the people at the top of hbo who like money

[cgoblin]

hope it magikarp flops

[spellmanian]

Oh boy

It's interesting that they aren't asked to act in the self tapes, only read a short story for 30 seconds and talk about themselves. Is that typical for casting child actors?

Can we get a Filipino Harry?

[trynabme]

anyone but a white child will cause a ruckus!

before the films i was so sure Harry was supposed to be Asian so i fully support this.

[kjesta]

when i was a kid i always pictured mcgonnagall as asian and in her late 30s. why? god knows, but that was MY minerva. (no offense to maggie smith, who is a treasure.)

[2_on]

so harry could be a girl?

[slaughtermatic]

he wont be.

[fnowae]

I want a black trans non binary hermione

[smilla_sini]

Only if they have no access to internet and bodyguards 24/7

There should be many protective measures taken for whoever might be cast in this tbh, I already feel bad for these children.
