Initial thoughts on The Crimes of Grindelwald trailer (trailer included)
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them took the magic of the franchise outside of Hogwarts, and to 1920s New York. The Crimes of Grindelwald looks to take the magic back to Hogwarts, and back to one of Harry Potter fans' favourite professors: Albus Dumbledore.
Played by Jude Law, the young Dumbledore instructs Newt Scramander (Eddie Redmayne) to chase down Grindelwald (Johnny Depp), in a task which even takes Newt to Paris. Just as New York did, old Paris looks beautiful and a perfect scene for a new magical adventure. And, as always, Hogwarts also looks spectacular.
Jacob (Dan Fogler) also returns to aid Newt in his mission, with a vast array of magical creatures too. Although much isn’t provided about the storyline in the trailer, it’s looks perfectly Potter: full of magic and adventure.
The Crimes of Grindelwald will release on November 16. If this has made you yearn for days back at Hogwarts, check out Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery which will release in the Spring!
