		</div><p>Emma Watson has been viciously accused of exploiting the death of Harry Potter co-star Alan Rickman to further her own “feminist agenda”.</p>
<p>Following news of his death, the actress commemorated him with an image on her Twitter account that featured Alan’s face overlaid with his quotation from March 2015 that expressed his strongly-held feminist beliefs.</p>
<p>Twitter trolls quickly latched on to her tribute and began attacking the actress, who played Hermione Granger opposite Alan’s Severus Snape.</p>
<p>One wrote: “Emma, you are a repugnant human being using his death to push your agenda.”</p>
<p>Another tweeted: “Wow, you’re using the death of your friend to push your agenda. That’s actually horrible.”</p>
<p>One post called Emma’s tribute, “tacky, classless, tactless, disgusting behaviour”.</p>
<p>Another user wrote: “He’s not even cold and you’re using him to fuel the feminist agenda bandwagon? Not impressed.”</p>
<p>Emma has been a long-time target for the anti-feminist community, with attacks ramping up after she became a Goodwill Ambassador for UN Women and advocate for the HeForShe campaign that promotes gender equality.</p>
<p>However, many fans came out in support of the 25-year-old following the backlash.</p>
<p>“He was a feminist, and those were his words, she is just paying tribute, nothing wrong with it,” one wrote.</p>
<p>“Love the @EmWatson tribute to #AlanRickman. She respectfully paid homage to his humanitarian character and feminist ideals they shared,” another commented.</p>
<p>One comforted her, writing: “You shared with the world something wonderful that you and Alan Rickman shared, don’t let others turn his words to hate.”</p>
<p>Emma posted her own tribute to the actor on her Facebook page, which read: “I’m very sad to hear about Alan today. I feel so lucky to have worked and spent time with such a special man and actor. I’ll really miss our conversations. RIP Alan. We love you.”</p>
<p>She stood up to her detractors by continuing to post quotations from the celebrated actor, although no more were about feminism.</p>
<p>Her tribute comes as more members of the Harry Potter cast paid tribute to Alan.</p>
<p>Rupert Grint said he felt “so privileged” to work with him.</p>
<p>“I am devastated to hear about the passing of Alan Rickman. I feel so privileged to have had the opportunity to work with him on numerous occasions. Even though he has gone, I will always hear his voice. My thoughts are with his friends and family at this time,” he said in an official statement.</p>
<p>A story about Rupert and Alan has gone viral since his death, in which Alan revealed he kept an unflattering doodle that Rupert drew of him as Snape and even made him sign it.</p>
<p>Luna Lovegood actress Evanna Lynch also tweeted.</p>
<p>Speaking at the UK premiere of The Revenant, Domhnall Gleeson, who starred as Bill Weasley and whose father Brendan played Alastor “Mad-Eye” Moody, told the Press Association that Rickman’s death was a “huge loss”.</p>
<p>He said: “He was the star of Harry Potter and I really had a cameo. He’ll be greatly missed, in the industry, by people who enjoy films, by people who enjoy theatre. He’s a huge loss, but obviously he’s a bigger loss to his family and friends. There’s nothing I can say that will match up to what they’re feeling.”</p>
