Summer is here, and you know what that means: It’s time for a Harry Potter movie marathon! Grab some Licorice Wands and Chocolate Frogs and get comfy, because all eight Potter films are back on Peacock for your viewing pleasure. Potterheads will know that the films were previously available to stream on Peacock but left the platform to go live on HBO Max last summer. Now, you get to pick and choose where to watch them, since they’re still available on HBO Max as well. As for how long the films will be on Peacock this time around, we don’t yet know, but we’ll keep you in the loop. Those who want to indulge in a Fantastic Beasts marathon might be disappointed to hear that these films are not currently available on Peacock alongside the Potter films, so HBO Max is still the best platform if you want to join Newt Scamander on his incredible adventures. In the meantime, we’re very happy that the Harry Potter films are now available on two major streaming platforms for the time being. Which platform will you choose for your Harry Potter movie marathon? Let us know in the comments. UPDATE (August 2): It was fun while it lasted, but we now have a date for when the Potter films will be leaving HBO Max. Harry’s adventures are currently still available to watch on both Peacock and HBO Max, but starting August 31, all eight films will be available on Peacock only. Fans in the United Stated looking to enjoy a Wizarding World marathon on September 1 to celebrate Back to Hogwarts will need to do some channel hopping. A rewatch will need to start on Peacock and jump over to HBO Max for the Fantastic Beasts movies, followed by (if you can handle it) the Emmy-nominated Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts special for all the feels.

 HBO Max will no longer be the home of the Harry Potter movies. The eight-film series will leave the platform after it lost the streaming rights for the second time. The films, which are based on J.K. Rowling’s seven-book series, will depart on August 31. When HBO Max launched in May 2020, all eight Harry Potter films were available to stream. However, they left after 90 days for NBCUniversal’s streaming platform, Peacock. The titles then returned to HBO Max in September 2021 under a 12-month-deal, which ends this month. Despite leaving HBO Max, fans of the Wizarding World will still be able to stream the titles. In the US, they’re currently available on Peacock after being added on July 1. HBO Max subscribers will be able to watch the Fantastic Beasts trilogy with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, and Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore all still available. The special 20th anniversary episode 'Return to Hogwarts' also remains on HBO Max. The television special featured interviews with the cast and crew of the movie series as well as unseen behind-the-scenes footage. Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson were among the stars back for the emotional reunion. Currently, there are no new movies or shows planned in the Harry Potter universe. The fate of the fourth Fantastic Beasts film is currently up in the air following the mixed reception of the previous movies at the box office.
