But while <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/tag\/hbo\/\">HBO<\/a> has continued to publicly stand behind the author, her support of the reboot has sparked a fresh wave of criticism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On Wednesday, September 2, HBO dropped a lengthier trailer for season one of the show, officially titled <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/tag\/harry-potter\/\">Harry Potter<\/a> and the Philosopher\u2019s Stone. It introduces the brand new cast taking over the roles formerly portrayed in the 2000s movie series.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s been plenty of debate about how similar the series looks to the original films, but one person who is clearly impressed is <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/tag\/jk-rowling\/\">Rowling<\/a>. The author shared the teaser on X shortly after it was released, alongside heart, owl and lightning emojis.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Harry Potter and the Philosopher&#039;s Stone | Official Teaser Trailer | HBO Max\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1RnyZgfN-JY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s not the first time Rowling has publicly backed the <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/tag\/harry-potter\/\">Harry Potter<\/a> adaptation. As the executive producer and rights owner, she\u2019s been working alongside the creative team. Last year, she wrote on X that she\u2019d read the first two episodes and <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/04\/01\/this-is-how-j-k-rowling-really-feels-about-hbos-brand-new-harry-potter-reboot\/\">described it as \u201cso, so, so good\u201d<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And it looks like the support goes both ways, as HBO has made no attempt to distance itself from the author and her views. Just past the 50-second mark in the trailer, text across the screen reads, \u201cBased on the beloved books by J. K. Rowling.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>JK Rowling\u2019s involvement continues to spark controversy&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her support comes amid a fresh wave of backlash as former Harry Potter fans call on others to boycott the series. It\u2019s no secret that Rowling has become an increasingly controversial figure due to her views on sex and gender.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7644\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7644\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7644\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/nh.jpg\" alt=\"JK Rowling\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/nh.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/nh-1020x1024.jpg 1020w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/nh-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/nh-768x771.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7644\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: X\/JK Rowling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since 2020, the author has repeatedly spoken out about transgender issues and has used some of <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/04\/01\/how-much-money-will-jk-rowling-make-from-hbos-new-harry-potter-tv-show-its-pretty-jarring\/\">her fortune<\/a> to provide financial and legal support for individuals and groups challenging trans-inclusive spaces, policies and workplace guidelines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite denying being transphobic, Rowling\u2019s words and actions have been widely condemned by <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/tag\/lgbtq\/\">LGBTQ+<\/a> rights groups as anti trans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When a number of the <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/08\/27\/where-daniel-radcliffe-stands-on-jk-rowling-harry-potter\/\">Harry Potter film cast members spoke<\/a> in support of trans rights after Rowling\u2019s tweets on gender identity in 2020, she responded by referring to Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson as \u201ccelebs who cosied up to a movement intent on eroding women\u2019s hard-won rights.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These issues have continued to follow the new Harry Potter adaptation, and after she shared the latest trailer, several used the replies to reiterate that they won\u2019t be watching.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou\u2019re entitled to say what you want.

HP fans are complaining that everything is virtually the same.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDo not give your money to a soulless cash grab of a washed franchise where they didn&#8217;t even bother to change things up.

If it\u2019s dark, disturbing or dominating Netflix, Daisy is probably already writing about it.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/DaisyWebb77"],"jobTitle":"Editor at Film Shrine","url":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/author\/daisythetab-com\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/filmshrine.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/09\/03\/jk-rowling-backs-hbo-harry-potter-teaser-trailer-as-people-vow-to-boycott-show\/","smart_links":{"inbound":0,"outbound":0},"traffic_boost_suggestions_count":0,"meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"JK Rowling makes her feelings on HBO\u2019s Harry Potter clear as people vow to boycott show","url":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/09\/03\/jk-rowling-backs-hbo-harry-potter-teaser-trailer-as-people-vow-to-boycott-show\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/09\/03\/jk-rowling-backs-hbo-harry-potter-teaser-trailer-as-people-vow-to-boycott-show\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Daisys-featured-images-18-150x150.jpg","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Daisys-featured-images-18.jpg"},"articleSection":"News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Daisy Phillipson"}],"creator":["Daisy Phillipson"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Film Shrine","logo":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/04\/cropped-The-Tab_Film-Shrine_Favicon.png"},"keywords":["harry potter","hbo","jk rowling","lgbtq+","tv"],"dateCreated":"2026-09-03T12:53:57Z","datePublished":"2026-09-03T12:53:57Z","dateModified":"2026-09-03T12:53:57Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"wp-parsely-metadata\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"JK Rowling makes her feelings on HBO\\u2019s Harry Potter clear as people vow to boycott show\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/thetab.com\\\/filmshrine\\\/2026\\\/09\\\/03\\\/jk-rowling-backs-hbo-harry-potter-teaser-trailer-as-people-vow-to-boycott-show\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/thetab.com\\\/filmshrine\\\/2026\\\/09\\\/03\\\/jk-rowling-backs-hbo-harry-potter-teaser-trailer-as-people-vow-to-boycott-show\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/09\\\/Daisys-featured-images-18-150x150.jpg\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/09\\\/Daisys-featured-images-18.jpg\"},\"articleSection\":\"News\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Daisy Phillipson\"}],\"creator\":[\"Daisy Phillipson\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"Film Shrine\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/04\\\/cropped-The-Tab_Film-Shrine_Favicon.png\"},\"keywords\":[\"harry potter\",\"hbo\",\"jk rowling\",\"lgbtq+\",\"tv\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2026-09-03T12:53:57Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2026-09-03T12:53:57Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2026-09-03T12:53:57Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/filmshrine.com\/p.js"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8507","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8507"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8507\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8514,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8507\/revisions\/8514"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8507"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8507"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8507"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=8507"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
