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?
- Synopsis
Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore is an original screenplay written by J.K. Rowling and Steve Kloves. It was published on July 19, 2022, three months after the film's release, and includes special features, such as behind-the-scenes commentary and companion content.
-
Steve Kloves, original screenwriter of all the Harry Potter movies except for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), makes his return to the writer's seat after ten years. He was brought on to help J.K. Rowling.
Scenes were meant to be shot in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It was changed to an alternative location (Bhutan) because of the pandemic. The Bhutan scene still has a short clip from Rio, however.
Oliver Masucci dubbed himself for the German version.
Johnny Depp filmed one scene before he was asked to depart. According to various media reports, because of his "pay or play" contract, he received his full $16 million salary.
