Johnny Flynn, set to take on the role of Lucius Malfoy in HBO’s #HarryPotter series, discusses criticism around author J.K. Rowling’s anti-trans stance, and “the welcoming environment” on set. “Obviously, there's quite a lot of stuff around Jo [J.K.] Rowling. I suppose that's been quite interesting to navigate, the conversations there — but all important conversations to have,” Flynn told @THR. “The people working on this are really, really great and create a really special atmosphere, [like] Francesca [Gardiner] the showrunner, and Mark Mylod and various directors. There's such care. I'm basically not in the first book. Lucius is hardly in book one at all, but I'm in the first series. So it's quite a thing to go do a day and then have a month or so [off] and come back and everybody's got these really tight relationships. But it's such a welcoming environment.” 🔗: hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…
