Dumbledore Actor Doesn’t Care About the JK Rowling BACKLASH From Trans Activists

New Albus Dumbledore actor for the upcoming Harry Potter series, John Lithgow, said in a recent interview the backlash towards series creator JK Rowling did not factor into his decision to join the cast.

The veteran actor said his biggest concern was his age given the 8 year commitment to the role and the fact he’s 79 years old. John Lithgow has claimed activist have tried to convince him to walk away from the part and that’s something he’s not interested in doing. He claimed that JK Rowling’s personal opinions don’t matter to him because he’s more concerned with the job at hand.
