Fan CastingHERMIONE GRANGER (2028)

Before she was the strategist of the Golden Trio, before she led house-elf liberation or erased her parents' memories, Hermione Granger spent her summers alone—disconnected from Hogwarts, surrounded by a Muggle world that never truly understood her. In this character-driven mystery series, Granger follows Hermione between her second and fourth years at Hogwarts. Haunted by her petrification in Chamber of Secrets, Hermione returns home to confront a question she’s never dared ask: What if knowledge isn’t enough? While Harry faces monsters and prophecies, Hermione quietly discovers an ancient magical conspiracy buried in the forgotten corners of magical history—through sentient books, lost spells, and magical memorywork. Each summer, she digs deeper into the foundations of wizarding society, uncovering erased witches, unspoken prejudice, and the cost of trying to be perfect in a world that will never fully accept her. But as her power grows, so does the cost of using it. Her summers become training grounds for resistance—against conformity, against silence, and against becoming the very kind of witch she swore she'd never be.
