Fantastic Beasts Adds Zoe Kravitz, Plus New Set Pics

According to The Hollywood Reporter, actress Zoe Kravitz (Mad Max: Fury Road, Dope, The Divergent Series) is a late addition to the cast of Warner Bros. Pictures‘ highly-anticipated Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. She will only have a small part in the first Beasts film, but her character has the potential for a larger role in the David Yates-helmed sequel, which was previously set for a release on November 16. 2018.

Meanwhile, Entertainment Weekly has made Fantastic Beasts the focus of its cover story for the Fall Preview issue and have released five new pics in addition to the cover, all of which you can see in the gallery below!

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them stars Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Alison Sudol, Ezra Miller, Dan Fogler, Colin Farrell, Jenn Murray, Jon Voight, Carmen EjogoGemma Chan and newcomer Faith Wood-Blagrove.

The story opens in 1926 as Newt Scamander has just completed a global excursion to find and document an extraordinary array of magical creatures. Arriving in New York for a brief stopover, he might have come and gone without incident…were it not for a No-Maj (American for Muggle) named Jacob, a misplaced magical case, and the escape of some of Newt’s fantastic beasts, which could spell trouble for both the wizarding and No-Maj worlds.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is being produced by David Heyman, producer of all eight of the blockbuster Harry Potter features; J.K. Rowling; Steve Kloves, who scripted all but one of the Harry Potter films; and Lionel Wigram, who served as an executive producer on the last four installments of the franchise. Rowling herself is supplying the screenplay.

Warner Bros. Pictures has the first Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them set for a worldwide release in 3D and IMAX on November 18, 2016.
