Characters
Several characters from the first two Fantastic Beasts films are set to reprise their role for the third movie, including Eddie Redmayne as Newt Scamander, Jude Law as Albus Dumbledore, Alison Sudol as Queenie Goldstein, Katherine Waterston as Tina Goldstein, Ezra Miller as Credence or Aurelius Dumbledore, and. Dan Fogler as Jacob Kowalski.
Actor and comedian Jessica Williams, who briefly appeared in “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald,” is set to return as Ilvermorny professor Eulalie ‘Lally’ Hicks.
‘Star Wars’ and ‘Hannibal’ star Mads Mikkelsen is set to take over the role of the Dark wizard, Gellert Grindelwald, who was previously played by Johnny Depp.
It was previously known that Warner Bros. Pictures asked Depp to withdraw from his role as Grindelwald following the accusations of domestic violence on his now ex-wife, Amber Heard, which he has denied.
The news of Mikkelsen taking over the antagonist role was revealed in late November last year.
Plot
It seems like we’ll be getting a glimpse of Professor Albus Dumbledore’s secrets. Prior to being the headmaster of Hogwarts in the ‘Harry Potter’ series we all came to know, the professor faced the powerful Dark wizard of earlier times, Gellert Grindelwald. He sought the help of Magizoologist Newt Scamander to lead a brave team of wizards, witches, and one brave Muggle.

But with the stakes so high, how long can Dumbledore remain on the sidelines?”
