“It’s really sad. I think J.K. Rowling is amazing. I haven’t had to confront [the backlash] myself, but I would support her in that, I think, if it came to it.”What Other Harry Potter Stars Have Said About J.K. Rowling While many of the reactions to the Harry Potter TV show online were negative in large part due to Rowling's involvement in it, it's important to note that Rowling also has a large number of supporters.
Other supporting actors, including Bonnie Wright , Harry Melling , and Fantastic Beasts star Eddie Redmayne have also either voiced support for the transgender community or spoken out against Rowling. Conversely, stars like Helena Bonham Carter , Ralph Fiennes , and the late Robbie Coltrane all voiced their support for Rowling, taking issue with the backlash against her online.
There are also several Harry Potter stars who have expressed more nuanced views regarding Rowling. Evanna Lynch , previously spoke out in support of the transgender community but has also expressed that Rowling's views aren't as black and white as they are often portrayed. Jason Isaacs , similarly, has expressed that he has "complicated" feelings about Rowling, and, while his views differ from hers in many areas, she's also done a lot of positive charity work.
