Several trans rights activists have started a boycott of the upcoming Harry Potter TV series which is to air on HBO Max with new comedians.
The British writer, who got wind of this movement, decided to taunt the participants on Twitter.
“Terrible news, which I feel I must share with you. Activists are trying to organize another boycott of my work, this time once morest the Harry Potter TV series. Since a warned person is worth two, I took my precautions by accumulating a large quantity of champagne, “chirped JK Rowling.
Dreadful news, which I feel duty bound to share. Activists in my mentions are trying to organise yet another boycott of my work, this time of the Harry Potter TV show. As forewarned is forearmed, I’ve taken the precaution of laying in a large stock of champagne.
