Director Konstantin Bogomolov called criticism of J.K. Rowling an outrage This is reported by the radio station “Moscow speaking”.
Bogomolov called Rowling's persecution an outrage. “This is a disaster, just write it that way,” the director commented on the criticism of the writer.
Earlier it became known that the actors and creators of the first Harry Potter film and the Sorcerer's Stone will be reunited in a special issue dedicated to 20 anniversary since the release of the tape. The anniversary of the painting will be celebrated without the creator of a series of books about a wizard boy. Fans of the franchise associate this with its controversial words in 2020 regarding transgender people, after which Rowling was accused of transphobia.
On February 10, Novaya Gazeta published Bogomolov's manifesto. In it, he criticized Europeans and Americans who self-organize on social networks to fight artists and “humble researchers” who do not support their value system. The director expressed dissatisfaction with the values of the New Ethical Reich in the West, feminism and LGBT activists.
