        It’s nothing to do with her. WB made the decision because revenue from the original films has slowed. This will reinvigorate the whole franchise.

      Don’t forget Richard Harris, Kenneth Branagh, Jason Isaacs, Alan Rickman, and Gary Fucking Oldman.

    is this going to be the ROP equivalent of AMAZON.
