Wizarding World (franchise)

The Wizarding World is a British multi-media franchise revolving around the fictional world of the Harry Potter series of books by J.K. Rowling.

The series began in 1997 with the publication of the original novel,, the first in a series of seven books, later adapted into a series of eight films, and accompanied by various spin-offs in book, film, video games, and theatre.

The series is set in the titular wizarding world, a secret, magical community in which the youth are sent off to wizarding schools to perfect their magical abilities. The novels that began the franchise revolved about the titular Harry Potter, an orphan who discovers his magical heritage on his eleventh birthday, and sent off to attend the prestigious Hogwarts School of Wotchcraft and Wizardry and, over a seven-year period, must prepare for his eventual final confrontation with the notorious dark wizard, Lord Voldemort. Later works set within the same universe included, but are nowhere near limited to, the film series, starring the character of Newt Scamander.

The Wizarding World's connections to the Doctor Who universe are present primarily through their extensive list of shared cast and crew, as well as the DWU's various references to the world, while also sharing two notable crossovers.
