The director, who has already been confirmed to direct Fantastic Beasts 2, also spoke quite highly of Johnny Depp.
Earlier this month, it was confirmed that Johnny Depp has come aboard to play the notorious dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald in a small cameo appearance in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, before returning with a much larger role in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2.
Now that Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them has hit theaters, hopefully we’ll learn more about Fantastic Beasts 2 in the very near future.
The producer revealed that they were looking for an actor with several distinct qualities, and Johnny Depp fit the bill in every way.
