What is Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore about?

In the film, Eddie Redmayne returns as Newt Scamander, the wizarding world’s foremost expert in every kind of magical animal (just call him the the Hippogriff Whisperer). He’s joined by Jude Law, who stars as a young Albus Dumbledore, as well as Alison Sudol as Queenie and Katherine Waterston as Tina. The group teams up to defeat the dark magic of their rival Gellert Grindelwald. (In previous films, Johnny Depp had portrayed Grindelwald, but as a result of his ongoing legal battles, he’s been replaced by Mads Mikkelsen.)
