Harry Potter TV Series: Arabella Stanton's Leaked Audition Tape Reveals Why She's The Perfect Pick For Hermione Among 30,000 Who Auditioned

Fan-favourite Harry Potter is getting a TV series adaptation at HBO. The upcoming series is based on novels by JK Rowling, and is described as a "more in-depth" adaptation of the wizarding world as shown in the books as compared to the eight-part film franchise. Each book is said to have its own season and recently, the show's lead stars Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton and Alastair Stout, who will play the central characters of Harry, Hermoine and Ron respectively, have been cast.

While discussion continues over how the new adaptation of Harry Potter will pan out to be and whether or not the kids and the other cast members of the HBO series measure up to the legacy of the movies, an audition tape of Arabella Stanton playing Hermione's part has gone viral. It also shows how she is the perfect fit to take on the role of the wizarding genius at Hogwarts.
