Go behind-the-scenes of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

A brand new “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” featurette has been released taking us behind-the-scenes on the set of the film.

David Yates is directing from Rowling’s screenplay. Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Ezra Miller, Colin Farrell, Dan Fogler and Samantha Morton star.

“Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” opens on November 18, 2016.

Eccentric magizoologist Newt Scamander (Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne) comes to New York (for a reason we won’t disclose) with his trusty weathered case. This case is one of those way-way-way-bigger-on-the-inside magical devices, and within are expansive habitats for a collection of rare and endangered magical creatures from Newt’s travels around globe. He discovers the American wizarding community is fearfully hiding from Muggles (who are called “No-Maj” in the States, more on that here) and the threat of public exposure is an even graver concern than in the UK (remember the Salem witch trials?). Fantastic Beasts is the story of what happens when this uniquely skilled English wizard travels to wiz-phobic America and a variety of his creatures, some quite dangerous … get out of their case.
