- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

I don't know how actors contracts etc. work, so I am genuinely curious. Is refusing not an option for them? Surely most of these actors already have enough money...
It would be like walking out during a billion $ project that depends on you as a freelancer.
In a VERY small industry where everyone knows everyone, and there are thousands of applicants literally willing to suck dick to get hired.
It would also have penalties for breaking the contract which could be very high, plus if you tank a major production without good reason your career is probably over
Although here's hoping Nick Frost does the right thing.
Can you elaborate?
Are you referring to him playing Hagrid?
Correct.
He's already signed onto the role fully knowing who JK is. I don't think he's going to suddenly come around.
They'd get sued most likely
