Release Date: 18th November (US / UK) Director: David Yates Starring: Eddie Redmayne, Ezra Miller, Ron Perlman, Colin Farrell Mr. Yates is a very busy boy. Taking the reigns of Potter-lore once again (this will be his fifth film inside the wizarding world), J.K. Rowling's popular spin-off gets the cinematic treatment, and for the very first time, she'll pen the screenplay. Set seventy years prior to the cupboard-under-the-stairs occupant's adventures, Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them documents the experiences of writer Newt Scamander who thrives in New York's secret community of witches and wizards. Originally written in conjunction with Comic Relief, the story is inspired by the fictional textbook of the same name featured in the Harry Potter novels. Starring Redmayne as Scamander, plus a fine support cast in Miller, Perlman, Farrell, Samantha Morton, Gemma Chan, Jon Voight, Katherine Waterson and Dan Fogler, this is set to be a true heavyweight as 2016's campaign begins its closing stages. The Harry Potter franchise is after all one of the largest and most prosperous film empires across the world; it serves as the highest-grossing British output and still turns over millions thanks to wide endorsements, public attractions and record sales of merchandise.
