Which Characters J.K.Rowling Had Wanted to Kill (Informational)
Chapter 4
We never got over Dobby‘s, Fred Weasley’s, Hedwig’s, Lupin’s, and Tonk’s deaths, but we have been lucky because J.K.Rowling wanted to kill more characters. Let’s see them!
RON WEASLEY
Ron survived from Harry Potter story, married Hermione, had two children together, and found a job at the Ministry of Magic with Harry. Of course, all this happened because Rowling in the course of the story, while from the beginning she was planning to "kill" one of the trio she decided not to deprive the fans of their favorite red-haired hero.
ARTHUR WEASLEY
One of the most dramatic moments in the book Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix was related to a Harry nightmare where a snake attacked Ron's father. When Harry woke up, he was sure Arthur Weasley was injured and was already being treated in St. Mungo’s. Rowling had said: "If there's one character I could not part with, it is Arthur Weasley. Mr. Weasley survives a snake bite. I think the reason for this was that there were few good fathers in the book. In fact, you could say that the best father in the book as a whole was Arthur Weasley. " He later clarified that he had left Arthur to survive because at the same time he had decided to "kill" Remus, stating in a relevant tweet: "Arthur lived, so Lupin had to die. Sorry. I did not enjoy it. The only time my publisher saw me cry was for Teddy's fate. "
HARRY POTTER
Tz.K. Rowling thought seriously about "killing" Harry and fortunately eventually rejected that thought, although Potter's death would give the series a "cleaner and tidier end".
ALL THE PARENTS
Dumbledore, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin, the paternal figures Harry had acquired in his lifetime, died, but Weasley, the people Harry first felt belonged to, survived. Rowling revealed that she wanted to "kill" everyone's parents and adults in general, so that there was a match for what happened at the beginning of the story with little Harry, further emphasizing Lord Voldemort's wickedness.
