Dafür wird er von Bild & Co angegriffen - das zeigt, wo Springer steht.

Some fans are running wild about the #harrypotter reboot. There´s nothing out yet. So may they could simply wait and see Paapa Essiedu in his role as Snape before attacking him like hell. Essiedu has an theatre background like Alan after all.
