 Eddie Redmayne and Hannah Bagshawe attended the European premiere of ‘Fantastic Beasts And
Where To Find Them’ at Odeon Leicester Square on November 15, 2016 in London, England.

 

 

"One of the things I loved about this script is that it stands alone as its own thing...

whether you're a Potter fan, or you've never seen a Potter film before.

Sometimes with franchises I feel like the first film can...it's all about setup 

for the future, whereas this is a complete and whole film." (E.R.)

 
"By the end of this movie I think it's very clear to the audience...
where this story is going to go and how dark it's going to get.
So, although I hope they'll always be fun movies, because
there's so much fun to be had in this world. Yeah, I'm dealing
with some dark themes." (J.K. Rowling)

"I felt like I had very little in common with Newt, but there were qualities in his character I aspired to.
Like, I'm a massive worrier, and there's a line in this film in which he describes one of the other
characters 'That worrying means you suffer twice', and so it's become my mantra." (E.R.)

"The Potter films and the books were such an extraordinary phenomenon. But I just
love that world, and I hope that people will be pleased to dive back into it." (E.R.)
