Why Fantastic Beasts Don't Explicly Confirm That Dumbledore Is Gay.

However, the film qutn never explicly stat that Alb is gay. The Harry Potter TV Seri Can Portray Dumbledore As Openly Gay. When lookg at the qutn "is Dumbledore gay?, " there is a new chance to answer .

This uld also allow to portray Dumbledore as openly gay om the start and not have to hi his sexualy to ter to a more fay-iendly prentatn, as the Fantastic Beasts movi did. This is not to say that the new prentatn has to be explic or tense, as Rowlg lled , but n show that Dumbledore is gay whout any need for ambiguy.
