J.K. Rowling on the Future of Harry Potter

By Dianna Dilworth 

Author J.K. Rowling may have retired from writing Harry Potter books, but don’t count it out entirely in the future.

In an interview on TODAY this week, Rowling hinted that she could possibly return to the series one day if the mood struck her.

“I’m afraid I haven’t been writing the next Harry Potter. I have always said never say … well, not never say never,” she said in the interview. “I’ve always said I’m not going to say I definitely won’t because, because I don’t see why I should say that. You know, it’s my world and I might choose to step back into it. And in a way, I am stepping back into it.”

In the meantime, she is working on the script for “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.”
