The doc featured interviews from members of various departments — casting, production design, costume design, and creature effects teams — along with directors, actors, and other department heads. While all major details are kept tightly under wraps, eagle-eyed fans have managed to find several Easter eggs like Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Beans and Chocolate Frogs, Butterbeer bottles, while unseen creatures in movies like Flubberworms, Fire Crabs, and Dugbog, too, made an appearance. The half-hour special teased the grand sets that were constructed, along with iconic locations like the Great Hall, Diagon Alley, and its several enticing shops, the Leaky Cauldron pub, as well as the huge facade of the Gringotts bank. What makes the doc special is the fact that it shows many elements that were missing from the original movies.
Collider Exclusive · Sci-Fi Survival Quiz Which Sci-Fi World Would You Survive? The Matrix · Mad Max · Blade Runner · Dune · Star Wars
Five universes. Five completely different ways the future went wrong — or sideways, or up in flames. Only one of them is the world your instincts were built for. Eight questions will figure out which dystopia, galaxy, or desert wasteland you’d actually make it out of alive.
💊The Matrix
🔥Mad Max
🌧️Blade Runner
🏜️Dune
🚀Star Wars
01
You sense something is deeply wrong with the world around you. What do you do? The first instinct is often the truest one.
02
In a world of scarcity, what resource do you guard most fiercely? What we protect reveals what we believe survival actually requires.
03
What kind of threat keeps you up at night? Fear is useful data — if you’re honest about what you’re actually afraid of.
04
How do you deal with authority you don’t trust? Every dystopia has a power structure. Your approach to it determines everything.
05
Which environment could you actually endure long-term? Survival isn’t just tactical — it’s physical, psychological, and very much about where you are.
06
Who do you want in your corner when things fall apart? The company you keep is the clearest signal of who you actually are.
07
Where do you draw the line — if you draw one at all? Every survivor eventually faces a moment that tests what they’re actually made of.
08
What would actually make survival worth it? Staying alive is one thing. Having a reason to is another.
Your Fate Has Been Calculated You’d Survive In…
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.
The Resistance, Zion
The Matrix
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.
You’re drawn to understanding how the system works before figuring out how to break it.
You’d find the Resistance, or it would find you — your instinct for spotting constructed realities is the machines’ worst nightmare.
You function best when you have access to information and the freedom to act on it.
The Matrix built an airtight prison. You’d be the one probing the walls for the door.
The Wasteland
Mad Max
The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.
You don’t need comfort, community, or a cause larger than the next horizon.
You need a vehicle, a clear threat, and enough fuel to outrun it — and you’re good at all three.
You are unsentimental enough to survive that world, and decent enough — just barely — to be something more than another raider.
In the wasteland, that distinction is everything.
Los Angeles, 2049
Blade Runner
You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
You read people accurately, keep your circle small, and ask the questions others prefer not to answer.
In a city where humanity is a legal designation rather than a feeling, you hold onto something that keeps you functional.
You’re not a hero. But you’re not lost, either.
In Blade Runner’s world, that distinction is everything.
Arrakis
Dune
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
Patience, discipline, and political awareness are your core strengths — and on Arrakis, they’re survival tools.
You understand that the long game matters more than any single victory.
Others come to Dune and are consumed by it. You’d learn its logic and earn its respect.
In time, you wouldn’t just survive Arrakis — you’d begin to reshape it.
A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
You find meaning in being part of something larger than yourself — a cause, a crew, a rebellion.
You’d gravitate toward the Rebellion, or the fringes, or whatever pocket of the galaxy still believes the Empire’s grip can be broken.
You fight — not because you have to, but because standing aside isn’t something you’re capable of.
In Star Wars, that willingness is what makes all the difference.
Peeves Will Appear in the ‘Harry Potter’ Reboot Series
Among those elements is the missing character of Peeves, the fan favorite poltergeist. While some fans felt they saw Peeves’ concept art during the doc, it has now made its way online, revealing the first proper look at the character. In the books, Peeves isn’t a transparent ghost, but has a solid-looking form who appears in outlandish clothes, as seen in the concept art. Peeves is one of the important characters when it comes to creating a nuisance across the castle, often disturbing professors and students alike. However, in the latter books, he shows the utmost loyalty to Hogwarts when he makes Umbridge’s life a living hell, and also fights in the final battle.
The show is being helmed by writer Francesca Gardiner and director Mark Mylod, and arrives 15 years after the final installment of the iconic film series. Dominic McLaughlin, Alastair Stout, and Arabella Stanton are set to play the golden trio. The staff room is populated by John Lithgowas Dumbledore, Janet McTeer as Professor McGonagall, Paapa Essiedu as Severus Snape, and Nick Frost as Hagrid. Also starring are Johnny Flynn as Lucius Malfoy, Paul Whitehouse as Filch, Katherine Parkinson as Mrs. Weasley, among many more.
Finding Harry is streaming on HBO Max, the reboot series debuts on December 25. Stay tuned to Collider for more such updates.
