This will probably be a better convo for a future episode, but thinking about what's next for the Wizarding World... it's not a sunny picture. You've got a 3rd FB movie that did OK (Just under $290 million total ticket sales) - critics termed it a "Successful disappointment". With Warner's merge with Discovery, they are in super cost-cutting and consolidation mode, which means another movie likely wouldn't get approved for a while. On the streaming side you're seeing further overexposure (CNN+ being canned, Netflix down) and the cost of episodes for some series are anywhere from $15 to $50 million (!). I just don't see any new content coming for at least another year or two, unless the new Hogwards Legacy video game takes off. Thoughts?
