previously called Steve Martin “horrid” and “incredibly unfunny,” she defended J.K. Rowling for her controversial remarks about transgender people, and she alleged that Arnold Schwarzenegger was “quite rude” and “deliberately farted” in her face. Jason Isaacs, 60, who starred as Lucius Malfoy in the “Potter” franchise, opened up about the young cast in an interview with The Post in February.
“It was always strange going back to the films, where they were a couple years older than the last time I saw them, and I would treat them how they had been previously. So, treating a 14-year-old like a 12-year-old wasn’t great,” he said. “And, when they were 18, and we treated them like they still weren’t allowed to smoke or drink — and, they were doing both at an industrial pace — that was odd.”“What’s odd is when people say to me, ‘Is it strange, them growing up?’ It would be extremely strange if I met them and they were still 12! I saw Rupert recently, and they looked incredibly happy,” Isaacs went on, referring to Grint, 35, who welcomed daughter Wednesday in 2020 with his longtime partner, actress Georgia Groome, 32.
“I speak to Tom all the time; he doesn’t have kids yet. I know Dan is a dad,” said Isaacs, referring to Tom Felton and Daniel Radcliffe.“They’re all men and women, and very accomplished in whatever field they are, and it’s always lovely to see them.” It was recently announced that a “Harry Potter” TV show is in development with Max. James and Oliver Phelps, 38, who played Fred and George Weasley, told The Post in July that they would be game to return — if the show asked them.
