It’s always kind of a bummer when a franchise has to recast, especially if it’s a sudden change.
But Mikkelsen just compared his version to Depp’s and gives us a little sneak peek of what we can expect to see.
Where Grindelwald of the Fantastic Beasts franchise is concerned, though, the loss of Johnny Depp is softened just a little by the casting of the fantastic Mads Mikkelsen as his replacement.
The actor has a unique fan base of his very own from the many franchises he has been a part of, and it won’t be too long until we can see how Mikkelsen’s version of Grindelwald stacks up to the one we know from Depp.
