Fantastic Beasts soared through the box office last year, making a staggering $812.5 million. Following its success, it wasn't long until Warner Brothers decided to give the film a sequel, which is set to be bigger and better. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is now out on DVD for fans to enjoy, but the questions is: Has the sequel even been written yet?

Recently, J.K. Rowling announced to the world that the script for the sequel is finally complete, which means the film's production stage is just around the corner. Being the big Twitter buff she is, Rowling responded to an eager fan's tweet asking if the screenplay for #FantasticBeasts2 was written or not, and her response is presented in the manner you would expect:

Filming for the sequel is reportedly expected to begin this August ahead of its slated release date net year. No other news has been revealed about Fantastic Beasts 2 just yet, except for the announcement that Jude Law will be taking on the role as young Dumbledore.

"My first port of call, I hope, is to meet JK Rowling and to talk exactly about that and find out who he is, and who she wants him to be." — Jude Law

The Latest Teases

Jude Law is just one of the many big names announced for the sequel to guest star alongside Eddie Redmayne. Callum Turner (Glue) will be showing up in the second installment to take on the role as Newt's brother!

With Rowling not being a very revealing woman, she hasn't actually told us about what Newt Scamander's Patronus is. While fans demanded on Twitter that #JKRowling tell us Newt's animal defense against the deadly Dementors, she refused to tell us, as it would be a "big spoiler" for the sequel.

Final Magical Thoughts, For Now...

With Fantastic Beasts 2 ready to wow the audience, it won't be long until we'll all be sat back at our local theaters for those coming jaw-dropping moments, and hopefully more Nifflers to keep us satisfied even more.
