Dear, @HBO@harrypotter@jk_rowling
It’s not too late to make Paapa Essiedu, Kingsley Shacklebolt and hire Adam Driver as Severus Snape
Sincerely, Every Harry Potter Fan.
This might be a desperate ploy, but I don’t care.
Snape has always been a Caucasian. He was in the books, the plays, the picture books, and even Rowlings drawings. There is absolutely no reason to take a detour now for a character of this magnitude. Harry Potter is already “diverse” there is no need to make unnecessary changes now in my opinion. I would be fine with any other teacher or even Hagrid being recast as a different ethnicity, but Snape should be off limits.
I am asking the following creators to start or continue speaking out on this. Together we can at least make our voices heard. We all differ in personal beliefs, but I think we can come together on this. Some of you might call me an idiot and that’s fine, whatever. I just want Harry Potter to be the best it can be.

I was working on a Star Wars video to launch my channel, but I am going to pivot to this. Harry Potter is one of my favorite franchises of all time and I want to see the faithful adaptation we were promised.
Paapa Essiedu is not Severus Snape. @jk_rowling knows it. @HBO knows it. Yet, they ignore it. Very disappointing. Alan Rickman was the perfect Snape, and Adam Driver would have been perfect for the role. What a complete 180. #HarryPotter

In theaters June 12, 2026
Kathleen Kennedy is leaving @Lucasfilm at the end of 2025 but the damage is already done. Her replacement would have to retcon a lot and remake the sequels to have a chance to bring Star Wars back.
‘THE GORGE’ starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller becomes Apple TV+’s biggest launch for a movie ever, surpassing ‘WOLFS’ starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt.
Reverence for the past, yet hope for the future.
