距離第一部《哈利·波特》電影上映已經過去二十多年，但只要一提起它，還是會讓人瞬間覺得——DNA又動了。

近日，HBO劇版《哈利·波特》首支先導預告片正式亮相，有細心的網友從中捕捉到兩個值得注意的細節(jié)。

A new Harry. A new Hermione, Ron, Dumbledore and Snape. And a whole new Hogwarts are revealed in the first teaser trailer for HBO's Harry Potter TV series.

一是定檔時間。預告片末尾赫然打出了“2026年圣誕節(jié)”的字樣，比此前坊間盛傳的2027年提前了一大截。

二是劇集名字。首季官方定名為《哈利·波特與魔法石》，而非外界此前猜測的簡單以“哈利·波特”命名。

The trailer introduces all the season's main characters and shows several iconic moments.

One big surprise: The trailer reveals a premiere date of Christmas 2026 — which is earlier than the 2027 date that's been previously announced. Another surprise: The season's official title is Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone — not simply Harry Potter as has been widely assumed.

演員陣容方面，三位小主角均由新面孔擔綱——多米尼克·麥克勞克林飾演哈利·波特，阿拉貝拉·斯坦頓飾演赫敏·格蘭杰，阿拉斯泰爾·斯托特飾演羅恩·韋斯萊。

成年陣容中，約翰·利思戈出演鄧布利多，珍妮·麥克蒂爾飾演麥格教授，尼克·弗羅斯特飾演海格。而斯內普一角，則因帕帕·厄希度的出演備受爭議。

The show introduces a young Harry (Dominic McLaughlin) and his friends Hermione Granger (Arabella Stanton) and Ron Weasley (Alastair Stout) as they attend their first year at Hogwarts. Among the adult cast, there's John Lithgow as Headmaster Albus Dumbledore, Janet McTeer as Professor Minerva McGonagall, Nick Frost as the half-giant Hagrid and Paapa Essiedu as the Potions Professor Severus Snape.

帕帕·厄希度飾斯內普教授

厄希度是一名黑人演員，而原著中的斯內普被描述為“面色蒼白”，此前的銀幕形象也由已故的艾倫·瑞克曼塑造得深入人心。自選角公布以來，這位演員便收到了大量負面評論，甚至包括死亡威脅。

他最近向媒體坦言：“有人對我說，‘退出，否則我殺了你?！彼硎?，這些聲音反而成了他表演的“燃料”，并強調《哈利·波特》的核心主題正是“愛戰(zhàn)勝仇恨，是包容”。

One element that's recently sparked headlines is Essiedu's casting as Snape. Having a Black actor in the role described in the books as a pale white man (and previously played by Alan Rickman) has caused an uproar in some segments of the fandom. The actor has recently revealed he's received death threats over the role and that he's used such backlash to "fuel" his performance.

"I've been told, 'Quit or I'll murder you,'" Essiedu told The Times. "The themes that run through Harry Potter are of love triumphing over hate — of acceptance. And that's why I'm doing it."

HBO方面對此回應稱，已為劇組配備了“嚴密的安全團隊”。

HBO boss Casey Bloys has responded by telling reporters the show has a "serious security team" in place.

值得一提的是，原版哈利·波特的扮演者丹尼爾·雷德克里夫倒是率先送上了祝福。他近日公開表示，相信新主演多米尼克·麥克勞克林會比自己當年演得更好?！拔沂窃谂臄z中邊學邊做的，”雷德克里夫說，“現在回頭看，我對自己當年的表現更寬容了。”

Recently, original Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe made headlines for saying he suspected McLaughlin would be far better in the iconic lead role than he was. "I'm sure Dominic is going to be better than me," Radcliffe said. "I learned as I went. I look back on what I did now with a lot more kindness, and I find it less embarrassing now that I'm older. But I was very much learning how to do it for a long time on Potter."
