Alan Rickman practically quit Harry Potter, but transformed his mind after JK Rowling allowed him know Snape's large secret!
Who’s a fan of professor Snape? 🪄❤️

Meeee!!! Oh wait… he bullied children and killed people to join a group of dark wizards and told a dark wizard to go after a baby cuz he had a crush on a woman. As this also explains his loyalty to Dumbledore, I don’t think I left any open doors. Please reply to me what you think!
@Piña Colada 😊 Im not sure you read the books.
@Vicky Sullivan umm lol yes I have I actually think Snape is a better person in the films tho
Jk Rowling : Promise! Will you keep the secret with you only?
Alan: Always ❤️❤️❤️
Love Severus Snape❤️❤️❤️
That’s Alan Rickman
@May04bwu he didn’t abuse children.
That made my day
Snape was Human. It’s not the first or last story of a person loving another, not chosen by them but will still stake some form or another to protect the offspring of the one they love, perhaps begrudgingly…. To err is human
I despised Snape, but the death of Alan still deeply saddens me. He was a gem.
@Louise Florence thank you very much I am pretty awesome
wutttt snape is amazing
@celestialhe isnt good, he isnt bad, he is a gray character.
That is what makes snape the most human, and the most well written, I respect your opinion but snape isnt such a bad person because his good deeds are equally with his bad deeds
And that makes him human
@celestialalso i dont think he is racist anymore
@-DREAMS AT 3AM- yes exactly i like you’re view. everyone thinks he’s so great but for every good thing he’s done, he’s done ten more bad things. and that’s just me judging him on his character alone. not from anyone else in the series. i don’t get the hype, im pretty sure he’s only helping dumbledore because he loved lily, and i think it’s been said that he joined the death eaters on his own account. so I don’t what the hype is about but fans love draco too so who knows. 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Rowling revealed this to him before he signed on. He was wary about being typecast as a villain, so Rowling told him that Snape loved Lily, and he knew that he could take the role because he would ultimately be revealed as a good guy.
@Ben Lovegood I get the same feeling from book snape too
@Duffal0 The Goblet of Fire novel was published in 2000 and the Philosopher’s Stone film was released in 2001. The Order of the Phoenix book wasn’t published until 2003.
@Bob Bobert because the books weren’t all out yet
@Cesar Ramirez it’s so trippy for me to realise there are Harry Potter fans today who didn’t read the books as they came out lol.
I’m not mad about it of course, it’s just so strange to realise I’m old now.
good guy xD
abusing kids for years, daydreaming about girl and friend from highschool that much that he eventually put his life of her kid xad
Alan Rickman was the perfect person for Professor Snape. No one else would have don it and won our hearts ❤️
May his soul rest in peace ❤️
May Alan rest in peace 🙏🙏🙏
Still don’t like Snape because it just showed he protected Harry because of the love he had for Lily but never because he cared for Harry. Snape also joined the death eaters and before he joined with Dumbledore he watched many people like Lily die. So no, Snape is not the best character that’s misunderstood. Snape was a complicated soon revealed depth of a character but not one that’s endearingly good. 👍
Alan was such a great actor!
Wait, he’s dead???
@Joey Debus yes
@Joey Debus since 2016 dawg 😭😭😭
May he rest I peace❤
I couldn’t imagine anyone else playing that role. Literally everyone in the series is irreplaceable.
Dumbledore got replaced once so….
@Ahmed saeed probably not. Since we got atached BECAUSE of the actors I believe that I can indeed recognise when an actor doesn’t quite fit or get the character right you know what I mean?
@Ahmed saeed I think they shouldvr replaced ginny though, no hate towards the actrees but the personality they gave her in the movies was not it. But maybe that was script writers fault 🤷♀️
As someone whose not seem the films, and is now reading the books to my 8 year old daughter, I pictured Matthew Mcfadyen as Snape, Christian Bale as Sirius, and Billy Connolly as Dumbledore! 😂😂
@Arieloa Graenola 1st bc the original actor died after the second movie
Without him, it wouldn’t be the same. He is the only character that looks very much like he is described in the book. And he has a brilliant voice.
@AshtrayAnnie K.
@Equality Forever I was a kid when the first movie came out, my mom knew the movie was coming out so she got me the next book each time she found out there’d be a movie of it. I still think the books were better, but I loved the movies and I still watch them because they consume less time. Who cares which medium you like, most people don’t have time to re-read novels when they work and cook and clean
Fun fact: when JK was righting the first book, if it became a movie, she already wanted Alan Rickman to be Snape. So Alan was the exact description that JK was giving of Snape.
@iloveowls90 some people including me cares about continuity
I loved Alan Rickman. He was such a phenomenal actor. I’m still saddened that he is no longer with us. May he Rest In Peace ❤️
I miss him too 😭😭😭
I hated Snape, but that just means Rickman did a good job at acting as the character, that was the point, we were supposed to dislike him, until he was revealed he had good in him and aided Harry. Snape’s death scene, saying to Harry, you have your mother’s eyes is probably so unexpected to those who didn’t read the books, but really shows he really truly loved Lily.
He was more insuffarable in the books & I hated him because how he was portrayed there. In the movies, he’s a badass. I love his unique take on the character. I also like Michael Gambon’s take on Dumbledore. He may not be the calm man he is in the books, but he’s perfect for when the story gets darker, he’s more imposing & a man of action. Kinda reminds me of Gandalf in a way
i liked snape and that was before any other movie came out
@Gabriella91 and ironically I dislike Gambons Dumbledore because it’s too much like a Gandalf. TBF, I won’t lay all the blame at his feet, i doubt he’s the one who decided Dumbledore should shout “did you put you name in the goblet of fire”. A lot of it is probably the directors choice. But my favourite scenes with Gambon as Dumbledore is when he’s calm and collected.
Edit: a scene that springs to mind is when Dumbledore leave his office in order of the phoenix, he’s absolutely calm the entire time.
@Jonah Thrane let’s be honest though, Richard Harris was the GOAT. If he hadn’t died after the second movie I feel the series would have been a bit better with him in it. Harris embodied his characters. And set an icon too high for Dumbledore that Gambon just could not fill.
@Sean S Richard Harris was the best Dumbledore. Rip.
It’s kinda facinating how in one way Alan and snape had to keep the same secret.
oh shyt
@Le Adiarto Tom Holland did not lol.
😮😮😮🤯
Still can’t believe he passed away 😢
He was one of the best actors in that franchise. No one else can fit that role that he played. Rip to Alan Rickman he was one of the greats.
One of the best actors of all time.
@Phillip Hopkin
Absolutely. I have never seen him give less than 100%, and he was good in so many different kinds of roles, from moustache twirling villains in Die Hard and Robin Hood, to complicated characters like Snape, he was a brilliant Shakespearian actor, and Galaxy Quest showed that he could kill in comedies as well.
If he’s in a movie he’s usually the best one in it
@Cheezy Films Productions may I recommend Dogma. Small role for him but so good.
I so miss Alan Rickman. He was such a wonderful actor and came across as such a humble and beautiful human being.
My heart still aches when isee this kind of thing.
Could tell me what the secret is?…..couldnt understand what they saying in the end
@not king the secret is revealed in the books and in the movies …
Yes. 🥰🥀🌾
@not king
I *think* that the secret is…

…Snape’s devotion to Lily.
💗🤍💗
He was a real life Snape! Holding onto secrets until it was time to disperse it to the world! RIP Rickman.❤️
Alan deserved an Oscar for his voice alone
Snape was always my favorite character, after reading up to Prisoner of Azkaban I knew then and there that there was something more to Snape and Harry’s relationship, after Half Blood Prince I knew that KNEW 100% that Snape’s purpose after Lily’s murder, was to keep Harry safe no matter the cost. He was the unsung hero, and in truth he was the real hero in the end. Without Snape Harry would never have had a chance.
JK: You kept the secret? After all this time?
Alan: Always
He had to make the unbreakable vow to the dark witch queen herself before she trusted him with the secret.
Ngl this comment made me cry lol TT
❤❤❤😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
Nooooooo 😂😂😂😂😂
This comment is too good🤣🤣
I miss him so much. “After all this time?” “Always.”
🥰
Alan was so perfectly cast as Snape, I can’t imagine anyone replacing him if he did quit.
ok but Dan’s impression of Alan’s “I’ll tell you later” 😆
She let him know that Snape was a multidimensional character, more than a simple villain who casts magic or a shady professor, that it was worth to keep working on him for years because of what he could do in those years would affect the entirety of what we thought we knew, so after the final Harry Potter movie, looking back, watching all his scenes again, we could see the truth and how it was all there in front of us this whole time but we couldn’t see it before, his acting would suddenly make sense, and it would change everything. A brilliant character and a brilliant acting, I’m so glad he decided to stay. Rest in Peace Alan Rickman. 🙏🏻💜
