Harry Potter has a marred reputation.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A Harry Potter extra unveils shocking details of filming the renowned movies. Beginning with the adaptation of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in 2001, the Harry Potter franchise remains one of the most successful to date. The adapted franchise even spawned a prequel spinoff with the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them movies, which told the story of one of Harry’s wizard predecessors.
A former Harry Potter extra reveals the harsh working conditions she and other child background actors underwent. According to Samantha Clinch on TikTok, she and other child actors were expected to work 12-hour days that began at 5:30 a.m. Watch her video below: Whereas lead actor Daniel Radcliffe got paid $11 million for his work in Goblet of Fire, Clinch claims that she received a rate of £35 per day or the equivalent of $42 per day. The former child actor proceeds to question whether this was even legal. Clinch was later recast as Eloise Midgen, where she saw a doubling of her daily rates.
Harry Potter’s Legacy Has Been Marred In Recent Years While background actors never expect compensation close to that of the leads, there are jarring revelations about these Harry Potter salaries. As Clinch explains, the daily rates equate to just $3.52 per hour, well under the United States minimum wage and the UK minimum wages in the early 2000s. Furthermore, a 12-hour day is a huge expectation for child actors.
The treatment of background actors is just one piece of the puzzle in the marring of Harry Potter’s reputation over recent years. Several years ago, Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling came out with bigoted statements regarding transgender people that became controversial, ruining the image of the beloved childhood series. Rowling has only worsened issues, as she has doubled down on her statements and continuously spewed hateful rhetoric surrounding transgender people.
