Fantastic beasts

Many people know I am obsessed with Harry Potter. This is nothing new. Fantastic beasts is also nothing new. There is a large misunderstanding in the fandom that Fantastic Beasts will feature the main characters we love. This is not true. The first movie will take place in 1920's New York. All 3 movies will follow magizoologist Newt Scamander as he works on writing "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them." J.K. Rowling recently tweeted an anagram that ended up being the first line of a synopsis of the first movie. "Newt Scamander only meant to stay in New York for a few hours."

Personally, I've known it was a trilogy since they announced they were making it, but I did not know the dates. When you are as involved in the fandom as I am at this point, you tend to find things out pretty quickly. It also doesn't help that I go to a Harry Potter convention every year. Harry Potter is how I met some of my best friends, most of whom I only get to see once a year at this convention.

I'm not all that worried, especially since Jo is writing the screenplays. Evanna Lynch has said that she wants to be in the movies if at all possible. Technically, it could happen since Luna married Newt's Great-Great grandson.



In Diagon Alley in Florida, there's sneak peaks of creatures in the movie, if you know where to look.
