The big screen HARRY POTTER franchise started 20 years ago, and Wizarding World fans have been anxiously waiting for the second sequel to FANTASTIC BEASTS series… and now that wait is almost over. Warner Bros. has released the trailer for FANTASTIC BEASTS: THE SECRETS OF DUMBLEDORE, which probably would have hit sooner if not for that pesky Covid. One of the big items of note is the recasting of Gellert Grindelwald, previously played by Johnny Depp, and now played by Mads Mikkelsen (Hannibal). The cast also includes (of course) Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Dan Fogler, Alison Sudol, Ezra Miller, and Jude Law. Check out the trailer below and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
Professor Albus Dumbledore knows the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald is moving to seize control of the wizarding world. Unable to stop him alone, he entrusts Magizoologist Newt Scamander to lead an intrepid team of wizards, witches and one brave Muggle baker on a dangerous mission, where they encounter old and new beasts and clash with Grindelwald’s growing legion of followers. But with the stakes so high, how long can Dumbledore remain on the sidelines?
