JK Rowling’s tweet about Alan Rickman makes Harry Potter fans sob: ‘I saw him in his long black wig, my eyes filled with tears ’
Hindustan TimesIt has been years since the death of beloved English actor Alan Rickman but fans all over the world still miss him dearly. On Wednesday, Harry Potter author JK Rowling shared an emotional tweet about Alan and how she teared up thinking about him while they were rehearsing for the stage play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Rowling was replying to a fan’s tweet about missing Snape on a re-watch of Harry Potter and the Deathy Hallows Part 2. Thank you @jk_rowling for this unique character and for convincing Alan Rickman to portray him - we had the perfect Severus Snape,” the fan’s tweet read. At the dress rehearsal I saw him in his long black wig & my eyes filled with tears because, for a split second, my irrational heart believed when Snape turned round, I’d see Alan.” In the play, at one point, the lead characters go back in time where they meet Severus Snape again.
