JK Rowling Red-Faced Over Hot Pics Of Harry Potter's Neville Longbottom

You can understand a level of maternal instinct from J.K. Rowling towards the young actors who played her characters in the "Harry Potter" movies.

And it was with that in mind that she shifted somewhat uncomfortably on seeing the latest photo shoot starring Matthew Lewis.

As we now know, Lewis has changed somewhat since his days in the "Potter" movies.

He’s gone from the chubby-face Neville Longbottom and morphed into a fully paid-up beefcake/hunk.

Hence the recent shoot for Attitude magazine, then, in which he’s seen sporting little more than his abs and a pair of Armani briefs. Oh, and a nice cardi.

But the sight caused Rowling some consternation, it would seem, as she tweeted:

Lewis responded apologetically:

Rowling, with the last motherly word, advised restraint in future:

Sounds fair. They certainly don’t sell those pants on Diagon Alley. Do they, Neville.
