11 Images That Will Restore Your Faith In Upcoming Movies

10. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes Of Grindelwald

Why We're Worried: Considering that the first Fantastic Beasts wasn't exactly a home-run and concluded in unintentionally hilarious fashion when Johnny Depp was revealed to be the real villain for the next five movies, was it really sensible to have anything beyond middling expectations for this hastily-assembled conveyor-belt sequel?

Why This Image Rocks: Though Depp is going to be an undeniable problem moving forward, at least the sequel will be elevated substantially by Jude Law playing a young Albus Dumbledore.

The casting sounded great on paper, and now the few images we've actually seen of Law playing the part look absolutely splendid.

Law is at once dashingly handsome and still vaguely reminiscent of the legend he will eventually become, and considering his evident acting chops, he's likely to be the movie's saving grace, even if the rest of it is pure generic franchise nonsense.
