As Warner Bros. embraces a new reboot for Harry Potter, a new rumor may indicate a game-changing casting choice for one of its lead stars.
Warner Bros. and Max (formerly HBO Max) surprised everyone when it officially announced that a Harry Potter series was in development, complete with an entirely new cast and a ten-year plan to more faithfully adapt the books.
This announcement led to mixed reactions from diehard fans, especially after The Wizarding World's controversial creator J.K. Rowling was reportedly on board with the reboot.

I never understand why it’s considered an insult to say “colored people”, but it’s considered ok to say “people of color”.
To: MinorityRepublican
Can’t ruin something that sucked to begin with so, go ahead.

Harry Potter will be a non white boy?
Will there be an obligatory gay character there as well?
What about trans and non binary?
To: MinorityRepublican
I never saw or read any Harry Potter? Do People of Color like it?
Also, isn't the author of the series now considered "worse than Hitler?" Why would they want to do such an unwoke project?

Robot Chicken had black Dumbledore covered over a decade ago.

Yeah, I personally don’t believe we need a reboot of one of the most overrated franchises of all time. I’d rather take Narnia or The Lord Of The Rings over this trash!

It would be faster and more efficient to just throw a few hundred million dollars into a bonfire. Same result.

The cabal is so desperate to perpetrate the occult on us they can’t see straight.

I don't understand why they want to change the originals of something. Don't they have any imagination? Why not make something new with all the wokeness they want to include?
