A source close to JK Rowling says the author won't be bothered that the actor playing Severus Snape in the new Harry Potter series has signed a letter demanding industry action on trans rights

You can search the document and find out exactly which Harry Potter cast members have signed. So far, Emma Watson, Eddie Redmayne, Katie Leung have added their names. The actor Paapa Essiedu has also signed the actor even though he’s been cast as Severus Snape in JK Rowling’s new Harry Potter TV remake?

Several Harry Potter stars including Eddie Redmayne appear to have taken a swipe at JK Rowling by signing an open letter expressing “solidarity” with transgender people.It comes after the children’s author backed a controversial Supreme Court ruling earlier this month which declared that trans females are not women.
