Then again, I'd be somewhat surprised if they didn't consult her on a few story/world elements and pay a consultation fee for that, but again that would be a flat fee not linked to actual sales.

See there's PLENTY of mental gymnastics available for enjoying the Wizarding World created by JK Rowling whilst still believing her to be an avatar of pure hatred, Marsh.


I'd be very surprised if those sold rights didn't come with at least an agreed percentage of royalties given how valuable the franchise is.
