With the latest instalment in the Fantastic Beasts franchise set to hit theatres early next month, Warner Bros. has debuted the first full clip from The Secrets of Dumbledore.
In this sneak peek, we see Newt Scamader (Eddie Redmayne) and his allies arrive at Hogwarts and make their way to the Room of Requirement, where Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law) is preparing to send them on a very important mission.
Check out the clip below, along with new Screen X and 4DX posters, and let us know if you're looking forward to the movie in the comments.
Professor Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law) knows the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald (Mads Mikkelsen) is moving to seize control of the wizarding world. Unable to stop him alone, he entrusts Magizoologist Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) to lead an intrepid team of wizards, witches and one brave Muggle baker on a dangerous mission, where they encounter old and new beasts and clash with Grindelwald’s growing legion of followers. But with the stakes so high, how long can Dumbledore remain on the sidelines?
Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Dan Fogler, Jude Law and Ezra Miller are all set to reprise their respective roles from the previous instalments, with David Yates back behind the camera. There will be one major casting change, however.
Johnny Depp revealed that he'd been asked to "resign" from his role as the villainous Gellert Grindelwald last year. Though he didn't specify the reason at the time, this came just days after the Pirates of the Caribbean star lost a libel case against British tabloid The Sun, who labelled him a "wife-beater" in a 2019 article.
Shortly after, WB announced that Mads Mikkelsen (Doctor Strange, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) had signed on to replace Depp as the character.
