It seems like much longer than just 48 hours since J.K. Rowling dropped a bomb on the Harry Potter fandom and announced that she was writing the screenplay(s) for a new film series based in the wizarding world. MuggleNet responded immediately and within six hours had over three hours of very different discussion on the news.
You may have noticed that some Potter related news broke this week. BIG NEWS! But how did Twitter react? At first, quite calmly. It seemed the old Potter cast were as bemused as the...
The Harry Potter fandom is BACK AGAIN in full swing, but it’s not just about the movies or the books… it’s about the fandom and doing what is right, not easy! It’s time to join the Harry Potter Alliance and their new fight for Equality for the Win and fight against world suck!
In her own remarkable way, J.K. Rowling seems to have found one realm of her wizarding world that remains relatively untouched by the fan community. We scoured the internet to find fan fiction about the famous magizoologist and came up with only a few examples (although that’s sure to change over the next few months!).

We posted a few weeks ago about some of Matt Lewis’s charity endeavors, including his participation in the Great North Run on September 15 to benefit the Leeds Rugby Foundation, of which he is vice president. With his race now just a couple of days away, Matt has been interviewed by the Yorkshire Evening Post about his preparation for the race.
When asked about the possibilities of using the original Potter film sets at Leavesdon Studios for the future films, Tsujihara simply stated that “the look and feel will be very similar” as of the original Potter movies. However according to Rowling herself the story is “neither a prequel nor a sequel to the Harry Potter series but an extension of the wizarding world.” And with the beginning of the film set in New York 70 years before Harry even knows about Hogwarts, there certainly will be some differences.
Today we got incredibly exciting news: J.K. Rowling is penning a new film from her Harry Potter universe, based on Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. We couldn’t resist the chance to talk about the news! Listen in as Kat, Caleb, Eric, and Laura talk all about the new movie.
Earlier today, J.K. Rowling made our hearts really, really happy with the announcement that Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them will be adapted into a new film. Immediately, we can start speculating on what might show up in the film, and in due time, we will hit just about everything we can think of. But we first want to start off with the topic that makes good ‘ole Newt famous in the first place – MAGICAL CREATURES!
