NBCUniversal owns the rights to the HP IP, they bought the IP outright. J.K. Rowling can still make things in the world and confirm or deny lore stuff, but she doesn’t own any of it anymore. She, as far as I know, only gets royalties from sales of the books and the movies at this point, and - again as far as I know - isn’t getting royalties from new things made with the IP. The IP has essentially been stripped from her.
Oh thanks for the answer ! I really have to learn about intellectual property in the US. Seen from here in Europe (in France) this kind of things seems otherworldly !

Hopefully, all intellectual property will be scooped up by gigantic corporations who can manage it for the benefit of all.
