WB Summons First Fantastic Beasts

Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them took us back to the early days of the Wizarding World before Voldemort rose to power and The Boy Who Lived challenged his villainy.

War is coming to the Wizarding World.

Pottermore posted a handy guide to the new Wizarding World logo, which features an interactive graphic sharing more about each featured wand, representing nine witches and wizards who made a huge difference to the stories of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts.

Needless to say, it has kicked off a series of conflicts across the world, as Grindelwald emerges from the shadows to terrorize the wizarding community with his awful hair once again. But Grindelwald isn't the only one to return from hiding: Credence (Ezra Miller) the Obscurus who almost destroyed NY, is back.

However, Newt's trip gets put on the back-burner when the eponymous dark wizard escapes custody - having been arrested by the Magical Congress of the United States of America (MACUSA) in the first film - and Newt is called on by his former teacher Albus Dumbledore to help bring the villain to justice. They're joined by Claudia Kim, Zoe Kravitz, Callum Turner, with Jude Law as Dumbledore and Johnny Depp as the titular Grindelwald. Out to stop him are magical zoologist Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne), teaming up with his old Hogwarts professor, a brown-haired Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law), who was actually friends with Grindelwald when the two were younger.

Eddie Redmayne will reprise his role as Newt Scamander, while Katherine Waterston, Dan Fogler and Alison Sudol are also all returning.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is being directed by David Yates, from a screenplay by J.K. Rowling, and produced by David Heyman, J.K. Rowling, Steve Kloves and Lionel Wigram.
