Warwick Davis is set to reprise his role as the beloved Professor Filius Flitwick, marking his homecoming to the wizarding world in the role he originated for the films.

There’a more! Set to join him at the teachers’ table is Sirine Saba as Professor Sprout and Richard Durden as Professor Cuthbert Binns, marking the first time we’ll get to meet the ghostly History of Magic teacher onscreen. Plus, the Hogwarts Hospital Wing is now fully staffed, as Bríd Brennan takes on the role Madam Poppy Pomfrey – the Hogwarts matron and highly skilled healer who can fix all manner of magical bumps and bruises.

The house tables are filling up too, as we welcome three more Hogwarts students: Elijah Oshin as Dean Thomas, Finn Stephens as Vincent Crabbe, and William Nash as Gregory Goyle.

Outside of Hogwarts, we learnt Gringotts’ Bank has gained an employee, with the announcement that Leigh Gill has been cast as the goblin, Griphook.
