In addition to a handful of full-length trailers and a bunch of photos of the cast in character, Warner Bros. We might have to wait until November for the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them sequel - Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald - to hit theaters, but thankfully the studio has blessed us with plenty of magical distractions to keep us busy.
