"I'm so honored to work with Eddie. He's just a humble, lovely guy and a really...a brilliant actor to watch, a brilliant actor to work with....you know, fantastic."

About the film, secracy and Newt's character: "...The film was actually codenamed 'Boswell' for a long time... when I first got book for it I didn't even know what it was. That's how secretive they were. It's difficult to say exactly what his character is ... he's very very clever... He heads up a few unfortunate things happened to him, and it's just...it really is... I hate to say it, but could it be  more magical than Harry Potter. I think it is... the way it's crafted. It's had so much finesse. It's just beautiful. Really. Every frame is beautiful. It's gonna be a wonderful piece, I can't wait. I can't wait! I'm so excited."
