Adam Driver Should be Severus Snape

The Issue

HBO & Jk Rowling are creating a new Harry Potter series. HBO has stated they are committed to staying true to the original books. However, in an obvious effort to meet some ridiculous DEI quota, have decided to  cast Paapa Essiedu as Severus Snape. One of the most complex and important characters in these stories. This is a ridiculous choice when there is a much better alternative in Adam Driver, who bears a remarkable resemblance to Alan Richtman who played Severus in the original movies. We are asking HBO to stick to their commitment to stay true to the books and cast Adam Driver as Severus Snape.
