Warner Bros. Pictures has released the official announcement trailer and poster for the much-anticipated adventure FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM.  The trailer gives audiences the first glimpse at a never-before-seen part of the wizarding world created by J.K. Rowling.

Academy Award winner Eddie Redmayne (THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING) stars in the central role of wizarding world magizoologist Newt Scamander, under the direction of David Yates, who helmed the last four HARRY POTTER blockbusters.

Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them

FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM opens in 1926 as Newt Scamander has just completed a global excursion to find and document an extraordinary array of magical creatures.  Arriving in New York for a brief stopover, he might have come and gone without incident…were it not for a No-Maj (American for Muggle) named Jacob, a misplaced magical case, and the escape of some of Newt’s fantastic beasts, which could spell trouble for both the wizarding and No-Maj worlds.
