J.K. Rowling kicks off the promotional tour of Fantastic Beasts with The Today Show appearance
By Callum Gunn
The promotional tour for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is officially starting next week. J.K. Rowling kicks it off with an appearance on The Today Show.
We’ve all eagerly waited for Fantastic Beasts 2 since the first movie ended, but the promotional tour is only just getting started. It all kicks off tomorrow, with J.K. Rowling sitting front and center as the genius mind should. She’ll be on The Today Show, sharing all she can able The Crimes of Grindelwald.
There’s very little information about Rowling’s appearance on Sept. 24. It’s going to take place somewhere between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. Broadway World has it down as the first in the list of guests during this two-hour slot, so it could be the first one of the morning.

It’s the official start of the promotion for the movie. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald will continue the story of the dark wizard. The second of five movies, there are plenty of questions that fans need answering during the movie. One of those is why Albus Dumbledore is in the Defense the Dark Arts classroom when he was the Transfiguration Professor before being headmaster (we have our theories, but a confirmation would be good).
