A sneak peek into Rise of the Phoenix S04E04: SOUL SEARCHING, coming 3 December 2022!

[riseofthephoenixscreenplay]

We will be delaying the official release of S04E04 by one week! This is the first co-written episode, and it’s very special to us, so we just want to make sure we take the time to do a final pass beforehand. As you can imagine, it is not easy to communicate 10 series worth of plots to another writer.

On a similar note, we are looking for new proofreaders -- please message us if you are interested!

To tide you over, tomorrow we will be posting a flurry of teasers for the rest of S4!

UPCOMING!

Rise of the Phoenix is returning, and we’re bringing a lot to the table!

On November 26th, 2022, Series 4 will resume, with the launch of a very special episode: Soul Searching. This episode will focus on Voldemort’s past in a way we’ve never seen before, and has a featured new writer: S.L. Rhodes!

Series 4 will post weekly until its conclusion with the epic finale on December 24th, 2022.

After that, there will be a fairly short hiatus, to make up for the long one, and Series 5 will begin in February (date TBD)!

And...for the most exciting bit of news...

Our audio drama has now recorded the first episode of the show!

It’s got a stellar team and cast, and we’re so excited to share it with the world. We are still looking for a few roles we’ve had yet to cast, so keep an eye out for Casting Calls in the coming months.

You can anticipate a teaser trailer in January!

Thank you all for being on this journey with us thus far, and thank you for your patience! We hope to see you continue on with us in the months to come!

I've been following Rise of the Phoenix for a while, and it is so well written. I hope your series is still going .

It's still going, much happening behind the scenes! Stay tuned!

I just want to say that I think you fit what is canon and what is not about the characters perfectly. I haven't read Harry Potter in six years, so I didn't remember the marauders/snape flashbacks much. When I finished reading the screenplay, though, as I was already missing the story, I went looking for marauders scenes in the books and there were some scenes that I didn't know they were canon. The way I can't tell the difference between what you write and what is in the books just goes to show+

+how good of a job you do depicting their personalities - and their evolution too. When I compare their scenes when they were 11 with the ones when they're 14, there's clearly a difference and I can tell they're growing up. Honestly, I'm just in love with this whole series. Thank you so much for starting this project!

This is one of the best things about writing this series... I really love writing these characters as kids, and then watching them grow and learn and become the characters that fanon really sees them as. It makes it all the more heartbreaking when you remember how everything ends for them. They started out 11, now they’re 14...and we’re heading towards 21 in a blink of an eye!

It’s been a week since I finished reading the screenplay and I can’t stop thinking about it. I think one of the reasons why I can’t wait to read more is because it’s so accurate and respectful to what is canon that I actually feel like it is canon. I really feel like I’m watching a Marauders Era series and it’s damn exciting. Good job! 😍

So wonderful to hear you’ve enjoyed reading it! I do my best to keep it as accurate to canon as possible, while putting all the little details I feel like make it its own thing... Hope you enjoy the rest, when it comes out!

James: I was wondering if you'd maybe want to go to Hogsmeade this weekend? / Me: well, good luck on the next 3 years of your life

Poor James... He’s got an uphill battle coming up.

Hi,

is there a date that you will start posting new episodes?

Thank youuu!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Announcement coming end of this month... You can probably guess the date of when you should keep your eyes on this site. 👀

[riseofthephoenixscreenplay]

Just read the first episode. Oh. My. God. I'm so in love with this. I'm gonna cry. Thank you so much for creating it all! Can't wait to read more!!

Oh, a new reader! I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed the first episode. I hope the rest is just as entertaining!

[riseofthephoenixscreenplay]

it's so funny seeing everybody asking about wolfstar and blackinnon, it's like we all collectively know sirius/mary is not going to last lmao it's evil but i want mary to be heartbroken so bad

HA. It’ll be a fun journey! Perhaps I should put a poll out and see what people think it’ll end up as... No spoilers from me, though!

Dear L. B. Fleury, I've been following "Rise of the Phoenix" for a while, and I think it's really well written; I think it would be a beutiful tv series, and a much better spin-off of the Harry Potter franchise than, say, the "Fantastic Beasts" series. Are there going to be any new episodes soon? With my kindest regards, LC

Episodes definitely coming soon. Keep an eye out for an announcement later this month... ;)

i don't even want a wizarding world marauders series if it's not this one 😭😭 i just can't see anything being better. i think if it were to happen they wouldn't make a ten-seasons show covering everything we want because it'd be too much, unfortunately. they'd probably go for 1975-1981 or something. at least there's gonna be an animated rotp series so i'm really excited!! can't wait

I just see it as so much bigger than just the Marauders that it really deserves a full 10 series. But, yes, logistically, it would be a very difficult commitment! Alas, there is much more power in the written word, animation, and imagination!

Hello! I just wanted to say that I absolutely LOVE the Rise of the Phoenix series! It's brilliant, I liked it so much that I've read everything in about 3 days. Can't wait for another episode to come out!

THANK YOU! I'm so happy to hear you've enjoyed the journey thus far. More news coming soon!

I'm a college student and can't really travel anywhere during the year except for my semester breaks. Can I still audition?

Absolutely! We are a remote audio series!

[riseofthephoenixscreenplay]

Heyy huge fan of the Mauraders Era here, I want to thank you for the amazing story you've created, your world-building and detail is incredible, I can't believe we might actually get to see it come to life!! Are there any more episodes coming? I'm totally hooked (no pressure though, I completely understand you are busy with the adaptation/casting process). Sending much love from 🇲🇽💜

Thank you for the very nice message! There’s plenty of episodes coming; we’ve been prepping a lot (audio series & screenplay alike) and working on finally getting it out into the world!

[riseofthephoenixscreenplay]

Please do come back soon. I miss reading the series so very much!!!

Soon, I promise!
