And this is your reminder that this series is being made to enrich known transphobe JK Rowling and take away money from the original cast members who stood up to her about her hate. Any money she gets from this series literally goes to lobbying against trans rights in the UK (see the recent court decision she funded, as well as her setting up an independent fund for further cases).
If you give any money to watch this series you cannot pretend to support trans rights!
Disclaimer: I have t read the article so I’m speculating a bit.
If the new series is a retread of the existing movies, instead of watching the movies, people will watch the hbo series. This would stop royalties or whatever the cut actors get from the movies and redirect to the new cast.

Money goes to the shitbag. That makes sense.
But can you prove this is being made to take money from the original cast? How does that even work?
