Watch the trailer for the series 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone' TV directors Ally Pankiw ("Black Mirror") and Kate Herron ("Loki") stated that they denied work on the "Harry Potter" series because of what they classify as "transphobia" by the author of the character's books, J. K. Rowling. Also known as "The Great", Pankiw published this Thursday (13), on her Instagram profile, a conversation she had in April in which someone asked her if she would accept working on the wizard's series. According to "Variety" magazine, he was an agent of the director. “No way,” she appears to respond (in a slightly more energetic way). “It’s that simple to say no to funding transphobia,” he wrote in the publication. Herron, who also directed episodes of "Sex education" and "Margô está em apuros", commented in support of his colleague. "Respect and love to you, Ally. I was asked twice and I had to explain that my answer will never change from no."
