Brand New Fantastic Beasts Trailer Dials Into Olympics Magic

Witchcraft In America!

It seems the Olympics is being used as a sort of cheaper, extended Superbowl for trailers. We've seen a Doctor Strange Olympics trailer, one for Disney's Moana, another for Rogue One and now there's a new Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find them trailer from Warner Bros too.

The new trailer for Fantastic Beasts is more like a TV spot at under a minute, but there's a little new footage in there, and another look at some of the beasties and their impact on New York.

There's still very much a Harry Potter feel to proceedings (of course), with Eddie Redmayne's Newt Scamander presented as a sort of amalgamation of Harry, Ron and Hermione, and there's more in this spot of antagonist Percival Graves. The aesthetic too looks gorgeous, and while there's not really a great deal of new stuff, it's all cut very well so it feels new at least.
