Pottermore Publishing and Audible are proud to announce an all-star first lineup for Harry Potter: The Full-Cast Audio Editions. These brand-new productions of the original seven stories by J.K. Rowling will showcase the listening experiences as never heard before—offering immersive audio entertainment through high-quality sound design in Dolby Atmos, stunning scoring, captivating performances from A-list actors, original music, and real-world sound capture.
The Full-Cast Audio Editions complement the beloved single-voice English language recordings by Jim Dale and Stephen Fry, which have delighted audiences since they were first released in 1999. They have been unprecedented in their popularity since launching on Audible in 2015, with 1.8 billion global listening hours now reached. They will still be available for listeners as classic editions.
The full-cast edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone will debut on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, with each of the remaining six English-language audiobooks releasing monthly for a global audience; they can be pre-ordered here. Casting was completed in early 2025 and production is nearly wrapped with over 2,000 recording hours logged to date to create these complete, unabridged editions.
With over 200 actors, Harry Potter: The Full-Cast Audio Editions feature the most ambitious audiobook cast ever assembled. While the cast will be revealed in its entirety throughout this exciting launch, today, we are thrilled to announce the stars who will be lending their enchanting voices to key roles, including:
Golden Globe Award winner Hugh Laurie as Albus Dumbledore
Emmy, Golden Globe and BAFTA Award winner Matthew Macfadyen as Lord Voldemort
