Fantastic Beasts: 10 Potential Harry Potter Spinoffs We'd Rather See
10. Neville Longbottom
I'm going into this entry knowing full well that I am very likely one of the few people who is particularly eager to see a Neville Longbottom spinoff film. But hear me out. Neville is the most noble, painfully awesome character in all of the wizarding world.
He has all of the hero's journey that Harry Potter experienced (arguably more so, because he didn't benefit from the same levels of fame and natural talent), but gets none of the credit. To be totally honest, Neville deserves his own standalone film. I always think of him as sort of the Rosencratz and Guildenstern of Harry Potter, and you know he had some crazy adventures after the Battle of Hogwarts, but before he settled down to become professor of Herbology.
That's what I want to see. Mid-20s Neville exploring the world and finding himself as he fights the forces of darkness. Is part of this out of a desire to see Matt Lewis reprise his role as Neville Longbottom? I can neither confirm nor deny that. But you can't argue that it wouldn't be a great story.
