The title and release date for the Fantastic Beasts sequel

The Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them sequel has a title and release date. But not everyone is very excited about it.

The new title for the sequel to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is interesting. Not because we love this character but rather because it tells us exactly what we’re about to be in for. Our fears are confirmed and it seems as if the sequel is going to focus heavily on Grindelwald. Titled The Crimes of Grindelwald, the movie is set to premiere a year from today.

So it is nice that we will, once again, have a November release for a Fantastic Beasts film but really? We’re going to focus it all on Gellert Grindelwald? For many fans, we wanted more for our favorite characters.

We were introduced to Newt and Tina, Queenie and Jacob and we wanted more of them. Instead, it is shifting to Grindelwald and Dumbledore. Which is fine, we’re glad to see Dumbledore at the forefront once more.

But honestly I could do without Grindelwald.

You know who was a surprising face in the poster though? Credence. It seems as if Ezra Miller is back and we’re extremely excited about it. Coming straight of a performance as Barry Allen, the world is buzzing with excitement for Ezra and his career so we’re happy to see him shining.

But is everyone excited about this title and idea? Not really. But we have to keep an open mind. This series surprised us with the first go around so who knows! Maybe we’ll love this sequel and everything it brings to us.

Next: They got rid of Kevin Spacey, so what if they did that with Johnny Depp?

It is setting up some amazing storylines so we’ll just have to wait and see what comes of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them: The Crimes of Grindelwald. Check back here on Wizards and Whatnot for more news and information as we get closer to the release date.
