According to the LA Times, JK Rowling was asked to be a part of the Oscars but couldn’t due to time restrictions.
The pair even wanted ” Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling and “Twilight” scribe Stephenie Meyer to present the adapted screenplay category, but Rowling was unavailable because of scheduling conflicts and Meyer, who is a Mormon, does not work on Sundays.

Jason Isaacs recently talked to MTV about the end of the Harry Potter series and how he doesn’t get to keep his wig (that is horrible!)
“I personally have finished my bit on ‘Potter,'” he said. “I’m looking for any excuse to go back, pretend I left things in my trailer, that kind of thing.” “It’s been nearly 10 years for me. It was very difficult saying goodbye to the entire thing,” he said. He’s keeping his spirits high though, joking about one of his most personal partings in letting go. Mostly saying goodbye to the wig was a very emotional experience,” he said, deadpan. “I don’t get to keep the wig. I don’t know, it might be on a traveling exhibit. I think it’s got a very good agent who’s got some more work lined up.”
Turning serious again, Isaacs described how he’s feeling about seeing those final films hit theaters. “I’m [both] dreading and looking forward to when it says ‘The End’ because it’s the end of a decade of an amazing experience for all of us.”
