5 Thoughts We Had On Trailer Of ‘Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets Of Dumbledore’: New Characters, New Creatures, New Grindelwald!

5 Thoughts We Had On Trailer Of ‘Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets Of Dumbledore’: New Characters, New Creatures, New Grindelwald!

On Monday, Warner Bros. released the trailer of Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets Of Dumbledore, the third instalment in the Fantastic Beasts series. The movie is set in the 1930s leading up to the Wizarding World’s involvement in World War II and will see the then Hogwarts professor Albus Dumbledore, played by Jude Law, entrust Newt Scamander, played by Eddie Redmayne, and his friends to embark on a dangerous mission against the dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald—we’ve got Mads Mikkelson replacing Johnny Depp here—and his growing army.

 

The trailer revealed the arrival of new characters and many weird creatures. There’s a lot of action and magic going on in the trailer which may disclose some secrets of Dumbledore. I watched the trailer of Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore and here are my five thoughts on it.

1. In the new fantastic beast film, Eddie Redmayne is leading the cast as Magizoologist Newt Scamander alongside franchise regulars and newbies—Katherine Waterston (Tina Goldstein), Dan Fogler (Jacob Kowalski), Alison Sudol (Queenie Goldstein), Ezra Miller (Credence Barebone), Callum Turner (Theseus Scamander), William Nadylam (Yusuf Kama), Poppy Corby-Tuech (Vinda Rosier), Jessica Williams (Prof. Eulalie “Lally” Hicks), and Jude Law (Prof. Albus Dumbledore). They’re all up against Mads Mikkelsen’s Gellert Grindelwald. 

2. The trailer has a lot of exciting things for the audience. Most importantly, first look at Mads Mikkelsen’s Gellert Grindelwald. In previous films, the role was played by Johnny Depp who quit the series because of his lawsuit with ex-wife Amber Heard. The Grindelwald played by Mikkelsen looks far more wicked and actionable as he plans to declare war on muggles. I am kind of excited to see what Mads brings to this character that was earlier played with its own eccentricities by Depp. Both are brilliant actors!

3. From the trailer, we can see a Muggle getting a magic wand! Dan Fogler’s character Jacob gets a wand from Newt which is given by Dumbledore. I’m telling you, Dumbledore has so many secrets up his sleeve, everything he does may not make sense at first but has a deeper meaning in the grand design of things, as we all know. That’s why I’m excited to watch the film, because it looks like we get to see the defeat of Grindelwald which won Dumbledore the Order Of Merlin, First Class. More importantly, though, we might get to know more about what happened that time between Albus,  his sister Ariana, and Grindelwald that killed Ariana.

4. The funniest part of the trailer is the weird creatures we can see in it, especially Newt dancing with the creatures which look like lobsters. We can also see a creature who looks like a plant which reminds me of the screaming plants from the Harry Potter film and there is also a dangerous creature that may harm Newt and his friends.

5. The trailer gave me nostalgia when it showed the grand dining hall from the first Harry Potter film. It gives a glimpse of 1930s Hogwarts which looks classic. We can also see Albus Dumbledore as a Hogwarts professor and giving points to the Hufflepuff house, you know some things never change!

Everything being said, the trailer is quite exciting, I’m also looking forward to seeing Mikkelsen playing Grindelwald. Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets Of Dumbledore is set to release in theatres on April 15, 2022. Until then, Draco Dormiens Nunquam Titillandus!
