Which company did J.K. Rowling found to produce screen adaptations of her wizarding stories?

J.K. Rowling founded Brontë Film and Television to produce screen adaptations of her wizarding stories.

The company was established in 2012 by Rowling and producer Neil Blair. Its name refers to the Brontë family, the influential English literary family that included novelists Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë and poet Branwell Brontë.

Brontë Film and Television became involved in productions connected with Rowling’s writing, including the Fantastic Beasts film series and the television adaptation of The Casual Vacancy. The company is distinct from Warner Bros., the studio that distributed and produced the Harry Potter film series.

Another frequent mix-up is Heyday Films, which produced the original Harry Potter films with Warner Bros. Brontë is Rowling’s own production company, created later as her work expanded into film and television projects beyond the original eight-film adaptation.
