![J.K. Rowling 2012 Interview - Harry Potter: Beyond the Page [High Res]](/img/n.gif)
I don't care what people say about her, I'll always love and admire this woman as an artist. She was the reason I wanted to be an author when I was a young kid, and inspired me to start writing my own stories. Not to mention Harry Potter got me through one of the darkest times of my life.
Oh absolutely, Hitler also was a decent painter.
❤❤❤
Me too
Same! Personally, I think she's brilliant. Still do.
The people who criticize her are disturbed individuals who have given nothing to the world but their frustrations. They are just upset chickens
I remember in year 6 sitting on the floor of the classroom and the teacher reading a few pages of Harry Potter at the end of each day.
Same! We’re getting old dude :D
Haha she is super excited about 30k copies. She had no idea how big it would become. One of the biggest franchises on earth
Actually the biggest !! I was still surprised
So rare to see such an early interview from a writer soon to be famous.
"It sold 30,000 copies which was phenomenal" - hahaha!
lolol
Now she has sold about 500 million. Haha.
@@nathanpilgrim-howe3238600M now
30k is crazy in publishing!
It’s crazy to think how much joy and hope she brought to the world, all because of an idea that came to her one day (and that she had the talent to write of course)
Yup, and that day was the day she had just finished watching the film "Troll", obviously.
True! There is not only Hope but amazing wisdom and its totally actual
The story chooses the author miss Rowling... it's not always clear why
While reading the books I had often felt that this world is real and hidden from us and somehow JK Rowling came to know about it and must have interviewed the real Harry Potter to write about him. I kind of still believe the same😜
You need to get a grip on reality.
@@ShivamSingh-qz3kh you need to have a sense of humor
You need to know the occult but will forever regret you did. Especially in HP (Houses of Parliament)
Me too
@@ShivamSingh-qz3kh so sad you don't have any imagination isn't it?
i remember reading the harry potter books over and over again in one of the most difficult times in my life, and I think her books are a great part of what kept my sanity together... this video is truely a treasure! thank you!
Same
Me too
I was eight years old when I received the Philosopher’s Stone, it was July 1997, my birthday, my grandmother bought it for me, and I was hooked, twenty seven years later and I myself am writing a fantasy series, JK Rowling inspired me along with CS Lewis
whats the progress on your fantasy series i would love to know more
You can tell she was super uncomfortable and nervous, I can't truly imagine the pressure she must've been under in later years of writing the series. This woman is such an inspiring example of how you can absolutely change the course of your life if you put your mind into it
She's not that great
@@fdpcompdm you’re correct, she’s fantastic
She has to keep reinventing her space and as long as she keeps that up she'll be fine
IF you’re lucky enough, that is!
@@Sinjinator We create our luck! The types of people who blame others success on luck are the types who often have untapped potential within themselves, and choose to not be proactive about achieving their dreams
She's Lily Potter here :)
Red hair, green eyes..
Wait was lily potter a red head?
@@meesteranonymous8177yup
Funny cause she was asked to play Harry's mother
@@meesteranonymous8177
When Harry looked at Lily in the mirror of Erised:
"She was a very pretty woman. She had dark red hair and her eyes - her eyes are just like mine, Harry thought, edging a little closer to the glass. Bright green - exactly the same shape"
Book 1 chapter 12
This woman is a Godsend long live JK and Harry Potter
Back in the time when she was writing the work of her life. She seems so open in this interview.
Every interview I've seen with her she seems like a nice well meaning person
She will always be a role model and an inspiration for me. I have to add she looks extra beautiful here, I love her long auburn hair. She looks like Lily Potter. Thank you Jo for sharing your incredible mind with the world.
'It would be wild if they were to make a film'
It's crazy to see before everything.
Imagine telling her they're making films and also a theme park.
I'll never understand what she did to have that extraordinary imagination to build a whole new universe in a children's book and the same way attracted to elders. My auntie is 53 and she loves HP Universe lol. Now JK Rowling is one of the most important writers around the world and one of the richest women in the UK. Even JK Rowling still making money with Fantastic Beasts I just can't believe how her name still so relevant!
Read Mastery by Robert Greene
@INFJTony truee...❤️
Yea. I would love to create and own something that could become a worldwide phenomenon too
It isn't a children's book, dumbass. She lite ally says this at the beginning of the video, idiot.
2:36 wow!
Hermione: "It's the forest of Dean. I came here once with my mum and dad. Years ago"
So crazy to see a world before Harry Potter. "Everyone will know his name" life imitating art.
I don’t care what people say about J.K. Rowling. I agree with her trans views to be quite honest and am willing to look past some of her other liberal views I disagree with to see who she really is, what she accomplished, her impact on my life, and who she was during the early years.
Her mind has given birth to so much inspiration in my life and was a MAJOR part of my childhood. My childhood was full of happiness and wonder because of her. I’m writing my own books right now hoping to publish just like she did
Así que eres un transfobo de mierda y encima estás orgulloso, ok
This is so neat. "The Haunted School" :D These HP terms like Hogwarts are just so common these days so the fact she had to explain it and refer to it as such is so funny to see in hindsight.
KL haha so true
Crazy that in 1999-2000, a boy aged 9 in Spain will go down with her mum through his town in the Basque coast (Northern Spain) one morning an see her books on a store. My mother saying "They say this books are good", and bought the two first ones to me. Then in a week I had read the first one and the HP and the Philosopher Stone became the first book I ever read in my life and I LOVED IT, initiating my love for reading at the age of 10 in a foreign country with a different language. HP was almost my age as I read so I basically grew with him. I was 19-20 when I read the last book of the series.
Thanks for everything Jo! Love you, and the fact that you defend your political views made me even more loving of you. Truly inspirational.
Por qué hablas como si fuera un gran desconocido si es literalmente el libro mas famoso de todos los tiempos xddd literalmente los libros de HP
se imprimían en españa
It sold 30,000 copies in the UK which is amazing to me!!!
She is so gorgeous I always thought she would be quiet bland in physical features, wow was I wrong. Obviously a brilliant mind.
Seems like a promising young author. I wish her luck!
It already happened. 7 books and 8 blockbuster movies. Search for Harry Potter , u will know wat I mean. And 3 harry potter sagas
@@mariyamatia8726 Oh my God!!! She made it then? That is incredible!
@Tommy Daniels if u r being sarcastic, don't be. Search for the novels read the books and watch the movies. I did countless times. And for the last movie premiere harry potter 7 part 2, they had the biggest movie premiere ever with the world's longest red-carpet and it was live. The potter fan has camped outside for 55 hours or maybe more before the premiere started. Watch it
@@mariyamatia8726 he was joking lmao
@@mariyamatia8726Homie you gotta learn to take a joke
This early JK interview is gold! It seems like a locally conducted, interview in Scotland. So amazing to see this!
Funny to see her not only joining the back of a queue, but also to have no-one recognise her
Love that this is such an early interview. Brilliant!
Read HP as an adult, at the time of release, only because my children were reading them.
Now I was an avid reader as a child, you name an old school children's book and I've likely read it.
I clearly remember reading the first chapter of HP and realising that I was witnessing a phenomena in real time. I knew without doubt the books would become as famous, or more, as TLTWATW for instance, and be read for generations.
Very strange feeling at the time, not often you get to be there at the beginning and also knowing it's the beginning of something big/huge.
She's brilliant! I love her!
She’s fascinating to listen to
“It chose me” just like the wands🥹
She‘s already planned 7 books?? She seems very ambitious I hope she succeeds in her plans :)
I feel your comment is targeted to sarcasm but she's already succeeded in her goals and Harry Potter is now one of the most read books in the world. Lol! This was prolly 22 years ago.
@@mcc2835 :)
@@benhavis2474 😂😂😂😂👏
Same. Hope she gets some recognition
@@tayluvofficial feels like she is gonna make it big someday
Wow. Harry Potter has gone a long way.
The world would have been less without Harry Potter
If it were done right, it COULD make a great film. Wow that is comedy gold how. Incredible woman
It really surprises me that videos posted of her on here (especially her interviews as she was still writing the saga) don't get even a fraction of the views the videos do about the child actors who played (badly for the most part) the characters in the film franchise. It's even more baffling when you think of how many of the actual books were sold.
She has sold almost 500miliion copies 🥴
Honestly I am very disappointed in these actors for being so disloyal to her during all the backlash she received.
I’m disappointed in the media for not giving the authors more credit and elevating them! Do you know how much research and work goes into a novel… well if the first one does well, then you might get an advance. I think she got some money out of this one. 😉 But before that, it’s a gamble and working and hoping!
exactly! they would be nowhere without her. most of them are quite average. not even highly skilled in their crafts. books > movies.
É pq foram postados a pouco tempo
You poor thing it's ok ,to be scared I would be too. If something would be something phenomenal. And it's can be a good thing,and I know I would be too honestly. I'm lover of writing too. Thank you for your inspiration.
"You're not going to make much money" ... *HMMMMMM*
The Agent and JK must joke still to this day about it haha
I love this intelligent and beautiful woman ❤❤
I wish I could go back in late 90s
Me too, better times and better eorld
Extremely attractive woman.
She looks so much happier now. ^-^
and so much more smug...
@@stellaantoniadou4279 says the trans activist
@@meesteranonymous8177 I'm not a trans activist, I don't know where that came from. Maybe you could call me an ally? I still love the Harry Potter universe and the books and everything about it. I separate the art from the artist. I do find her views on trans rights horrible though. And I do think she has become smug from the way she replies to the world's reactions to her sayings. She doesn't seem to care at all. I literally read somewhere that she said "Im too rich to care about what people say". Like, seriously!? And that kinda pisses me off. I do like watching old interviews of her though, like this one. And it pisses me off when some people don't realize that yes I can not agree with her views and still love her books the way I did as a kid. There's always a ton of grey tones between black and white.
@@stellaantoniadou4279 her one specific view on trans is absolutely reasonable, and this coming from someone who hated her feminist crap(and still do)and her trying to please your crowd for years.
Like the saying goes:
"There are no chicks with dicks, only men with tits"
@@meesteranonymous8177 well, we can agree to disagree on that.
JK is the Queen of Scotland she loves Scotland for sure!!!
she lives in Edinburgh and married a Scottish doctor!!!
30,000 copies?
Well, it probably won't go past that.
Came to this after I watched the Vice video on Harry Potter that basically just paraphrased this entire special with like two interviews thrown in
"remember you're not going to make much money"
omg 😝😝😝😝
Just because she listened to a thought AND acted. Now WE have The Harry Potter series.
30 thousand copies ? Well now its sbout 500 mln.
I saw her interview with wossy ,she is a genuine person and very likeable ,her young people she helpped stabbed her in the back
She is so nice, so inspired mind
“I think if it was done right, it would make a great film” - possibly one of the most accurate predictions in modern times !
Nice handwriting
If anyone has any old Harry Potter books that they don’t want anymore, please contact me.
what a genius where did she come up with this stuff?
So thats why the forest of Dean was in HP 7
I thought it was a video of Charlotte Tillbury interviewing JK Rowling. She looks sooooo much like Charlotte here.
Shes worth 820 mil, thats absolutely insane lol i was there when this all unfolded back in the late 90s. Just crazy
Big in Finland? She’s big all over the world now! I always notice Harry Potter when I travel and am reminded of what a phenomenon it is. Well done JK
Well safe to say she got her wish of becoming big in Holland! 😁
It’s amazing how they’re conducting this interview in the middle of a busy cafe, and no one there is even remotely interested in her because she wasn’t famous yet haha. Just wait a couple years and she’d have been swarmed!
Wand chose the wizard
It’s true that generally you can’t support yourself off a handful of children’s books, but she managed to successfully do that. Harry Potter took the world by absolute storm, it was by far the biggest obsession I’ve seen in my lifetime, it made (and continues to make) a TON of money and got rave reviews and avid fans eagerly awaiting each future book. How many authors can say their children’s books are so successful across such a wide age range that their publisher can justify publishing the books again, unedited, with an adult cover because there’s an army of older readers buying and enjoying the series? She’s a success and a huge inspiration as an author.
Sure she may not be making the best decisions lately whatwith beating a dead horse on Harry’s world, but, ultimately, if the money keeps coming and the readers continue reading, nothing else matters.
Bailey Crawly She did not write ANY of the HP books. She is a fraud, just a face for a book written by a team of authors with a malevolent agenda.
@@kristinelarasebastian7492 Fr Chad Ripperger (Exorcist) with a TH-cam channel says the Books were channelled. He advises people to steer clear !
J.K. is so cool
She is the most talented writer in the world! No one come close to her! Queen of writing!
Stephen King is the King of writing. JK Rowling is the Queen of writing.
Ummm, ever heard of J.R.R.Tolkien? G.R.R.Martin? And others with secret first names, like PN Elrond? They are the best! 😂
@@bsell5175 And why exactly is he a pedo?
@@mattclayer6541 have you read It?
“I love the idea that I may be big in Finland”. Love this! You can tell that Joanne is really fully buried in book 2.
I love her before and after her villain arc, or glow up as they say
She’s always been great
It's interesting hearing about early Hollywood interest then, and now we are well past the entire 8 movie series that has made billions with all the actors becoming stars in their own right.
Love this beauty xox
Amazing interview. Does anyone know the reporter or interviewer? Cheers
Gorgeous woman.
And now extremely rich aswell
There's not much money in kid's books. Not if your JK Rowling!
Wonderful :)
3:28 if he only knew....
what year is this interview - does anyone know?
1997/98
It’s a cold & windy day in Edinburgh so is either late winter or autumn. She says her second book is out (published mid-1998) and she’s writing the third but she hasn’t signed any film rights (WB obtained those in early Oct 1998) so my bet is September 1998. Earlier that year she signed with Scholastic for $100K+ and a month later WB would pay a ‘seven figure sum’. For an author whose second book was hardly out this was all amazing. Within 12 months she went from poor author to millionaire all off the back of just one book.
December 1997

For some reason I thought this woman was scottish
If you have an opinion why can’t you voice it? There are millions of graves dotted around the world that fought and died for that cause.
" If it were done right, I think it could make a great film yeah "
All the films were horrible, bless her heart
@@drakirolopez7859Yeah, no.
Jkr was a different person back then. She knew perfectly well that her story was a traditional fantasy for a child being abused and found himself actually amazing
It is just puzzling to see her trying to get everything and every holes of her stories fixed right now by wildly expanding the worldviews. She is trying to do more than “just selling more books” now.
Beauty
What is the source of this video? Where is it taken from?
I think it might be from her Blue Peter appearance. She refers to the "Smarties book prize recently," so I think this is likely late '97 early '98.
what a great place to write
❤🇧🇩
So is she a natural redhead? I have usually seen her with blonde hair these days.
She’s a natural red head. The publicity department makes them go blonde.
@@garland3688 Thank you for your reply :-). That's a shame, she should embrace her natural red hair!!!
@@ArranVid you’ve seen her lately? She has gone back red.
@@garland3688 Cool 🙂
@@garland3688 I have read most of the Robert Galbraith/JK Rowling Cormoran Strike novels. I haven't read any of the Harry Potter novels, but my sister has. I have seen the Harry Potter movies 🙂. I haven't read the last Cormoran Strike novel, but I have read all the others 🙂.
♥🖍
She is like the Nirvana of literature, i mean, she came from nowhere and became a phenomenom.
Im glad she got her teef fixed.
There is a such thing as “Scottish Blood “
She looked better before plastic surgery
Btw she looks like Hermione in here
Shakespeare added over 1700 words to the english language. It's yet to be determined how many J.K. will offer;)
My favorites are mudblood and pureblood
She invented Muggle for people like you 👍
lol why so jealous 😂
Crumple-Horned Snorkacks 😂
sad that the cafe shes in has burned down now...
Witchcraft at work... coincidence I think not!
The fire was not as bad as first feared and the cafe has now reopened.
She's never gonna make it!😄
Honestly I want her
Not me...
Is she did something to her face
She aged.
@@garland3688 then ok
I think she visited a dentist for sure.
Plus, having so much money and being that popular, you would definitely want to do something about your appearance.
Phenomenal not amazing 😊
Lily Potter
drake
Freemason
she sounded noticeably frantic (at least for me), unsurprisingly from the caffein intake.Next time, ask her if both of you could at least do the interview first before she gulps that mocha cup.
No offence, it also happened to me.
next time? She has had plenty more interviews after this one
