MuggleNet Visits the Set of “Fantastic Beasts”!

Readers of MuggleNet, we must admit to you today that we’ve been keeping a secret from you – a rather big one. We’ve wanted to tell you for a long time, but as Secret Keepers for Warner Bros., we knew we had to wait until the time was right. Today, it finally is. Last December, along with several other online news outlets, MuggleNet visited the set of “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” at Leavesden Studios in London. What we saw there was amazing, and we want to share it with you.

“Fantastic Beasts” Set Visit Interview: Colin Farrell

Of the central cast, Colin Farrell is the one I have the most trouble reconciling into the “Potter” universe. Even as he walks into the room for our interview, even though I knew he was coming, I am still mildly surprised – what does this movie star have to do with “Harry Potter” and “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them”? Like so many things about this new franchise, he’ll take some getting used to, but soon enough I’m sure, it will be hard not to think of him as a part of this world.

“Fantastic Beasts” Set Visit Interview: Katherine Waterston

It’s Katherine Waterston’s day off, but she’s gamely come out to speak with us at Leavesden anyway. Waterston has thought a lot about her character Tina Goldstein and her place in the magical world, and it’s immediately apparent that she’s just the type of person in whom fans want to rest their hopes for the future of Rowling’s cinematic world. I have the feeling she won’t let us down.

Magical Creatures Glimpsed on the Set of “Fantastic Beasts”

One of the most exciting parts of the set visit was getting a chance to glimpse a few of the creatures that will be appearing in “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them”. While I’m sure this is far from a complete list, it’s fun to begin to imagine what kind of chaos these magical animals will be causing in 1920s New York.

“Fantastic Beasts” Set Visit Interview: Production Designer Stuart Craig

From the costumes to the sets to the meticulous magical detail that goes into creating each scene, it’s impossible to deny that the wizarding world looks good. Really good. Much of that can be credited to Stuart Craig, who has served as production designer on all eight “Harry Potter” films and now, the “Fantastic Beasts” trilogy.

“Fantastic Beasts” Set Visit Interview: Producer David Heyman

When you think of the “Harry Potter” films, there are a lot of names that come to mind – J.K. Rowling, Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson probably topping the list. But while Rowling created the world, and our Harry, Ron, and Hermione trio imbued it with life onscreen, it is another person who is responsible for ushering “Harry Potter” to the big screen, and that person is David Heyman.

“Fantastic Beasts” Set Visit Interview: Dan Fogler

Dan Fogler comes straight from set when it’s time for our interview, having just finished filming the last scenes of “Fantastic Beasts” that will be shot today, which means he’s still in costume as No-Maj Jacob Kowalski. Fogler makes an excellent diplomat for the non-magical community, cheerfully sharing with a mix of earnestness and humor what information he can about his character.
