HBO’s Harry Potter TV remake has promised a book faithful adaptation, but a deleted scene from Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone proves why this won’t be an easy task. As beloved as the original Warner Bros films are, they have been heavily criticized for leaving out critical details from J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter books.
However, when looking at some of the scenes that didn’t make it into the movies, it’s clear that the various directors tried to include some book moments. Unfortunately, with the limits of young actors, some just didn’t work.
