David Tennant is standing up against Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling. In a report from The Guardian, Tennant, who starred in 2005’s “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,” shared his thoughts about Rowling while answering questions about the author asked by a group of neurodivergent individuals on ITV’s “The Assembly.

David Tennant says he wishes Harry Potter author J.K.Rowling “no ill will”, but there has been “demonization” of the trans community and that he hopes that we “can all as a society just let people be.”
