First Trailer For Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them Arrives Next Week

Check out the announcement for the trailer here.

Something wicked this way comes. Tuesday 15th December sees the release of the first trailer for Harry Potter spinoff Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them. The anticipated movie boasts the not-inconsiderable cast of Eddie Redmayne (in the lead role of Newt Scamander), Katherine Waterston, Dan Fogler, Ezra Miller, Samantha Morton, Jon Voight, Ron Perlman and Colin Farrell. Now usually I hate announcement trailers, or teasers of trailers, but in this case... yeah. I still hate them. Take a look at the super boring "video" below.Here's hoping the actual trailer is a tad more exciting. Whilst the Harry Potter franchise wasn't really my cup of tea, you can't argue with $7.7 billion in global box office takings. I reckon it's been enough time since Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 took a bow in 2011 for people to be ready to dip a toe back into the 'Wizarding World of JK Rowling'. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is released on 18 November 2016.
