This installment is set in the 1930s and expected to globe trot from Hogwarts to Rio de Janeiro, tracking the growing tensions between Dumbledore and Grindelwald. But with the stakes so high, how long can Dumbledore remain on the sidelines? Unable to stop him alone, he entrusts Magizoologist Newt Scamander to lead an intrepid team of wizards, witches and one brave Muggle baker on a dangerous mission, where they encounter old and new beasts and clash with Grindelwald's growing legion of followers.
Professor Albus Dumbledore knows the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald is moving to seize control of the wizarding world.
