.HarryPotterFilm alum HarryMelling rebukes JKRowlings controversial transgender remarks
“It’s horrendous, a load of bollocks. I think she has been hounded,” Bonham Carter told the outlet. “It’s been taken to the extreme, the judgmentalism of people. She’s allowed her opinion, particularly if she’s suffered abuse.”
“Everybody carries their own history of trauma and forms their opinions from that trauma and you have to respect where people come from and their pain,” Bonham Carter said. “You don’t all have to agree on everything — that would be insane and boring. She’s not meaning it aggressively, she’s just saying something out of her own experience.”
The actress felt that the strong backlash to the author’s comments came from a place of jealousy from Rowling’s critics. “If she hadn’t been the most phenomenal success, the reaction wouldn’t be so great,” she said. “So I think there’s a lot of envy unfortunately and the need to tear people down that motors a lot of this canceling. And schadenfreude.”
When asked if her co-stars were “ungrateful,” Bonham Carter said, “I won’t say that. Personally I feel they should let her have her opinions, but I think they’re very aware of protecting their own fan base and their generation. It’s hard. One thing with the fame game is that there’s an etiquette that comes with it; I don’t agree with talking about other famous people.”
