Fantastic Beasts 2 reveals its official title, release date, synopsis, and young Dumbledore

Alright, fine. It turns out 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Fantastic Beasts 2 won't be called More Fantastic Beasts and Where Else to Find Them. Warner Bros. Entertainment announced today that the film is officially titled Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald and that it's coming out on November 16, 2018. The studio led the announ♍cement with this fun little animated intro graphic, which is also your first good look at Jude Law as a young(er) Albus Dumbledore.

Here's a better look at Young-bledore via official Potter fansite . That corduroy tre𒉰nchcoat must weigh a ton, but no matter; Dumbled🎀ore's always gotta be the most stylish guy in the room and I respect that.
And here's the offic🌃ial synopsis straight from WB:
"Jude Law plays a young Albus Dumbledore, taking on the mantle of one of J.K. Rowling’s most beloved characters; Ezra Miller makes a return as the enigmatic Credence, whose fate was unknown at the end of the first film; Claudia Kim appears as a Maledictus, the carrier of a blood curse that destines her ultimately to transform into a beast; Zoë Kravitz plays Leta Lestrange, who had once been close to Newt Scamander but is now engaged to his brother; Callum Turner joins the cast as Newt’s older brother, Theseus Scamander, a celebrated war hero and the head of the Auror Office at the British Ministry of Magic; Katherine Waterston returns as Tina Goldstein, who has been reinstated as an Auror for MACUSA; Eddie Redmayne stars again as wizarding world Magizoologist Newt Scamander, who has now gained fame in the wizarding world as the author of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them; Dan Fogler reprises the role of the only No-Maj in the group, Jacob Kowalski; Alison Sudol reprises the part of Tina’s free-spirited sister, Queenie Goldstein, a Legilimens who can read minds; and Johnny Depp returns as the powerful dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald in Warner Bros. Pictures’ Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.”
The synopsis doesn't mention this, but we also know Fantasღtic Beasts 2 will include some flashback scenes featuring younger Newt, Dumಌbledore, and other characters. If Harry Potter keeps going deeper into the past like this I'm going to start expecting a Merlin cameo.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me p🍸lay Zelda on the Super Nintendo.
