Harry Potter fans took Mad-Eye Moody's warnings of "constant vigilance" to heart. So much so that they were dubious about whether J.K. Rowling herself messed up an integral aspect of the canon she created.

When a trailer for the upcoming Fantastic Beasts sequel released, a second-long clip sent the Potter Twitterverse into an absolute frenzy, decrying a perceived plot hole in the most Hermione way possible:

The outcry led to an abundance of theories: Maybe the apparition ban only came in after this time period, which predates the mainstream Potterbooks by several decades. Maybe the events of this movie (about the rise of the OG dark wizard Grindelwald) actually causedthose protection spells to be put in place. Maybe the Ministry of Magic got some special government clearance. OR MAYBE ALL HOPE IS LOST, CANON IS DEAD, AND WE SHOULD ALL JUST GIVE UP.

But like a light in the darkest of times, one hardcore Potter fan -- who also happens to be an actor in the upcoming Fantastic Beastssequel -- has settled this debate once and for all.

"David Yates and Jo [wrote the script]. Who knows more about the Potter universe person than the person who created it? Nobody. Not a single person," she said in response to the controversy.

"So, like, LOL what do you mean?! Don't you think that will addressed in film? Don't you think there was a reason for it? Do you think you know more than she does on this subject?"

Those are some veryilluminating comments from a person who has not only read the script, but has a cameo in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.(And an even bigger role in the movies that follow it.)
