We’ve been waiting years, and “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” is nearly upon us! Details about the second film are beginning to leak out, but there’s still plenty of mystery left about the first movie as well. Luckily, we have J.K. Rowling to help clarify some things for us.
The new “Fantastic Beasts” character posters have got us bursting with questions! What did Tina do to get demoted? Why have Newt and Jacob been accused of robbing a bank? Most importantly, why is there a Deathly Hallows necklace in Graves’s poster?
Hosts Eleanor, Megan, and Shannen are here with a special guest, “SpeakBeasty” listener Allie, for Episode 21! Tune in as we discuss the new information revealed in interviews with the cast of “Fantastic Beasts” and whether or not Harry Houdini was a wizard. Catch us at New York Comic Con this October!
It may seem like decades since we last saw a “Harry Potter” film, but with the release of “Fantastic Beasts” growing closer with every passing day, Funko has unveiled a range of Funko Pop! Vinyls of the main characters. Take a look here to see all the figures you’ll be breaking into Gringotts to steal Galleons for!
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.
It’s fitting that the star of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is the first of our cast interviews for the day. When Redmayne enters the room, he is, to our delight, dressed in his Scamander garb – the outfit first debuted on the cover of Entertainment Weekly that has doubtlessly already launched a thousand cosplays.
Passing through security to get into Leavesden Studios is like crossing a border, since calls are made and your identity checked and re-checked before you’re allowed through. It’s no wonder – beyond this inconspicuous guard stand lies the stronghold of secrets literally millions of fans are desperate to know, for only a few yards away, just out of sight, are the sets where “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” is being filmed.
