JK Rowling Confesses What She Thinks About the New "Harry Potter." Fans Are Outraged

The series based on the Harry Potter books prepared by HBO is one of the most anticipated projects by fans at the moment. If we are to believe the words of the author of the series of popular novels being remade for the screen, JK Rowling, viewers can expect a great production. She has already read the scripts of the first two episodes and is delighted.

The first season of the series based on the novel series about the young wizard Harry Potter is about to start filming. JK Rowling has shared her thoughts on the scripts of the first two episodes . The writer has used social media to praise the creators of the HBO production.

"I've read the first two episodes of HBO's upcoming Harry Potter series. They are VERY, VERY, VERY good ," Rowling wrote on social media platform X.

When asked if she collaborated on the scripts, she replied that she had not, but that she had "collaborated with some exceptionally talented writers." This means that the writer will not be listed in the series' writing credits , as was the case with the Fantastic Beasts films.

HBO has made no secret of the fact that Rowling will be involved in the production of the series. Without specifying what this cooperation will look like. As reported by the head of the network, Casey Bloys , the author had a big influence on the choice of the series' showrunner, Francesca Gardiner , as well as the director, Mark Mylod.

Fans Outraged by JK Rowling's Involvement in New "Harry Potter"

The writer's involvement in the series, however, is controversial among many viewers due to Rowling's views on transgender people, among other things . This can be seen in the comments to the aforementioned entry by the author of the Harry Potter books.

- What happened that you are so excited about the scripts? Did they murder some transgender character in them? - you can read in the first comment that is gaining popularity.

The preparatory work necessary to start filming the series with the working title "Harry Potter" is underway. The names of the young actors who will play the roles of Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley were recently announced. They are Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton and Alastair Stout.
