Fans of the Wizarding World have another reason to revisit Hogwarts this summer. ITV has struck a new agreement with Warner Bros. Discovery that brings every film from the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts franchises to its streaming platform, ITVX, at no extra cost for viewers. The move gives audiences access to all 11 movies in one place, making it easier for longtime fans and newcomers alike to experience the magical saga from beginning to end. Alongside streaming, the films will also return to traditional television through ITV’s broadcast channels.

The latest licensing deal strengthens ITVX’s growing entertainment library at a time when competition among streaming platforms continues to intensify. Rather than limiting access to a handful of titles, ITV has secured the complete collection of Wizarding World films for an undisclosed period. The timing is expected to attract families during the summer holidays, when many viewers are looking for popular movie franchises to binge-watch together. It also reflects the enduring popularity of one of cinema’s biggest fantasy universes.

All 11 Wizarding World Films Available On ITVX

Under the agreement, ITVX now offers all eight Harry Potter films alongside the three Fantastic Beasts movies. Subscribers can stream the complete franchise for free on the platform, while selected titles will also be scheduled across ITV1 and ITV2. By making the collection available across both streaming and television, ITV hopes to reach audiences regardless of how they prefer to watch. The broadcaster has not announced how long the films will remain available.

Commenting on the announcement, ITV’s Head of Content Acquisitions, Darren Nartey, said, “We are extremely proud to make these iconic British films available for both old and new fans to stream, for free, during the summer holidays and beyond.” His statement highlights ITV’s strategy of offering widely recognised franchises to expand the appeal of ITVX. The Wizarding World remains one of the strongest entertainment brands in global cinema, making it a valuable addition to the service.

Harry Potter Franchise Remains A Global Box Office Giant

This year also marks the 25th anniversary of the Harry Potter film franchise, a milestone that further adds to the excitement surrounding the streaming release. Since the first film introduced audiences to Harry, Hermione and Ron, the series has grown into one of the most successful movie franchises ever produced. Across the eight original films and three Fantastic Beasts prequels, the Wizarding World has earned more than $9.6 billion at the global box office. Even years after the final mainline film premiered, the franchise continues to attract new generations of viewers.

The renewed interest also comes as the Wizarding World prepares for its next chapter with an upcoming television adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s beloved novels. While the original films remain hugely popular, the franchise continues expanding through new projects that keep the magical universe alive for audiences worldwide. For now, ITVX viewers can revisit every spell, adventure and memorable Hogwarts moment in one complete collection. The addition is expected to become one of the platform’s biggest attractions throughout the summer and beyond.
