Fantastic Beasts 2: Nagini REVEALED in dark final trailer for The Crimes of Grindelwald

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is out later this year and follows the hugely successful Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, which was a box office smash back in 2016 as it went further back into the Harry Potter universe.

The new trailer appears to confirm the involvement of Nagini, the Maledictus, who of course goes on to become Voldemort’s final Horcrux. Watch above.

At the end of the first film, the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald (Johnny Depp) was captured by MACUSA (Magical Congress of the United States of America), with the help of Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne).

But Grindelwald has escaped custody and has set about gathering followers, most unsuspecting of his true agenda: to raise pure-blood wizards up to rule over all non-magical beings.

Attempting to thwart Grindelwald’s plans are Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law) and his former student Newt, who agrees to help, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead.

Other stars on the bill include Katherine Waterston, Dan Fogler, Alison Sudol, Ezra Miller, Zoë Kravitz, Callum Turner, Claudia Kim, William Nadylam, Kevin Guthrie, Carmen Ejogo and Poppy Corby-Tuech.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald was directed by David Yates, from a screenplay by J.K. Rowling, and is out on November 16.
