| | Evanna Lynch: "Snape is good...there is no question."
In a new interview with the New York Post, Evanna Lynch discusses many things including her first meeting with JK Rowling, getting to role of Luna Lovegood, and her other plot theories for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, including the most controversial: Is Snape good or evil.
According to Evanna, Snape is good. Quote:
Q: So, what's your opinion? Is Snape good or bad?
A: Good, good, there is no question in my opinion. I have too much faith in Dumbledore to believe he is bad. I think it would destroy the character of Dumbledore and that would be too tragic to think about. I don't like Snape as a person but I believe he is with the good guys. I think he feels responsible for Lily's death because he told Voldy part of the prophecy without realizing it was about her. And when he found out it was his fault he was completely wracked with guilt and by confessing to Dunbledore and agreeing to help the good side and ultimately Harry, Snape hopes to be able to earn Lily's forgiveness so that he can rest in peace. I also noticed that while Snape was killing Dumbledore, there was hatred blazing in his eyes, and that makes me wonder even if he was killing Dumbledore for Voldemort and not on Dumbledore's orders. There would be no reason for Snape to hate him. Voldemort could, but Dumbledore has never had any relations with Snape that should make him hate him. I don't think it was a mistake that earlier in the book at the cave when Harry is force feeding Dumbledore the potion it is written that Harry was "hating himself" for doing it. Snape was just hating himself for having to kill Dumbledore. He knew it was for the greater good but it still pained him to do it. One could argue that if it was for good intent Snape would not have been able to kill him but I think he channeled the self hatred (there is a lot of self hatred there, poor old Snape) into the curse, and viola, he killed Dumbledore. That's just a little thing, but it contributes to the overall belief: Snape is good.

Professor Severus Snape is completely, wholly on the good side. I trust him implicitly, and in a fight I'd completely want him at my side. :heart: |

I think it's more complicated than that - after all, most if not all the characters in HP don't fall into categories of "good" and "evil" - there are several layers of grey area. However, I do believe he killed Dumbledore for the right reasons, and that there's more to him than we already know - particularly concerning Lily and his motivations for joining the Order. I also believe Dumbledore would have needed more than an apology to be able to trust him - possibly an unbreakable vow.

I was just re reading the book and read that part, but still it seems as though he hated Dumbledore beacuse Snape lokks at Harry afterwards with the same look of hatred he used before killing Dumbledore. It's a nice though ,but I still think Snapes evil
