Fan Casting THE SPELL OF PERSEVERANCE (2027)

In the early 1990s, Joanne Rowling, a struggling single mother in Edinburgh, battles poverty, unemployment, and depression while raising her infant daughter, Jessica. Grieving her mother’s death and reeling from a failed marriage, Jo pours her pain into a story about a boy wizard, writing Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in local cafés. Facing rejection from twelve twelve publishers, self-doubt, and financial strain, she perseveres, typing drafts on a manual typewriter. In 1996, Bloomsbury offers a modest advance, and agent Christopher Little, champions her vision. By 1997, the book’s book is published, sparking the start of a phenomenon. The biopic captures Jo’s raw resilience and the birth of magic from hardship.
