Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
The orphan boy Harry Potter grows up with his aunt's unfriendly family. On Harry's eleventh birthday, he learns from the semi-giant Rubeus Hagrid that he is a wizard and that his parents were killed by an evil magician named Lord Voldemort . While trying to kill Harry, who was then a year old, Voldemort's death spell miraculously ricocheted off Harry, struck Voldemort and left him in a weak and helpless state. This incident made Harry well known in the wizarding world as he is the only person who ever survived the killing curse. Harry begins his training as a student at Hogwarts School of Magic . He befriends his classmates Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger . Together they prevent Voldemort from attaining the Philosopher's Stone and thus gaining new strength.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Harry, Ron and Hermione are returning to Hogwarts for their sophomore year. There the Chamber of Secrets was opened, in which a monster dwells that petrifies various students. Harry has to defend himself against allegations that he is the heir to Salazar Slytherin , who is said to have laid out the chamber as one of the four school founders. With the help of Ron and Hermione, Harry finds the chamber and kills the monster, the basilisk , with the sword of Gryffindor. He also destroys a diary in which part of Voldemort was preserved and with the help of which Voldemort had influenced others.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Shortly before school starts, Harry accidentally meets the traveling knight who takes him to Diagon Alley. Harry learns that the alleged murderer Sirius Black , who is said to have betrayed Harry's parents to Voldemort, broke out of the wizard's prison in Azkaban , allegedly to kill Harry. The Ministry of Magic sends Dementors to Hogwarts because Black is expected to appear there for Harry's third year. Harry learns from his new teacher Remus Lupine how to defend himself against the dangerous Dementors. Harry finds out that Black is his godfather, that Harry's parents were always loyal and that they were actually betrayed by Peter Pettigrew . Pettigrew was previously known as Ron's Rat Scabies. Black had broken out to get revenge on Pettigrew. Harry and Hermione help Black escape from the Ministry of Magic.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
In Harry's fourth year, Hogwarts hosts the Triwizard Tournament , a legendary competition between three schools of sorcery. The magic goblet of fire chooses one champion per school to represent its school in the competition: Fleur Delacour , Viktor Krum and Cedric Diggory . To everyone's astonishment, this time the Goblet of Fire chose Harry, a fourth student, to take part in the tournament. Thanks to the support of friends and teachers, Harry wins the competition with Diggory. However, the tournament trophy is a trap that sends the two students to a cemetery. There they await Peter Pettigrew and Voldemort in the form of a disgusting baby that Pettigrew carries in his arms. At his master's behest, Wormtail Cedric kills Diggory. A magical rebirth ritual helps Voldemort to his old form. The black magician gathers his most loyal helpers, the so-called Death Eaters , around him and tries to kill Harry. Harry can escape, however. The Death Eater Barty Crouch Jr. is exposed, who helped Harry to participate and to victory in the form of the teacher Alastor Moody in order to bring Harry into the power of Voldemort.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Before the start of his fifth year of school, Harry is attacked by Dementors and then gets to his godfather Sirius Black. The Order of the Phoenix , a secret organization that Voldemort fights , also meets in his house . The Ministry of Magic denies the return of the Dark Lord and tries to make Harry unbelievable (as a witness to what happened). Likewise, it discredits Harry's strongest advocate, Hogwarts Headmaster Albus Dumbledore . The Ministry sends Dolores Umbridge to the school as a new teacher. She gradually brings Hogwarts under her control, despite the opposition of most students and teachers, but with the support of the Ministry, until she is provoked with an insult to centaurs and abducted by them. Harry and some of his classmates, with the support of the Order of the Phoenix, prevent Death Eaters from stealing a prophecy about the fate of Harry and Voldemort from the Ministry of Magic. Harry's godfather Sirius is killed in the battle for the prophecy. Furthermore, Voldemort is seen by the Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge and other witnesses, which means that the return of Lord Voldemort can no longer be denied.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
During Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts, the violence of Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters against both wizards and muggles increases. Dumbledore convinces his old friend Horace Slughorn to return to Hogwarts as a teacher. Dumbledore secretly hopes to learn from Slughorn the secret of Voldemort's survival. Harry and Dumbledore find out that Voldemort made seven Horcruxes . These are objects that conserve parts of Voldemort's soul and secure him immortality until they are destroyed. Two of these objects have already been destroyed, Harry and Dumbledore start looking for more. Meanwhile, Draco Malfoy gives several Death Eaters access to Hogwarts, who provide Dumbledore. Since Malfoy fails Voldemort's assignment to kill Dumbledore, Severus Snape completes the task and kills Dumbledore.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1
Voldemort overthrows the Ministry of Magic and takes power. Because of their hunt for the remaining four Horcruxes of Voldemort and his reign of terror, Harry, Ron and Hermione cannot return to Hogwarts for their senior year and go into hiding. They can locate and destroy the third Horcrux. You will also learn about the Sanctuaries of Death : an invisibility cloak, the Resurrection Stone, which can be used to bring the dead back to the world of the living, and an invincible wand known as the Elder Wand. The trio are captured at Malfoy Manor , but are able to escape. Voldemort steals the Elder Wand from Dumbledore's grave.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2
With the help of the goblin Griphook , Harry, Ron and Hermione steal the fourth Horcrux from Gringott's wizarding bank , which they later destroy. To find the fifth, they return to Hogwarts. The majority of the teachers and students take Harry's side and defend Hogwarts against the attacking Death Eaters. Harry finds the fifth Horcrux, which he destroys with a basilisk tooth. He also learns that he is a Horcrux himself, as Voldemort unknowingly transferred a soul fragment to him when he tried to kill one-year-old Harry. He has to let Voldemort kill him to make him mortal again. He surrenders to this fate, but survives the fatal attack again, as only Voldemort's soul piece is destroyed in him. In the ensuing battle, Neville destroys the last Horcrux by killing Nagini, the serpent. Then Harry defeats Voldemort in a duel.
A glimpse into the future shows how Harry, Ron and Hermione take their respective children to the train at Hogwarts 19 years after the event.
production
Emergence
In late 1997, David Heyman's production company received a copy of Rowling's debut novel Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone . Heyman, who at the time was looking for a children's book to make into a family film, gave it a low priority because he thought the title was “rubbish” (German: “garbage”). He only read it on the recommendation of an employee who had taken the book home with her for leisure reading. Impressed he suggested the author and Warner Bros. before the filming. Rowling only agreed to the project when Warner was ready to assure her significant say in the implementation of the film, the merchandising products and possible successors. In particular, she made sure that all sequels must be based on her novels. In addition, she insisted that all actors be British and that British English be spoken in the films .
In close collaboration with Rowling, Steven Kloves converted the novel into a script . He stayed close to the original and kept in touch with Rowling to avoid contradictions with later, as yet unpublished parts of the Harry Potter series. Steven Spielberg was initially planned as the director , but he canceled at the beginning of 2000. Talks then began with a number of other well-known Hollywood directors, from whom Chris Columbus was ultimately selected in late March 2000. According to Heyman, it was primarily Columbus' desire to be as faithful to Rowling's work as possible that ultimately tipped the balance in his favor.
In order to cast the many children's roles, especially the leading roles of Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, a publicly advertised casting was carried out for months . There were over 40,000 applications for the title character alone. In August 2000, Warner Bros. finally announced that the choice had fallen on Daniel Radcliffe, who had been largely unknown in the film business . newcomers to the genre, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint , had been selected for the roles of Hermione and Ron, respectively. The other children's roles were almost without exception cast by inexperienced young actors who had previously only worked in school theater productions. In contrast, the adult ensemble is a compilation of successful and well-known British actors, many of them members of the Royal Shakespeare Company . A large part was filled according to Rowling's wish list.
By the time the first film was released in November 2001, four of the seven Harry Potter novels, all of which had achieved sales records, had already appeared. A fan cult had developed around the world around the young magician student, which led to a correspondingly high level of interest in the film adaptation of the material. The production was under close observation by the international media, and the filming in public places had to be shielded from fans from day one. It was therefore foreseeable that the screen version would be a financial success, similar to the books, and the second movie was planned accordingly early on. Filming began on November 19, 2001, just three days after the first part opened in theaters. At that time, Steven Kloves was already busy reworking the third novel into a script.

The soundtrack contains almost no vocals. In the third part, Hogwarts' students sing a short song at the beginning. Bruce Springsteen said he had submitted the song I'll Stand by You Always , but it was not used.
Directors
After filming Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone , Chris Columbus was also hired for the second film, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets . He should have continued the series with the third film, but canceled to direct because he felt burned out and wanted to spend more time with his family. Instead, he took on the role of producer alongside Heyman and Mark Radcliffe for the third film; The director of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was Alfonso Cuarón .
The withdrawal of the "family director" Columbus from this role went hand in hand with the "increasingly dark mood of the book" and "Harry's ever darker life." While the two Columbus films are considered to be very similar to each other, the To be continued under the direction of Cuarón as a fundamental innovation. Also Mike Newell , director of the fourth film, put his own version of the novel, with its film adaptation. His adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire continues the development from children's to youth. To an interview question about whether the fourth part was still a film for children, Newell clearly answered: “No, it is a film for young people.” In the same interview, Newell stated that the repeated change of director was a “decision of the Producers ”, who, in his opinion, provide a“ pleasant change ”. In addition, the roughly two-year workload per film "makes it almost impossible to take on two successive films". Although Newell had also been offered directing another film, he turned it down. He was succeeded by David Yates , who directed all four other films.
In an interview, David Heyman praised the directors' cooperation with their respective successors. Despite what Heyman saw was a natural competitive relationship, they would have worked together in an astonishingly generous manner and passed on advice.
Scripts
Steven Kloves wrote all of the scripts except the fifth, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix . He declined the assignment for this part because he was busy with another project - he wrote the script and directed the film adaptation of the novel Supergute Tage or The Odd World of Christopher Boone . The screenplay for the Order of the Phoenix was written by Michael Goldenberg , who was one of the screenwriters' selection for the first film. The work samples that he submitted at the time agreed with the producers, but in the end they gave Kloves priority.
During the development of the scripts, Kloves kept in close contact with Rowling. In this way, he was able to ensure that smaller details remained consistent when converting text into film, and at the same time avoiding the film contradicting later, as yet unpublished parts of the Harry Potter series. As far as Kloves added his own dialogues, he tried to interpolate the novel , and Rowling approved the parts she thought fit. Kloves felt well supported by Rowling from the start. In an interview, he expressed that she was always available to answer questions and at the same time left him enormous freedom in adapting her works. Rowling described the relationship with Kloves as very intense. Apart from herself, no one else was as deeply immersed in the Potter world as Kloves.

Age ratings
In Great Britain, the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) rated the films with PG as unsuitable for children under the age of seven, and from the fourth film onwards they awarded the stricter rating 12A , which allows children under twelve to be accompanied by an adult. In the United States, the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) placed them in classes PG and PG-13 ; The former recommends being accompanied by an adult, while the latter recommends only making the film accessible to children from the age of thirteen. In Germany and Austria, the Voluntary Self-Regulation of the Film Industry (FSK) and the Youth Media Commission (JMK) set age limits from which cinema visits are permitted. Different classifications are available to you. For example, the FSK has to give a film that it does not consider suitable for six-year-olds to be released from the age of twelve, whereas the JMK remains an alternative for ten-year-olds. The assessments of the FSK are usually also adopted in Switzerland.
The following table gives an overview of the different age ratings that the films have been given in different countries.

| 8th | ... the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 | 12A | PG-13 | 12 | 12 |
Age ratings were the subject of public debate in many places. Again and again at the core of the question was the extent to which younger children can be frightened and disoriented by the depiction of sorcery and black magic. For example, politicians, church representatives, parents and members of the press took part in the controversy over the age rating of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in Germany. The demands ranged up to the temporary complete ban of the film. There were similar reactions in other countries and to the films that followed. The books had sparked disputes about the suitability of the material for children; some of them had been indexed and removed from libraries after allegations of “temptation to the occult” and the “glorification of Satanism” .
