Magic in North America is the series that are going to inspire the new movies? And, if it's a book, the animation shown is just to make the book for interesting?

Magic in North America is the series that are going to inspire the new movies? And, if it's a book, the animation shown is just to make the book for interesting? In the universe of HP... "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" is a famous and classic book/encyclopedia of magical creatures written by a british Magic Zoologist and wizard, Newt Sacamander. Newt became extremely famous wizard for being the sole person to discover and study hundreds of species of magical creatures all over the world.. It's considered required reading for all Hogwarts students. JK Rowling decided to write a screenplay adapting this book that exists in the HP world (and she even published a condensed version of it for charity in 2000) and make it a film trilogy (screenplay by: JK Rowling herself). (Here's the entire Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them JK Rowling released to read in FULL and free PDF format): http://d2.d.yun.hjfile.cn/files/201405/%E6%B2%AA%E6%B1%9F%E8%82%B2%E5%84%BF%E7%BD%91_J.K._Rowling_-_Fantastic_Beasts_and_Where_to_Find_Them_20140530113147938_784.pdf?_upd=true The FBWTFT film trilogy (from what we know so far) is about Newt Scamander venturing to New York City, USA in 1920's to continue his unprecedented world wide journey of discovering unknown magical creatures to capture and study. He keeps all the hundreds of creatures and their habitats he's found so far in his magical briefcase Somehow the briefcase is accidentally opened and releases all of the creatures upon the city of NYC and now Newt must quickly find and re-capture the escaped creatures before they wreak havoc on city and expose the wizarding world to muggles or "nomag" (american word for non-magical people). Newt is also facing legal turmoil with the Magical Congress of the United States of America (american wizarding goverment) and could potentially be a criminal if he isn't able to catch them all in time. The trilogy will be introducing what the American wizarding world is like. JK Rowling has decided to expand the HP universe even further past her Fantastic Beasts films by writing a new collection of short stories about the history of Magic in North America and release them on Pottermore (JK Rowling's own mega site for potter fans), which is what this trailer was the official announcement for. The most important thing to understand the new movies, stories, books, etc.... Is that everything relates back to the fact that JK Rowling wants to expand the reader's frame of reference / knowledge map of the wizarding world from the UK to the US. Almost nothing is known about the US wizarding world, the entire HP books might have 2 sentences about it. It's a brilliant way to breathe new life into the series without harming the other series.

However it does take place in America so I'm sure something will overlap. to answer @Versace the North American "book" will be a series of short stories on the potter more site. They've already talked about the other wizarding schools in the world which was also really interesting to read! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
