J.K. Rowling Praises Harry Potter Series, Worked ‘Closely’ With Writers

With HBO’s highly anticipated “Harry Potter” series gearing up for production, J.K. Rowling has expressed her enthusiastic support for the project. The renowned author confirmed that she has collaborated closely with the talented writers involved in the show, although she will not be receiving any writing credits, unlike her involvement in the “Fantastic Beasts” movies.

In a recent post on X, Rowling shared her excitement after reading the first two episodes of the upcoming HBO series, describing them as “SO, SO, SO GOOD!” This endorsement from the creator of the beloved magical world of Harry Potter has undoubtedly sparked even more anticipation among fans.

From the outset, HBO made it clear that Rowling would play a role in the development of the television adaptation of her iconic book series. Network CEO Casey Bloys emphasized Rowling’s active involvement in selecting showrunner Francesca Gardiner and director Mark Mylod to lead the charge on the “Harry Potter” TV series.

Despite Rowling’s integral role in bringing the series to life, she has faced criticism for her controversial statements on social media, particularly regarding transgender issues. This has led to backlash against HBO and the new “Harry Potter” cast for associating with Rowling. However, Bloys has assured fans that the show will not reflect Rowling’s personal views on transgender individuals.

The casting for the series includes Dominic McLaughlin as Harry Potter, Arabella Stanton as Hermione Granger, and Alastair Stout as Ron Weasley. Additionally, the supporting cast features renowned actors such as John Lithgow, Janet McTeer, Paapa Essiedu, and Nick Frost in key roles.

Rowling made headlines for her stance on diversity within the series, particularly when she supported Paapa Essiedu after he spoke out against a controversial ruling on transgender rights. Rowling emphasized that she respects differing beliefs and values inclusivity within the cast and crew of the “Harry Potter” series.

Production for the highly anticipated series is set to begin later this year, with a premiere scheduled for 2026. Despite the controversies surrounding Rowling, HBO remains committed to delivering a captivating adaptation of the beloved wizarding world that has captured the hearts of millions worldwide. Fans can look forward to experiencing the magic of “Harry Potter” in a new and exciting format on the small screen.

    Many won’t watch because of the woke tick box casting that changes the way some characters treat others

    I won’t watch it. They promised a faithful adaptation and then blackwash a main character.
    I won’t give a second of my watch time to those liars.

      Frédéric Pannatier but JKR is ok with the new Snape. So what’s your beef? I guess you don’t agree with her anti-trans views then.

        Ian Stuart Cuthbert I don’t care what JKR thinks of it. I am old enough to decide what I want to watch or not.
