The magical world of Harry Potter is taking shape once again as HBO prepares its new TV adaptation. The upcoming series will revisit the story with a new cast and a fresh production design. Among the familiar elements returning to the franchise are the wands, which play an important role in the characters’ journeys.

HBO has now offered a closer look at the wands through a new Instagram post. The post features the wands of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Draco Malfoy, and Neville Longbottom. The post begins with “The wand chooses the wizard” and provides information about each wand’s wood, core, length, and history.

The new wands showcase the magic behind HBO’s Harry Potter

Harry Potter’s wand features holly wood and a phoenix feather core. It measures 28 cm. Harry’s wand and Voldemort’s wand share a core from the same phoenix. Ollivander describes them as “brother wands,” giving the two wands an important connection.

Meanwhile, Ron Weasley uses an ash wand with a unicorn hair core. It measures 31 cm, which his older brother Charlie handed down to him. This also gives Ron’s wand a direct connection to his family.

Draco Malfoy carries a hawthorn wand with a unicorn hair core. At 25 cm, it is shorter than the wands revealed for Harry, Ron, and Hermione. According to the lore, hawthorn suits wizards with a conflicted nature, making the material a fitting choice for Draco’s wand.

Hermione Granger wields a wand made from vine wood with a dragon heartstring core. It measures 27 cm. The lore also notes that vine is a rare wand material that favors people who seek a greater purpose. Meanwhile, Neville Longbottom’s wand has fewer details available. The Instagram post does not reveal its wood, core, or length. However, it confirms that Neville inherited his wand from his father.

The new images provide another look at the level of detail going into HBO’s Harry Potter. Alongside their visual designs, the wands carry histories and lore that connect them to the characters who use them.

Harry Potter Season 1 will premiere on December 25, 2026, on HBO.
