FILM POSTER FOR HARRY POTTER AND THE PHILOSOPHER’S STONE
2001

Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling’s boy wizard, is one of the most famous characters in English literature. Rowling’s books have been translated into over 70 languages. The highly anticipated film adaptations – eight were made from seven books – brought together a cast of high-profile, established performers to support the three unknown child actors cast as Harry and his Hogwarts classmates, Ron and Hermione.
