Halloween may still be over a month away, but Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) dressed as Wonder Woman to announce the newest selection for her book club, Our Shared Shelf.

Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley) was also in the Halloween spirit, visiting Universal Studios Hollywood to enjoy Halloween Horror Nights.
Ezra Miller (Credence Barebone), Eddie Redmayne (Newt Scamander), and Zoë Kravitz (Leta Lestrange) took to Twitter to celebrate the new baby Niffler plush toys.
