First Glimpse of Harry Potter Spin-Off Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them

This is our very first glimpse of Harry Potter spin-off movie ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them’.

Well, the first glimpse of its artwork, anyhow, and a few of its foreign market versions too.

It’s not much, but it’s something.

And often, a hotly-anticipated movie’s artwork or poster is released just ahead of a first look at some footage, whether as a teaser or a full-on trailer.

There’s no word on whether that will be happening, though it’s perhaps unlikely, as filming only began on the movie in August on the Warner Bros lot in Leavesden, Hertfordshire.

The action centres around Eddie Redmayne’s Newt Scamander, the famed 'magizoologist’ as referred to in J.K. Rowling’s wizarding series, and is set many years prior to Harry and chums arriving at Hogwarts, Scamander’s alma mater.

Redmayne stars alongside Katherine Waterston as Porpentina Goldstein, Alison Sudol as Queenie Goldstein and Ezra Miller as Credence.

There are also roles for Samantha Morton, Colin Farrel, Jon Voight and Ron Perlman.

Helmed by David Yates, who directed the four final films in the Harry Potter series, it’s due out on November 18, 2016.
