John Lihjo is not afraid by Harry Potter fans.
The actor, 79, conducted an interview with the Times of London newspaper, which was published on Sunday, where he addressed the violent reaction he obtained to join the HBO “Harry Potter” series due to JK Rowling's counter -differences.
Litju said that he “certainly” did not expect to get a lot of hatred from the author's many critics.
“Of course, it was a great decision because it is likely to be the last main role that I will play,” said Lito. “It is an eight -year commitment, so I was only thinking about the deaths and that this is a very good role.”
The star “Conclave” revealed that before he signs the “Harry Potter” show to play Professor Albus Dumbledore, “a very good friend who is the mother of a transient child” sent him an open message entitled “An Open Message to John Litjo: Please walk away from Harry Potter.”
“This was the Canary in CoalMine,” said Lithu.
He added: “I thought,” Why is this an agent at all? “I wonder how JK Rowling absorbed it.
When asked if the reverse reaction made him reconsider joining the actors, Lithu answered, “Oh, the heavens no.”
Rolling's controversial comments have been met with a transgender community with a violent reaction over the past few years. The stars of “Harry Potter” Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson spoke so that she does not publicly agree with her back in 2020.
Despite her views, Rolling is one of the executive producers of HBO television adaptation for a series of famous books.
Casey BLOYS, CEO of HBO, confirmed in November that Rolling “somewhat participated” in making the show, which is expected to be the first time in Max in 2026.
“I have participated in the process of selecting the writer and director,” Blwes told reporters at a press event. “I imagine that she will get opinions about casting. It did not affect the pouring or employment of the book, production employees, or anything, so we did not feel any effect of that.”
Litju confirmed in the “Harry Potter” series in February.
“It was a complete surprise for me,” he told Screen Rant. “I just received a phone call at the Sandans Film Festival for another movie, and this was not an easy decision because it will introduce me to the last chapter of my life, I am afraid.”
“I am very excited. Some wonderful people bring their attention to” Harry Potter “, continued Litjo.” For this reason this was a difficult decision. I will be about 87 years old at a wrap, but I said yes. “
