Eddie Redmayne’s magizoologist Newt Scamander is teaming up with Albus Dumbledore, to be played by new franchise entrant Jude Law, in the second installment of Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, which began shooting on Monday. The film’s story traces the journey of Dumbledore, much before he became Headmaster at Hogwarts, and Scamander, who hunt down the most dangerous dark wizard, Gellert Grindelwald (Johnny Depp). Actor Katherine Waterston will reprise the role of Auror Tina Goldstein, Alison Sudol as her sister Queenie Goldstein and Dan Fogler as Jacob Kowalski.
