Potter-Heads Rise Again: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

If you haven't heard of this news by now, I am sure you will hear about it sooner or later. Here it is: Harry Potter is coming back!... well sort of. Recently, if you have felt small internet earthquakes here and there, don't worry. It's just the Potter-Heads waking up from their sleep and rising up to celebrate the new coming movie, a spin-off of the Potter Franchise: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

The producer of the Harry Potter films David Haymen has confirmed that Rowling and him are working on a brand new Potter spin-off franchise based on Rowling's book 'Fantastic Beast and Where to Find Them'. Rowling is hoping this new series will turn out to be as successful as her Harry Potter series. The time of this film is set 70 years before Harry Potter's time, and it will features many more magical creatures mentioned in the books. Warner Bros. will be producing this film and J.K. Rowling herself is currently working on the screen play and script.

As a Potter fan myself, I am highly anticipating for this film to be released. Even though the Harry Potter cast will likely not to return but I would like to see the franchise live on. I am excited to know more about the magical world that Harry lives in as well as seeing more magical creatures that only appeared in Rowling's book.

If you are a Potter head, this film is definitely for you. However, if you don't have much knowledge of the Harry Potter series or has never read the books, maybe this film wouldn't interest you as much. There is no doubt that Fantastic Beast and Where to Find Them will be a highly anticipated film in the future. Even if you strongly disliked the Harry Potter movies, I would still recommend you to give this movie a try because, well, Harry Potter is NOT part of the story.
