Daniel Radcliffe Responds to J.Ok. Rowling’s Latest Transgender Dust-Up

Daniel Radcliffe is not folding to J.K. Rowling‘s ongoing campaign on talking out about transgender points — as an alternative, he is standing pat with the LGBTQ+ neighborhood.

The ‘Harry Potter’ star was requested concerning the saga in a brand new interview with The Atlantic — and he says the entire thing with J.Ok., who created ‘Potter,’ makes him actually unhappy.

He provides, “I do look at the person that I met, the times that we met, and the books that she wrote, and the world that she created, and all of that is to me so deeply empathic.” DR goes on to say that when he pushed back in opposition to J.Ok. a number of years in the past, he felt he wanted to.

You may recall … Dan issued an announcement on the time by way of The Trevor Venture — the place he mentioned trans girls had been girls, interval. That flew within the face of stances J.Ok. has taken.

Daniel continues, “[I]t would have seemed like, I don’t know, immense cowardice to me to not say something. I wanted to try and help people that had been negatively affected by the comments. And to say that if those are Jo’s views, then they are not the views of everybody associated with the ‘Potter’ franchise.”

He even responded to one thing J.Ok. just lately mentioned about him and different ‘Potter’ actors who’ve pushed again in opposition to her — the place she mentioned they may save their apologies on the matter.
