Warner Bros. Adapting ‛Harry Potter’ Spinoff ‛Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them’ as Movie Trilogy
Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara confirms plans to adapt ‛Harry Potter’ author J.K. Rowling’s ‛Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ as a film trilogy.
The main character will be a “magizoologist” named Newt Scamander.
The stories, neither prequels or sequels, will start in New York about seven decades before the arrival of Mr. Potter and his pals.
Diehard Potter fans will know that Fantastic Beasts is a 54-page reproduction of a fictional Magizoology textbook from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry written by Newton Artemis Fido “Newt” Scamander.
The book is required reading for first-year students, despite the fact that Care of Magical Creatures is not taught until their third year.
The textbook is apparently a useful encyclopedia for the Dark creatures studied in the Defence Against the Dark Arts courses.
According to Rowling, Fantastic Beasts would not exist without Tsujihara’s influence. The author stated:
“When I say he made ‛Fantastic Beasts’ happen, it isn’t P.R.-speak but the literal truth. We had one dinner, a follow-up telephone call, and then I got out the rough draft that I’d thought was going to be an interesting bit of memorabilia for my kids and started rewriting!”
