THANK YOU! He’s not being “booted” and even with a TV Show to SO MANY of us Dan will ALWAYS be Harry Potter and God Bless the child that takes the role over.
Personally I think they should focus on the Mauraders like so many of us have been requesting.
Daniel’s face is EVERYWHERE And on everything . You will never see WB completely cut ties with him.
If he plays a role, I’d love to see him as Sirius Black.
He may be willing to do a cameo. But he has been very vocal about not being ready to come back as HP. They would need a better story than Cursed Child to lure him back.
I’d like the trio of grovellers to woke extremism getting the same disgusting treatment THEY dished out to the person whose talent gave THEM their break – and in return they insulted her and stabbed her in the back
Her crime ? To say a man is NOT a woman
Offensive only to these vile self-serving hypocrites
The woke psychopaths thought they would get the same ass licking from the general populance for the Potter game – the bulging eyed ranting spittle flying and shrieking from the hetertophobes didn’t work though the game is a massive seller
I always thought that the Harry Potter series should have been made a TV series rather than movies. That way, there’s enough time to show every part of the books, and not just get crammed into 2 hours each.
The movie actors should not be in the TV show so that they don’t cross contaminate. The previous Harry Potter shouldn’t now be his own father, obviously.
I wish it was Disney that is making this. But, Disney let Universal build Harry Potter World, now they are letting HBO make the TV series. Too bad.
Disney “let” Universal, not WB. Because JKR wants complete creative control over how the land was designed, the costumes, and what the merchandise and food was like. Universal gave her that.
Disney has nothing to do with the Wizarding World franchise and I for one would never want them to as Disney is woke and run by groomers! If the three mains want to be woke too then they can be replaced.
OMG, do you even know what a groomer is? My entire adult life has been as a sexual assault advocate, and you have no idea what the wordcreally means, so just stop!! You insult actual victims!!!
He hasn’t been “booted”. They haven’t cast anyone yet. By that same logic, all of the original actors/actresses have been “booted”. This was inevitable.
I was delighted to read those three did themselves a LOT of damage, and the woke mob are beginning to be seen for the vile destructive parasites to the industry they are and are slowly being booted out and dispossessed
Meh. I don’t intend to watch anything that puts another dime into Rowling’s pocket. God knows I’ve spent enough on enriching her before she showed the world what a nasty bigot she is. And shame on HBO Max for even considering any project involving her.
We shouldn’t celebrate mental illnesses. Anyone who supports mutilating bodies and giving children hormones to “change genders” needs to rethink how they view the world.
this is entirely projection as always. the only people who are given hormones and surgery without consent are intersex children, and the anti-trans movement fully supports this
JKR a Nasty bigot? No. The definition of bigot is “a person who is obstinately or unreasonably attached to a belief, opinion, or faction, especially one who is prejudiced against or antagonistic toward a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.” That sounds like the intolerant people who believe that she’s not entitled to free speech or her belief about what it means to be a woman.
It’s not possible to be “booted” from something you haven’t been cast in. That said, HARD PASS to a show about Harry Potter’s (stupidly) named children. The only Harry Potter thing I want and will never get is anything and everything related to the Marauders.
Of course he was replaced. He isn’t a child anymore and can’t play a child. Booted implied fired. Until they make this series and all that just look at every picture or video or whatever in Orlando at the theme park and it’s still him.
I think Rowling will give back to them the same knife in the back they so eagerly gave to the person who give them their all important first break that they WOULDN’T have got otherwise.
We are allowed to exercise our freedom of speech rights and if this includes not supporting those who think you are a woman just because you decided one day that’s what u wanted to be after being a male ur whole life, then so be it. I’m sorry but I don’t have to support this movement, and I won’t…period.
Well said. This place reeks of woketard hypocrites solely on here to push theirr diseased agenda implanted into their empty heads by others
Note how little they seem to know about the stories other that the spite on subject from others
I cut the three of them slack because they are young. That makes them vulnerable in the business. And unfortunately they are part of this younger generation that has been duped to believe questioning mutilating children is somehow being trans bigots. This is the fight of our time. And I speak is someone with a degree in psychology who was taught body dysmorphia is a mental illness that needs treatment and compassion. Not to become a science experiment for the profit of others.
They never said a word about trans children. JKR said trans adults don’t exist, and they don’t agree with her. Stop pushing YOUR agenda as hers or the opposite of what they’ve said they’re against when you don’t know their opinions on the matter
The only thing that makes me sad about HP is three entitled brats who made their fame and fortune off Rowling only to turn on her for having an opinion of her own about a very complex topic.
How dare they as grown adults have their own opinion instead of following the lead of someone who wrote fantasy books that were turned into movies that they were in as children.
Lets look at this LOGICALLY!!! If each book is to be a season, than (again logically) Daniel Radcliffe is already too old to play Harry Potter in season 1. There is no way he could play a boy just turning 12 years old.
Can you be “booted” if you never had anything to be “booted” from? 🤔
Also this “kids” would be too old to be playing there same characters. Harry is having his second kid. QUIT trying to stir the pot where there is no soup. Quit trying divide people.
This article is a reach, nobody expects the original cast to be in this series. A few surprise cameos would be fun, but an entire new cast is needed to breathe new life into this franchise.
Also there were a few narrow-minded anti-trans comments. Please do some research. Sex and gender are not the same thing. There are more than two biological sexes, people can be born intersex and it happens all the time. Chromosomes can occur in combinations other than XX and XY. Both parts can be present on a baby. Children as young as 7 are choosing to end their own lives because the parents will not let them be themselves. Maybe we should listen to our children. Also JK has started to backpedal on her original comments. As an author I believe her comments were more focused on the change in language use and she’s realizing it was taken the wrong way. Please reverence her new podcast interviews.
JK Needs to write at least one story that takes place between the end of Deathly Hollows and the 19 years that ended the movie. I find it Very Hard to believe that after all that Happened they all just had “normal” lives, nothing ever happed ,ever. Also ,don’t pull a Lucas. waiting 30 years for the original cast to be too old isn’t the way either.
If they are remaking the series as a TV show with them going to Hogwarts school then obvioisly all the child actors need to be replaced with child actors (because adults would not be going to a kid school). If thay are continuing the movie series, I would love to see the original characters as parents sending their kids off to Hogwarts.
Duh, did anyone expect a 33 year old to play a 13 year old? How can he be booted when there’s not even a show, cast, or anything concrete yet? Do better, this article is embarrassing
I won’t watch. The success of turning successful movies into tv series is not good. The mortal instruments comes to mind.
Dan, Emma and Rupert are those characters. They could easily be teacher at hogwarts or work for the ministry of magic. You could do eight original series of the Marauders. Which would pull the fan base with out excluding the original trio.
I won’t watch a redo of the original. May even cancel HBO.
Boot him out. If he can’t support the creator of a series that made him a household name and made him rich, why should he benefit more from JKR’s brilliance?
Comments for Daniel Radcliffe Booted From ‘Harry Potter’ Amid Backlash
Christian
As a…….”journalist”…….(I say laughingly), tell me you don’t know what booted means without telling me.
You look like the kind of “guy” who has a pinterest account and says things like “delish” and “veggies” 😅

Disney “let” Warner? Warner had the rights; how does this make any sense?

Stephanie
Disney didn’t make or ever own the rights to any of the Harry Potter movies. They have nothing to do with the franchise since Warner Brothers owns it.
Basileus
Afterv WB treated her so disgustingly to appease the woke turds, she should offer it up to others
NCPFL
Disney has nothing to do with the Wizarding World franchise and I for one would never want them to as Disney is woke and run by groomers! If the three mains want to be woke too then they can be replaced.

Glad they are doing a reboot and are leaving out the “spoiled 3”. Wouldn’t watch it if they were in it. Don’t care for people who shit where they eat.
Al
I bet the three wouldn’t be in it if they offered it

I think Rowling will give back to them the same knife in the back they so eagerly gave to the person who give them their all important first break that they WOULDN’T have got otherwise.

Since when are people not allowed to have their own opinions? It’s a sad world when someone is censored for not following the woke agenda.

Movie stars don’t play the same characters for TV. Nuff said.
SES
‘Harry Potter’ in the first book is an 11 year old boy. Daniel Radcliffe is 33. He shouldn’t even be considered.
JJ
“Booted”, huh? In what world would any casting executive hire a 35+ year old man to play an 11 year old boy?
Basileus
Rowling is writing about the kids (One woke dimwit objecting to term “children” for Gods sakle….)
VBW
He was not booted. He wasn’t even cast. With that said, the original three can’t make themselves young again, so they can’t be part of the TV cast.
I am one of the ones that would like the movies to continue with the original cast as now adults, and their children being the students.
Ravena

In the 1950’s homosexuality was considered a mental illness. Then in the 70’s they realized they were wrong. Give it time professor.

So they can’t have opinions, right. Hypocritical of you lot to whinge about the author not being able to have an opinion, and yet you do the same.

It sucks changing the actor whome made the character come alive. Do not change him! It would be a tragedy.
