JK Rowling responds as Harry Potter is arrested for crack possession

JK Rowling has hinted at a much darker and more sinister ending for Harry Potter, after responding to reports Harry Potter has been arrested for crack cocaine possession.

And, as anyone who has read all the books or watched all the films will know, the tale ends with Harry graduating from Hogwarts, getting married, becoming a father and getting a great job. But who knows how different things could have been?

The mugshot was shared alongside the caption, "I have questions," and Rowling was quick to respond to the post herself.

The author, who famously penned the magical novels, suggested bearing the weight of being 'the chosen one' could have resulted in the infamous wizard taking a very different turn.

She wrote: "Never said it was easy being the chosen one."

Of course, it's all just a bit of a laugh, but we can't be the only ones thinking this would've made for a much more interesting ending to the franchise.

Luckily it seemed like lots of other Harry Potter fans were in agreement, with one jokingly replying: "Harry Potter and Five Years for Possession."

Another fan added: "Now we have a story for a third day of the Cursed Child," while a third wrote: "Child actors always have problems."

Safe to say there is no drug possession involved, though.

And, if you fancy spending your Bank Holiday weekend binge-watching every film from start to finish, you might want to get started now, as it'll take you 19 hours and 39 minutes to get through all eight movies without a break.

It has to be done, really, doesn't it?
