HBO Max has released the much-anticipated trailer of Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts, its upcoming special that will reunite the actors and filmmakers from the eight-movie franchise. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, which kicked off the film franchise of the Wizarding World, was released in November 2001, and the special will commemorate the franchise’s 20th anniversary.

The trailer features the cast reminiscing about the movies, as well as festivities in the Great Hall. Watson says, “It feels like no time has passed — and loads of time has passed.” Radcliffe says that something that had scared him was “the implication that the most meaningful thing in our life was done,” and that seeing everyone is “joyous” because he realizes “it wasn’t though.”

Helena Bonham Carter says a highlight for her was during Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, when she “had to pretend to be Hermione pretending to be Belletrix” as they break into Gringotts. In conversation with Radcliffe, she says, “I’ve still got the teeth,” and puts them in her mouth as he laughs.

Ralph Fiennes says his sister, who had Harry Potter-aged children during the time when he was weighing whether to play Voldemort, told him, “You’ve got to do it!”

“When things get really dark, and times are really hard, there’s something about Harry Potter that makes life richer,” Watson says, as the key trio of friends talk in the Gryffindor common room. “It’s a strong bond that we’ll always have,” Rupert Grint agrees as they embrace each other.

Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts, which will reunite actors Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson, was taped at the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London. It will feature talent from the movies, including Helena Bonham Carter, Robbie Coltrane, Ralph Fiennes, Jason Isaacs, Gary Oldman, Tom Felton, James Phelps, Oliver Phelps, Mark Williams, Bonnie Wright, Alfred Enoch, Matthew Lewis and Evanna Lynch. Filmmakers David Heyman, Chris Columbus, Alfonso Cuarón, Mike Newell and David Yates will also make appearances. J.K. Rowling, the author of the beloved book series, was not interviewed for Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts, because of her anti-trans comments, and will be shown in only archival footage about the movies.

Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts is produced by Warner Bros. Unscripted Television, in association with Warner Horizon at the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London — The Making of Harry Potter. Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwartswill stream on January 1.
