10 Movie Spoilers For 2018 That We Already Know

This Potter sequel-to-a-prequel is the planned second installment of five (!) for the Fantastic Beasts franchise. In the first film, we were given a whiz-bang twist that resulted in the realization that Colin Farrell had been Johnny Depp's not-so-beloved Gellert Grindelwald the whole time. In the end, he was taken away and imprisoned by the MACUSA wizards.

But, what with his name being in the title and all, it looks as though Grindelwald is set to return in a big way. The first and only officially released photo of the cast featured the dark wizard himself, as well as Jude Law's young Albus Dumbledore.

This is all especially of note when considering a quote from J.K. Rowling herself, made just last year.

"I always thought of Dumbledore as gay . . . Dumbledore fell in love with Grindelwald, and that added to his horror when Grindelwald showed himself to be what he was. To an extent, do we say it excused Dumbledore a little more because falling in love can blind us to an extent? But, he met someone as brilliant as he was, and rather like Bellatrix he was very drawn to this brilliant person, and horribly, terribly let down by him. Yeah, that's how I always saw Dumbledore."

She goes on to elaborate that they grew up as boyhood mates, only for things to grow more serious, so there is a great chance that they've already fallen in love, and had their falling out by the time we meet them in this film.

Nevertheless, this means that we will be getting a look at the first openly homosexual wizarding love story, between the ultimate do-gooder and the new big bad.
