Well, no, this isn’t a trailer for the teevee adaptation. It’s an Artificial Intelligence generated fan parody of sexploitation films, borderline pornographic movie trailers that are nothing but cleavage and swarthy men, and, yes, the Potter film franchise.
As funny as that may (or may not be) to some, the ‘All Women Cast!’ parody film short does raise the question of how much Rowling’s feminist beliefs will be fore-staged and highlighted in this new version of the Hogwarts Saga. Imagine if, a la Enid Blyton’s Malory Towers, the series were really really abut ‘Harriet Potter,’ a true gothic heroine?
