J.K. Rowling's The Casual Vacancy is coming to HBO -- eventually.

While the miniseries, which the network produced in partnership with BBC, will air in the UK on Feb. 15, fans of the Harry Potter author's much more adult book will have to wait a little longer -- until April, to be exact.

Parts one and two will air on April 29, from 8-10 p.m. ET, and part three will air April 30, from 8-9 p.m. ET, the network confirmed Wednesday.

The Casual Vacancy tells the interpersonal stories of the residents living in an idyllic English village called Pagford.

The cast includes Michael Gambon, Keeley Hawes, Rory Kinnear, Monica Dolan and Julia McKenzie, and newcomer Abigail Lawrie.

BBC released a trailer for the miniseries earlier this week, which you can watch above.
