Add us as a preferred source on Google »JK Rowling has reignited her feud with the Harry Potter cast.
The writer fell out with and the trio of stars from the film series after they spoke out against her anti-trans comments in 2020.
When asked on X 'what actor/actress instantly ruins a movie for you?’, the 59-year-old decided shadily replied:‘Three guesses.’
‘Sorry, but that was irresistible. 🤣🤣🤣’ she added.
In an essay about surviving sexual assault which Rowling published in 2020, she called transgender identity 'deeply misogynistic and regressive'.
She often made further anti-trans comments and suggestions.
All three actors who starred in the hugely famous film series responded to the essay with statements supportive of trans rights.
Daniel Radcliffe who played the lead role of Harry Potter said: “Transgender women are women. Any statement to the contrary erases the identity and dignity of transgender people.”
In a social media statement, Emma Watson who portrayed Hermione Granger, wrote: “Trans people are who they say they are and deserve to live their lives without being constantly questioned.”
Additionally, Rupert Grint who played Ron Weasley stated: "I firmly stand with the trans community... Trans women are women. Trans men are men. We should all be entitled to live with love and without judgment."
Just last year, Radcliffe revealed to The Atlantic that he had not been in contact with Rowling since the feud erupted.
Fans reacted to Rowlings snide social media post, with some labelling the Harry Potter trio as 'ungrateful'.
Others have condemned her comments, telling her to 'move on'.
HBO are currently in the process of a Harry Potter reboot series.
The show will focus on one book per season, with actors such as Cillian Murphy, rumored to be involved.
