The Burrow Grows Fuller: Meet the New Weasley Siblings in HBO’s Harry Potter Series🧙
In our previous blog post, we introduced the trio who will bring Harry, Ron, and Hermione to life in HBO’s ambitious new Harry Potter series. Now, the Weasley family is expanding: HBO has officially revealed who will play Ron’s siblings, giving fans their first look at the growing magical clan.
The Weasley Children Revealed
HBO confirmed the casting with a playful family selfie on Instagram captioned: “The Burrow is nearly full.” The announcement introduced four key Weasley siblings:
-
Tristan Harland as Fred Weasley
-
Gabriel Harland as George Weasley
-
Ruari Spooner as Percy Weasley
-
Gracie Cochrane as Ginny Weasley
They join Alastair Stout (already announced as Ron Weasley), making the Weasley children a nearly complete set.
Who’s Missing From the Family?
So far, Bill, Charlie, and Arthur Weasley have not been revealed. Interestingly, HBO teased that “Charlie is in Romania,” a nod to his dragon-taming storyline in the books. Fans are eagerly waiting to see who will step into these remaining roles and complete the iconic Burrow family.
