HBO's Harry Potter Reboot Pays Young Leads $660K Each for Season 1 - briefly|
| (hx) 07:55 PM CEST - Mar,31 2026 | The child actors cast as Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger in HBO's upcoming TV series reboot will each earn approximately $660,000 for the first season. This breaks down to roughly $79,000 per episode across the planned eight episodes. The substantial pay reflects HBO's major investment in the multi-season project, which aims to adapt J.K. Rowling's books more faithfully than the original films. Compared to the original child stars who earned far less for the first movie, the new cast benefits from today's higher industry standards for young talent in high-profile franchises. Fan reactions remain divided, with some congratulating the payday while others predict challenges for the reboot amid ongoing debates over casting and adaptation choices.
The original film trio earned significantly different upfront pay for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) compared to the reported HBO reboot figures. Daniel Radcliffe (Harry) received about $1 million (roughly £1 million at the time) for the first movie as the lead with some prior acting experience.
Emma Watson (Hermione) and Rupert Grint (Ron), relative newcomers, earned substantially less—often reported as under $1 million combined or individually far below Radcliffe's amount for the debut film, with salaries escalating sharply in later installments as the franchise exploded in popularity.
