J.K. Rowling is finally sharing what went into her decision to skip the “Harry Potter” anniversary reunion that aired on HBO Max, but insists it had nothing to do with her comments that many interpreted as transphobic.
“I wasn’t actually (excluded)” from the reunion, the 57-year-old author said on Virgin Radio UK’s “The Graham Norton Radio Show with Waitrose.”
While Rowling said she “was asked to be on that,” she opted against taking part in the special — which featured interviews with, among others, stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint.
