First! That is soo cool! :D Can’t wait to see it! ;)

No way! That is amazing! I absolutely cannot wait to see it!

Ewwww…somebody else playing JKR in a fictionalized (read: sensationalized) version of her life? This is going to be a disaster.

It should be interesting, but I still think they should ask Mrs. Rowling first, for it can be quite offensive.

After all, it’s her decision to whether make her life into a movie or not.

I mean, she’s not even dead yet. Usually they wait until somebody is history before they start rewriting their story to make it more palatable to the least common denominator of the TV-consuming public.

Wow I live in Canada so I think it’s really cool that they’re shooting there. Definitely looking forward to the movie!

I hope they at least let her see it first before putting it out.

mixed feelings about this – i hope they don’t ruin jo’s lifestory.

I read this before leaky had it, step up your game leaky, what’s going on??

Should be good but yeah they should ask jk Rowling first

I’m not sure about this… Does JK Rowling even know about the film?

I really don’t know what to think about this. I loved the documentary the JK Rowling made and I’m not sure how this film will come out. I really feel they should ask her before they make a film about her. I don’t think she will give them permission to do it because she’s very protective of her private life. That is one of things I respect her most for. I think she’s already told the story of her life in the most honest and best way possible.

Not a fan.

Not a fan.

Weird, I live in Victoria, Canada. There is a lot of European-style architecture here, but I didn’t think movie producers would actually use it as a mini-UK.

Anyway, I’m guessing they’ve already asked and been turned down by Rowling. It really does seem strange to make an unwanted fictionalized account of someone’s life, especially when they’re still so young.

Filmshaft.com writes, “Whether or not Rowling, and Hollywood will respond to this project with a big budget, big screen version is yet to be seen. We already know that Rowling has no love for anything “unofficial” relating to her or the Harry Potter series so it’d be reasonable to expect an endorsed project at some time in the near future.” Food for thought… ?
