Harry Potter has won millions of hearts all over the world and still continues to do that to this day. Like they say a great art piece doesn’t ever get old. Harry Potter started off as a book by J.K. Rowling in 1997 and soon after its publication became the best seller.
Recognizing the immense potential in the story, movie makers became interested, and eventually, in 2001, the first Harry Potter movie was released.

The role played by the actors in the films was nothing less than remarkable. They built a connection with the audience that would without a doubt be hard to forget.
