FANTASTIC BEASTS: THE CRIMES OF GRINDELWALD Updates

[Jack's Wench]

This is exciting news!

I wonder if he has any feelings one way or another about working so closely with someone who just co-starred with Amber Heard (The Danish Girl).

I don't think her role in that movie can be considered as a co-star since she appeared very briefly in the film, few seconds with Eddie. So I don't think Johnny and Eddie would have any hard feelings towards each other. Seeing backstage pics when Johnny attened those Danish Girl event, he seemed to get along well with Eddie, and they seemed to spend more time with each other than Eddie and Amber.

Grindelwald is a character mentioned in the Potter stories but was not part of them being from a different era

From the trailer, Johnny?

Never read Happy Potter and only saw halve of the first movie, never been interested in it. I just saw the trailer to this, it has some good actors, I will give it a try for Johnny.

I watched the trailer but didn't see the screen cap that is supposed to be the above

It's in this IMAX fan event featurette, close to the end.

I am enormously excited about this! Love the Potter books and movies -- we just got done looking at the lot of them again last weekend. So to find out that Johnny will come on board as a terrible villain I love it. Just the best thing that could happen (for me and, of course, for Johnny

Not sure what Amber being in a film with Eddie Redmayne would have with regard to how Johnny gets on with Eddie Redmayne. The way most films are made actors tend not to spend time with each other off screen and may only see certain actors for the scenes they are in together and often not until they do that scene.
I was surprised that they even went to the Premieres of The Danish Girl since Amber was not a major character but I just assume it was because she likes to be seen.

Thanks Theresa for that featurette. I did wonder if Johnny was in that bit where the trailer was showing the sign saying Squires someone with blonde hair was walking around its base.

No, I don't think, that just because two people have been in the same movie it necessarily mean, that they are now best friends forever afterwards. The fact that Johnny usually becomes friends with the people working in his movies probably says more about him and his sweet way of being than about the Hollywood norm for that
That said, I don't know anything about Redmayne and Heard's feelings for each other or lack of same

This movie does present another problem for Johnny though. Although he might not care much or worry about that himself.
I have seen several people online protesting, that a man - Johnny in this case - who has been accused of wife abuse should not be in a movie presumably made for children ... Their argument being, that JK Rowling's books are clearly against bullying.
The old adage; innocent until proven guilty (and in a court of law, I would add) is clearly unfashionable among some of the online commentators

There are alot of ignorant people out there who do not know the facts but only read headlines. Social media has good points but on the whole its a bad thing

[magicmoment]

Actually, it isn't that 'lots'.
Twitter is full of ignorant teenagers who wanna be feminists or SJWs. They believe her since the first day the allegation news came out and don't have any space in their brains for more information or court docs. But if you read many articles on the internet, there are more people who defend him and don't believe her claims. Or they just don't care about his personal life and are glad that he will be in the film.

These ignorant people on Twitter don't really care about Amber Heard, they just wanted to hate something, and Johnny as a rich white male suits their choices for hating.

I haven't seen a single Potter movie. Is Grindelwald a character that's already been established and played by someone else, Oldman perhaps? Or is it a new character that Johnny will be able to establish?

He appeared in a flashbacks and was played by Jamie Campbell Bower (young) & Michael Byrne (old).

Thanks for the reminder, as I said I thought he was just mentioned not shown but I remember now
