_medium=homepage_tile&utm_campaign=hbo&utm_content=hpseries-castingannounce]]

I can’t imagine even they’ll know how many rounds of auditions there will be. I would expect it to be much more fluid than that. Because a lot of it will depend on the interactions between the 3 main characters right? So no doubt they’ll try a few different combinations til they get it right. Unless they get a really obvious front runner for each early on. I dunno I could be talking rubbish but I don’t think they’ll have a ‘we’ll offer the role after 3/5/10 auditions’ plan. Plus they wouldn’t want to tell people they’re not successful into the next round until they know for sure ie they’re filled every single role as I imagine they’ll be recruiting other classmates too. Or if someone drops out later in the process

Yes I received that email aswell and it did say it could be some time before you hear back but mine was submitted a month ago so I don't know if it's still being considered or have they moved on. I read some where filming starts in April. So I would presume they would have to pick the cast soon enough so they can move on to other roles etc. It's all very hushed so you don't even know what to expect like how many rounds of auditions etc

Just got an email from the agent saying that it has been downloaded and thanks
I sent the ET tape to the wrong email I think 🫢 so I sent it twice to 2 different emails. Funny thing is, I don't even know where I got the first email from but that's the one the agent responded to.

Bumblebee123987 · 11/11/2024 12:12

Has any one heard back since the et scene, be interesting to know if there onto the next round instead of being stuck in limbo if you got to the et and hadn't heard back since but other had you'd have at least some idea

Oldfriends · 10/11/2024 15:05

If you log back into your account and go on history you can see it there as a submission

Thanks @crazyunicornlady73 it’s interesting to hear. Were they HP scenes?

and well done @Drivingoverlemons 💪 great perseverance

Probably a full day’s work in total! 🤔

Do you all get a confirmation email after submission? I used the link without having to pay the $5 and it did look like it went through and is showing in the history however no confirmation email

No they were from ET, I got very confused and thought they were re-making ET as well as HP

Ohhh that’s exciting @afrikat. So am I correct in assuming his audition piece would be longer than the 30 sec / 1 min self tape things but probably what everyone would be asked so do as a next step?

Still a self-tape audition, they sent him some scenes to prepare and film then he did one that was just talking about himself. So the same as the open audition I think??
I didn't actually read the instructions for that as he was too old but I think all self-tape auditions are pretty similar as far as I can tell.

Great, just what the world needs, more Harry Potter!

I know! I can't wait.

Omg it just uploaded. On possibly my 35th attempt.

Drivingoverlemons · 07/11/2024 19:48

I still can’t get mine to upload. I get to submit and it tells me I need a pro account even though I have paid for a $5 submission. It just takes me around in circles.

Partridgewell · 07/11/2024 19:14

Just filmed DS's. It was a little bit on the stressful side. DS looks exactly like how Harry is described in the books but I fear that's not going to make up for his utter lack of preparation! Ah well, it's done now.

I read somewhere else that a recall was sent a script to tape.

KarmenPQZ · 07/11/2024 09:45

Sorry I think that was for @crazyunicornlady73

My ds is 12 so that ruled him out.
He has a spotlight profile and an agent (although has only ever really done "background artist" things)
The production team actually contacted his agent and asked him to film an audition piece after seeing his spotlight profile. So they can't be that strict on the ages 🤷🏽

Eek good luck!

What’s the recall process /timeframe as far as you’ve heard @Oor I’m really curious as to what might happen next.

Or anyone else got any updates?

Show quote history

I don’t know about the time frames or anything. My daughter is in an agency and I follow a few other agencies in insta. Some of them have alluded to kids on their books having recalls (but they can’t say it clearly because of the NDA).
