Film producers are planning a woke version of the Harry Potter movies in which the magical characters will be played by transgender and non-binary actors.

The article notes that JKR may sue,personally I think this would be a mistake, imagine gender ideology write large in living color and beamed into everyone’s living room. I wonder how that would be received by an unsuspecting public?

No, you've missed the obvious casting - must be Arnold Schwarzenegger for Voldemort, surely? Then every time they destroy a horcrux he gets to say "But....I'll be back..!"

Genius Ginasour I love it.

I'm trying to think of child actors but I don't know any.

HP fans think that the books don't belong to JKR anymore, it belongs to them. You see this being said over and over again on Reddit, Discord etc. They are really struggling with loving the books and hating her "transphobic" views. It's quite painful to see sometimes. I guess the person who wants to make a woke version of the film belongs to this category of fan.

Well, if we go back to the op's woke version (sorry for the bit of a derail!) I think it might have to be Elliott Page, who, for all he says he's really happy now, still looks like he's been kept in a cupboard under the stairs for the last ten years..

Nothing at all, they are that genre of enjoyably bad which I think this could be. Grin

Do you know? The more I think about it the more I would welcome it. It would have to have a terrible script and awful actors. Grin

I vote Nicholas Cage for Snape, Madonna as McGonagle. David Hasslehoff as Dumbledore, Each of the Baldwin brothers could play the Defence against the Dark Arts teachers, Steven Segal could be Voldermort and obviously Charlie Sheen as Sirius Black.
We need a crowdfund. 🥕

I really want to see this now. It sounds amazing.

Dwayne The Rock Johnson as Hagrid.
Eddie Murphy (in one of his Norbit drag get ups) as Umbridge.

What roles are we giving Sylvester Stallone, Mark Wahlberg and Adam Sandler?
