Back when I’ve finished something!” Potter fans have tuned into her twitter page, bustling, messaging and sending various owls in order to decipher more information about the coming project.

The author gives nothing away, aside from a few cryptic messages stating, “Cry, foe! Run amok! Fa awry! My wand won’t tolerate this nonsense.” Fans are left in agonizing curiosity, as to what the anagram means.
The screenplay in question is for the new upcoming film, directed by David Yates, “Fantastic Beasts” is planned to be a trilogy. The story is set 70 years prior to Harry and revolves around the life of a boy named Newt Scamander. It takes place in New York and all things magical will remain the same as it was in the original Harry Potter Series; which could mean just about anything… Will we see an American version of Gringotts or Hogwarts? Will Dumbledore make an appearance dressed like a 1920s mobster? If so, be sure to have some toffee flavored Bertie Botts and Every Flavor Beans on hand for him.
More information has not yet been mentioned. Muggles will simply have to wait until the films releases in November 2016. If only we had a time turner.
