But there isn’t a steadfast plotline that needs to be properly adapted, or a narrative that needs to be married to in order to please fans.
The book on which Fantastic Beasts is loosely based is more of just a textbook, or a guide, to magical creatures that exist in the universe.
The beauty about Fantastic Beasts is that JK Rowling and director David Yates — who helmed the last few chapters of the Harry Potter series — aren’t married to existing books.
Holy heck, that is a LOT of Newt Scamander and his Wizarding world.
