J.K. Rowling has made it clear that she will never be able to forgive Daniel Radcliffe or Emma Watson.
The ‘Harry Potter’ series, written by the 58-year-old Rowling, has sold millions of copies worldwide.
Moreover, it has developed into one of the most lucrative film franchises ever.
There has been a lot of controversy surrounding the series in recent years due to the author’s views on s3x and gender.
In a recent statement, Rowling said she would never forgive two of film’s greatest artists.
When Rowling shared an opinion about “those who MENSTRUATE” in 2020, it all started. She seemed annoyed that the word “women” was left out.
“Those who MENSTRUATE” is what the author would tweet.
“Those people have probably dated in the past. I need someone to help me. Wumben?
Wimpund? Woomud?
“If the g** isn’t real, there’s no same-s** attraction,” Rowling said, refusing to change her mind in the face of widespread outrage. The lived reality of women all over the world is erased if the s**t isn’t real.
“I know and adore trans individuals, but the ability of many people to have meaningful conversations about their lives is lost when the concept of s**t is removed. Speaking the truth is not hate.
In 2022, Rowling will publish “The Ink Black Heart” under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith.
This murder thriller centers on Edie Ledwell, a YouTuber who created a cartoon that drew criticism for being transphobic, ableist, and racist.
“Just finished reading ‘The Ink Black Heart,'” tweeted one user in response to Rowling’s criticism of the new book on X, formerly Twitter. What do I say to that? Extremely ableist and transphobic. It’s poorly worded. Too wordy. Unbearably long. – Worst series yet.
Another said: “J.K. Rowling is a perfect example of how achieving great money takes the humanity that led to success.
“Imagine writing a whole sad book about parties because trans-Twitter was mean to you after you were mean to them.”
A number of Harry Potter celebrities have also expressed their disapproval of Rowling’s ideology.
Chris Rankin, who plays Percy Weasley, told the Eastern Daily Press: “I often raise money for the Albert Kennedy Trust and work with groups that are LGBTQ+ focused.
“A lot of my family members are members of the community. It plays a significant role in my life and I believe that when I say that, people can infer my loyalty in that regard.”
“It’s important to emphasize that if a trans person says they’re male or female, that’s what they are and that’s how we should treat them,” he continued.
“It’s harmful for them to say otherwise.”
And two of the biggest names in the franchise said the same thing.
In June 2020, Daniel Radcliffe released a statement through The Trevor Project saying he felt compelled to speak out.
It reads: “I understand that some media outlets may try to portray this as a personal dispute between JK Rowling and myself, but that is not the focus at this time, nor is it the point here.
“As someone who has had the privilege of working with and continuing to contribute to The Trevor Project for the past ten years, as well as a human being, I feel obligated to say something at this point, even though Jo is undoubtedly to blame. For the direction my life was taking.
Women who are transgender are women. Any suggestion to the contrary flies in the face of the advice of professional health associations who are far more knowledgeable about the subject than Jo or I, and erases the identity and dignity of transgender people.”
He is “really sorry” that the “Harry Potter” books may have been “tarnished or diminished” for readers, the Woman in Black star continued.
Meanwhile, Emma Watson wrote on social media: “Trans people are who they say they are and deserve to live their lives without being constantly challenged or told they are not who they say they are.”
She followed up her tweet by saying, “I want my trans followers to know that I and many others around the world see, respect, and love you for who you are.”
The Little Women actress is also thought by fans to have been poking fun at Rowling during her 2022 BAFTA speech.
“Another award is here for Emma Watson,” said Rebel Wilson, host of the event, as she introduced the actress to the stage. We all know she’s a witch, even though she identifies as a feminist.
Watson stated, “I’m here for all witches.” Rowling responded to criticism of her views.
This Monday, Rowling tweeted about Cass’s research, an impartial investigation into gender identity services for children and adolescents.
“Some of the terminology in the study is open to misinterpretation and could be used to justify further barriers to care for some trans young people,” said the charity Mermaids, which helps trans, non-binary, and gender-queering children. According to The Guardian.
Rowling, on the other hand, characterized the research as “the most thorough analysis of the medical evidence supporting child transition ever undertaken”.
The author says, “Thousands are complicit, not just health professionals, but celebrity mouthpieces, unquestioning media and cynical corporations.” The author believes that research has shown that “children have been irreversibly affected”.
A Rowling fan said: “I’m just waiting for Dan and Emma to make a very public apology to you… safe in the knowledge that you’ll forgive them…”
However, Rowling is not willing to pardon the two.
Caption: “I’m afraid it’s not safe,” “Celebrities who have joined a movement aimed at undermining women’s hard-fought rights and have used their platforms to encourage underage transitioners may spare themselves an excuse for traumatized transitioners and vulnerable women. Dependent on single-s*x spaces.”
Subsequently, supporters supported Radcliffe and Watson. One X user wrote: “Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe don’t need forgiveness for being compassionate human beings and they didn’t offer you an apology.”
“What do Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe Rowling have to apologize for?” another commenter asks.
She is the stepmother; they appeared in movies based on her books when they were young.
There is some really weird feudal s***.

In conclusion, the ongoing rift between J.K. Rowling and her two most prominent *Harry Potter* stars, Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson, has sparked a deeply polarized debate. Rowling’s controversial views on gender and s*x have clearly created a rift between her and the actors who once brought her characters to life.
Radcliffe and Watson have publicly expressed their support for the transgender community, stating that transgender women are women and calling for respect and dignity for all individuals regardless of gender identity. This put them at odds with Rowling, who has refused to back down from her statements about s*x and gender despite widespread criticism.
Rowling’s refusal to forgive Radcliffe and Watson highlights the tension between her personal beliefs and the actions of those who disagree with her. While Rowling remains steadfast in her views, many fans and celebrities have voiced their support for the actors, stressing that compassion and inclusiveness should come before rigid ideological stances. The actors made it clear that their advocacy for transgender rights is about standing up for what they believe is right, and not about a personal conflict with the author.
At the heart of this dispute is a larger societal debate about gender, identity, and the limits of free speech. While some see Rowling as a defender of women’s rights, others see her statements as harmful and exclusionary to the transgender community. Radcliffe and Watson’s stance has drawn praise from those who believe in equality and respect for all people regardless of gender identity.
Ultimately, this ongoing dispute serves as a reminder of how complicated the relationships of public figures can become when their personal beliefs collide with evolving societal norms and values. Whether a reconciliation will ever happen remains uncertain, but it’s clear that both sides have made their positions known — and the fallout continues to shape public perception of the legacy of *Harry Potter* and its creators.
