Fantasy fans have been eagerly waiting for this at the start of December: the entire “Harry Potter” series is available for streaming again on Amazon Prime Video – and the three “Fantastic Beasts” spin-offs are on top of that.
Get out your self-crocheted Christmas sweaters and gather in front of the TV at home with a cup of piping hot Butterbeer – because the entire “Harry Potter” series with all eight films is back with a subscription Amazon Prime Video. This literally calls for a well-kept fantasy marathon that will send you off into the pre-Christmas season with lots of magical moments from Hogwarts and a healthy dose of nostalgia.
For example, if you start this weekend with the first two parts “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” and “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” and watch two more films in the successful series every weekend, Are you up to Christmas Eve with the adventures of your family? Daniel Radcliffe embodied favorite sorcerer’s apprentice.
And if you still don’t have enough, there are still plans for the Christmas holidays all three parts of the “Fantastic beasts” spin-offs are available on Amazon Prime Video (Part 3 has been available there for a long time, parts 1 and 2 are new to the streaming subscription). Could there be a bigger Christmas present for Potterheads? Well, maybe just with new announcements from the Wizarding World…
The Wizarding World of “Harry Potter” never ends
After the original “Harry Potter” series concluded with “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2” in 2011, there are currently no further films planned in the age of the famous sorcerer’s apprentice. Instead, the novels by J.K. Rowling will be re-adapted into a series for the US streaming service Max, with each book having its own season. Over the course of ten years, seven fresh seasons of “Harry Potter” await us from 2025, in which young faces will follow in the footsteps of Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson.
The “Fantastic Beasts” series is set as a prequel to the original “Potter” series and was originally intended to consist of five films. After the rather moderate success of the last part “Fantastic Beasts 3: Dumbledore’s Secrets” about the magizoologist Newt Scamader (Eddie Redmayne) and wizarding legend Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law) in his prime, other parts of the “Animals” series are currently on hold. While director David Yates assured that the magic wands will probably be waved here again one day, the filmmaker, like the Wizarding World, has other priorities at this point.

The Wizarding World is one of the ten largest media empires in the world with sales of over 32 billion US dollars, what the “Potter” and “Beasts” films say Statesman but “only” amounts to $9.58 billion. Additional income comes from, among other things, merchandising products, the “Cursed Child” play, international exhibitions and video games – including the much-discussed “Hogwarts Legacy,” which was released this year. In terms of film alone, the “Harry Potter” universe is the third most successful franchise of all time, after the MCU and “Star Wars”. In the fantasy genre, the magical world of Harry and Co. is still unbeaten to this day.
