JK wrote her own screenplay too this time. Her messages are ecological, also I think there's a child abuse / anger theme. (Steve Kloves is a producer.) Grindelwald - there's a name redolent of Grimms.
Eddie Redmayne as infectiously pleasing as usual; rest of casting choices unusual for such a big budget (no doubt the first in a planned series): Katherine Waterston (
Inherent Vice), Dan Fogler and Alison Sudol, with Ezra Miller, Colin Farrell, Samantha Morton, Jon Voight, Carmen Ejogo, Ron Perlman, Johnny Depp and (fleetingly) Gemma Chan.
From the Potter series - Yates' regular editor Mark Day, Stuart Craig production design. Philippe Rousselot on camera, James Newton Howard's music not up to scratch. And where to start with the creation of the Fantastic Beasts themselves (great sound design too - particularly liked the deep bass of the big rhino-type thing).
