AceShowbiz - "Harry Potter" fans were taken by surprise when Jessie Cave, who famously played Ron Weasley's love interest Lavender Brown, launched a career as a content creator on adult platform. The former child actress has just announced her OnlyFans account.

Unlike the platform's typical explicit content, Jessie's page will focus on her long, blonde hair, appealing to followers with a unique interest.

The 37-year-old actress and mother of four revealed her motivation for launching the account, "I do NICHE HAIR CONTENT which you may well quite like. How magical!"

Jessie teased her audience with promises of "daily owl drops" of new snaps and quipped about her new title, "Former Harry Potter actress, writer, doodler and now Only Fans Long Hair Specialist."

In a candid discussion with her partner, comedian Alfie Brown, on their podcast "Before We Break Up Again," Jessie shared her inspiration. Drawing from Lily Allen's success in selling photos of her feet, Jessie decided to explore this niche to finance her writing.

"It's been quite liberating," she confessed, expressing excitement about stepping outside her usual roles.

Fans have expressed mixed reactions, with some applauding the innovative idea and others showing skepticism. Comedian Katherine Ryan commented, "This is a very very good idea," and other fans echoed sentiments of support, calling her a "Hair queen" and predicting she would "make a fortune."

Meanwhile, the "Harry Potter" universe is buzzing with discussions on the upcoming HBO series adaptations. Recent reports suggest Janet McTeer may step into the shoes of the late Maggie Smith as Professor McGonagall. Also, Paapa Essiedu is said to be nearing a deal to portray Severus Snape, a role originally played by the late Alan Rickman.

However, the casting of American actor John Lithgow as Albus Dumbledore has sparked controversy among fans. Critics argue that the Harry Potter franchise should remain true to its British roots.

"I love John Lithgow," one fan tweeted, "Absolutely bananas they're not hiring a British actor to play Dumbledore." Despite the backlash, Lithgow remains enthusiastic about the role, acknowledging the responsibility that comes with playing such an iconic character.

The new HBO series promises a deeper exploration of the beloved wizarding world, potentially running for up to 10 years. As the magical saga continues to evolve, both Jessie Cave's bold new venture and the unfolding developments in the Harry Potter franchise are certain to keep fans captivated.
