That seems like a strategy that worked 30 years ago when the only source you might have would be Ain't It Cool News. In 2025 it will 100% be leaked. Why bother? It's not like whoever was cast is going to be some big shocking moment. Like, who actually gives a shit?
Who gives a shit, anyway. I never read the books, but liked the movies because the adults were really well cast and performed well. Snape, the Weasleys, McGonagall, Mad Eye Moody, nearly all the seasonal Dark Arts teachers. Hagrid, Severus, Bellatrix. IMO, all these made the movies, and I didn't care for Harry or Hermione at all.

The only kids I liked were Ron and Luna. The guy who played Ron showed up to casting and was scolded because he didn't learn his lines beforehand. He simply shrugged, and said, "Ron wouldn't have, neither."

Hired on the spot.

I like Luna because the actress who played her only did school plays, and was her life's dream to play Luna. Casting and even JK said she was 100% Luna. She even designed her own outfits which were used in the movies.

The movies were pretty damned good, and still hold up pretty well even today. Hard to believe Emma Watson is 41 years old.

Why bother trying to do it all over again? It was perfect the first time around. Any type of retread is just going to be a shitty retread.

I was going to thumbs up your post, right up to the point where you tried to make me feel even older than I already do. Living up to your name I see.

She was born in 1990. Stop trying to make me feel old.

Do we care about the author that doesn't write any more harry potters complaining about the cast that doesn't act any more? it's like two grandmas in the bleachers not even paying attention to the game.

Zaslav is the only one who thought he was going to get them to make a movie together. He had to settle for this woke re-envisioning TV series instead.

Rowling kept control of the IP, so she probably can scuttle this if she wants to. Other than that? No.

JKR approved of all of the woke shit in this new series, btw; she is the worst kind of liberal and deserves every bit of hate she gets on the trans issue because that is about the only good position she holds.
