The criticism has focused on the new ‘Harry Potter’ series, scheduled to premiere in late 2026 or early 2027, after it was revealed that Paapa Essiedu would play Severus Snape. His skin color is what has most upset many fans, although his views on the trans community have also not gone unnoticed, especially for creator J.K. Rowling.Eddie Redmayne or Pedro Pascal are some of the Hollywood actors who, along with Essiedu, have spoken out in favor of the rights of LGBTQ+ people, something that the writer does not like, but accepts, or so she says in a recent publication on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“I do not have the power to fire an actor from the series and would not exercise it if I did,” he wrote. “I do not believe in taking away people’s jobs or livelihoods for having legally protected beliefs that differ from my own.”

HBO has assured that “they are not going to include anti-trans rhetoric” that Rowling would have imposed in the films: “Our priority is what is seen on screen. Obviously the story of Harry Potter is incredibly affirmative and positive, and it is about love and self-acceptance. That is our priority: what is seen on screen,” they explain in Deadline.

Pedro Pascal, against JK Rowling: “Despicable loser”
The actor has already criticized the writer harshly, as he is a staunch defender of trans people, because his sister Lux is part of the group. “A horrible, disgusting shit, just like that. Despicable loser behavior,” were the words he dedicated to her after the posts published by her.
Rowling was pleased when the UK approved: “The terms ‘woman’ and ‘sex’ in the Equality Act 2010 refer to a biological woman and biological sex.”

Dál už hrát kvůli kolenu nešlo?Nešlo, už pomalu dva měsíce netrénuju. Ještě jsem se jakž takž připravil na tento zápas. Všichni jsme si malovali, jak by to mohlo končit, všichni jsme doufali, že se dostaneme do první skupiny. Bohužel zápas s Karvinou tomu nenahrál, ale takhle je to zkrátka někde napsané… Ten svůj poslední zápas jsem si dnes odehrál. Třeba Theo (Gebre Selassie uzavřel kariéru se zraněním - pozn. red.) ho nehrál…Po zápase se s vámi fanoušci i spoluhráči dojemně loučili, klub vám předal dres s číslem 200, neboť právě tolik utkání jste za Liberec v první lize odehrál. Dostaly vás emoce?Určitě. Už celý den jsem nad tím přemýšlel. Najednou všechno děláte naposledy, ale tak to prostě je. Emoce tam nakonec byly. Byla tady i má rodina. Holt něco celý život děláte a najednou to z ničeho nic skončí. Ale začne nová etapa. Doufám, že už jsem připravený […]
