• “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling is reportedly in talks with Warner Bros. Discovery to create a seven-season series based on her books – and trans activists are already planning their boycotts.
• No deal has yet been reached, but according to a report from the U.K. publication Metro, the proposed series would air on HBO Max and would dedicate one season to each of the seven books — and Rowling would be involved in the process, likely as a producer.
• But critics of Rowling’s personal views on sex and gender — namely that biological sex has value and that biological females should be allowed protected spaces where biological males regardless of their gender identities are not allowed — have already promised to avoid the series altogether.
