We cannot contain our excitement anymore. The first cast photo of Fantastic Beasts: The Crime Of Grindelwald is out and it has some of our favourite stars playing some very important characters.
A sequel to Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, the film will have Eddie Redmayne reprising his role as Newt Scamander. We are most excited to see Jude Law playing the young Albus Dumbledore in the film. Johnny Depp will play Dumblebore's friend-turned-arch enemy Grindelwald, who’s seen holding the infamous Elder Wand. Depp, in fact, made a fleeting appearance in the first film.

The cast also includes Ezra Miller who plays Credence. Claudia Kim appears as a Maledictus, the carrier of a blood curse that ultimately transforms her into a beast; Zoe Kravitz plays Leta Lestrange, who had once been close to Newt Scamander but is now engaged to his brother; Callum Turner joins the cast as Newt’s older brother, Theseus Scamander who is the Head of the Auror Office at the British Ministry of Magic. And of course, there is Katherine Waterston who plays Tina Goldstein once again the sequel.
The film will be releasing in November 2018 and filming has already begun. For a lot of Potterheads, the Fantastic Beasts series has served as a good way to get back to JK Rowling's magical world.
