Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint as Harry, Hermione, and Ron are examples of some of the best child actor casting ever in Hollywood. Yes, Warner Bros. Discovery officially announced on April 12 that a new Max Original is in the works, rebooting the Harry Potter franchise.

This silly idea doesn't have a chance in Hogwarts of getting off the ground. I'm surprised that J.K. Rowling went along with it.

Hopefully they recast all the straight white people so it'll be as successful as Snow White.

Snape was described in the books as pale, sallow, with long, stringy, hair. So now he’s a black guy?

Just come out and say it to save a lot of disappointment on the part of aspiring actors. Neither white nor straight actors need apply.

When the U.S. government first rolled out forgivable loans to small businesses in early April under the Paycheck Protection Program, loan officers at Bank of the West in Grapevine, Texas worked nights and weekends to process a tsunami of applications. But since those first few frantic weeks, demand has “just dried up,” said bank president Cindy Blankenship. On May 15 the bank stopped taking applications for PPP loans.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Tuesday that he may issue a "shelter in place" order for the city within the next two days. "We are all deeply concerned," he said at a news conference, adding that it "is quite clear this is a fast-growing crisis." "Even though a decision has not been made by the city or the state, I think that all New Yorkers should be prepared right now for the possibility of a shelter-in-place order," he said.

Why is it so hot? Partly, it’s just the luck of the weather. The jet stream – the west-to-east winds that play a big role in determining Europe’s weather – has been further north than usual for about two months. A stationary high-pressure weather system has left the UK and much of continental Europe sweltering. Iceland, by contrast, has been hit with clouds and storms that would normally come further south. “The current hot and dry spell in the UK is partly due a combination of North Atlantic ocean temperatures, climate change and the weather,” said Len Shaffrey, a professor of climate science at the University of Reading.
PA Democrats: Our Bill Would Create A Gun Registry In The State 7 replies

We all saw the rumblings of this for years. Democrats want to destroy the Second Amendment, create gun registries, and eventually confiscate firearms. It won’t happen in a couple of years, of course. This is the long game. Emboldened by their state-level victories in Vermont and Florida, in which the anti-gun Left was able to increase the age to purchase all firearms to 21. In Vermont, they even got Republican (and at the time pro-NRA) Gov. Phil Scott to sign off on magazine limits.

Former presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has sparked fresh facelift rumors after she was spotted sporting an enviably-taut visage. The former president and secretary of state stepped out in New York City on Wednesday night after eating at Carota in the city's West Village. Hillary, 77, looked taut faced and wrinkle free in the new pictures of the two, while Bill looked his 78 years. Bystanders cheered as they left the eatery. Her new look comes after speculation that she went under the knife before beginning her campaign for the 2016 presidency. Journalist Edward Klein wrote in his book 'Unlikeable: The Problem with Hillary', that husband Bill had 'wanted her

Michelle Obama is complaining again, and this time it’s about how “expensive” it was living in the White House while her husband was president. The 61-year-old former first lady discussed her woes during an appearance this week on “The Diary of a CEO” podcast. “How do you raise kids in the White House? It’s dangerous,” Obama said. “As the first black potential president, we knew there would be death threats … how would we afford it? Because it’s expensive to live in the White House, as many people don’t know.” “I mean, much is not covered,” she continued. “You’re paying for every food, every bit of food that you eat, you know,

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson slammed "relentless attacks" on judges, adding that they are "designed to intimidate." Jackson didn't mention President Trump by name in her comments Thursday, but said she was addressing “the elephant in the room,” likely referring to calls for impeachment of judges by him and others amid blocks on Trump's policies, Politico reported. “The attacks are not random. They seem designed to intimidate those of us who serve in this critical capacity,” Jackson said at a judges’ conference in Puerto Rico. “The threats and harassment are attacks on our democracy, on our system of government.

Former President Biden and Jill Biden are sitting down for their first interview together since leaving the White House, appearing next week on “The View.” The couple is poised to join the ABC daytime talk show next Thursday to “discuss life after [Biden’s] presidency, his legacy, Democrats’ election losses, and the current political landscape,” the network said in a Thursday statement. Biden has been slowly stepping back into the spotlight since exiting the White House following former Vice President Kamala Harris’s loss to President Trump in November. Last month, Biden delivered his first public address after leaving office at a conference in Chicago.

On Wednesday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “On Balance,” Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) argued that President Donald Trump “continued to close the border,” after President Joe Biden “used his extraordinary powers, emergency powers to close down the border and the drop in border crossings started with President Biden, dramatically.” Host Leland Vittert said that during NewsNation’s town hall earlier in the evening, “the border almost didn’t come up because it is something that Donald Trump has solved that Joe Biden said he couldn’t do without legislation, Donald Trump did. Has that been a place that the Democrats are facing some real weakness and vulnerability?”

As you know, it’s very difficult to be a minority in the modern United States of America. The U.S. is widely known for being among the most hostile countries in the world for anyone who is not white, for gay people, for trans people, for religious minorities, and for all women. Except it’s not because that’s the opposite of the truth. It is breathtaking how American citizens who enjoy the highest standard of living and the most legal freedom in the world believe they are living in an oppressive authoritarian regime. And they really do seem to believe it. Modern feminists get dolled up in Handmaid’s Tale costumes to protest the

Several cities across Italy, Portugal, and Spain are preparing for protests on June aimed at pushing back against the effects of mass tourism, despite local economies being so reliant on foreign money coming into their cities. Organizers say the demonstrations will focus on issues such as housing shortages, environmental damage, and strained public infrastructure in areas overwhelmed by visitor traffic, according to Travel and Tour World. The movement is being coordinated by the Southern Europe Network Against Touristification, which includes activists from Venice, Lisbon, Palermo, Barcelona, and the Canary Islands. Roughly 120 representatives met in Barcelona recently to finalize the protest plans, hoping to pressure

The depraved deviant who allegedly raped a corpse on a Manhattan subway train for 30 minutes is an illegal immigrant who crossed into the US from Mexico at least five times before finally getting locked up over the sick act, The Post has exclusively learned. Felix Rojas, 44, unlawfully crossed the US-Mexico border “on several occasions” in the late 1990s before being caught by Border Patrol agents and voluntarily turning back, an ICE spokesperson revealed. But Rojas apparently crossed the border at least one more time and remained undetected by immigration authorities until NYPD cops arrested him Sunday night in connection to the shocking defilement of 37-year-old family man Jorge Gonzalez,

Canada held elections on Tuesday, and in a stunning development, Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party completed the comeback. While the conservatives did make gains compared to the last decade, left-winger Mark Carney will remain prime minister, and the bill is about to come due. After suffering under years of Trudeau's disastrous leadership, Canadians had a chance to change course. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, who was the odds-on favorite to win the election just a few months ago, had promised to lift his nation out of its decline, promoting personal and economic freedom. The choice should have been clear. Instead, the voters of Canada decided that what they needed

A teacher in Maine repeatedly called for the killing of President Trump and his supporters on social media. She admitted her Superintendent “will have to fire me” over the call to violence. JoAnna St. Germain, an English teacher at Waterville Senior High School, took to Facebook to ask the Secret Service to “take out” the president. “The Secret Service has the perfect opportunity, if they choose to step up and take it,” she wrote. “You are the ones with power. Coordinate. Take out every single person who supports Trump’s illegal, immoral, unconstitutional acts. Look at the sycophants and give them what they’re asking for.

John Fetterman’s camera-thirsty wife has done him dirty. New York Magazine published a hit piece on the Pennsylvania senator Friday, airing grievances from his staffers who are concerned about his mental health, his views on the Israel-Gaza War. The piece also shed light on Fetterman’s relationship with his left-wing wife, Gisele, who secretly communicated with his staff and made a political disagreement into a full-blown argument. According to the outlet, Gisele visited her husband’s senate office in November 2023, weeks after Hamas attacked Israel, and got into a heated debate about the burgeoning war and her husband’s support for the Israeli state. Gisele also went behind her husband’s back,
