It was previously thought that the upcoming Harry Potter spin-off, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, wasn’t all that linked to the story of the Boy-Who-Lived.
Turns out Fantastic Beasts and the Harry Potter series could share more than first thought.
Speaking at the first post-previews Harry Potter and the Cursed Child performance, author JK Rowling hinted the spin-off is more of a preview to the main series.
When asked by the BBC’s Lizo Mzimba whether Harry Potter’s story will continue in other media, Rowling said: “Well it is, because of course I’m doing Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.”
