Perhaps one of the most anticipated characters in the new film is Leta Lestrange, played by Zoë Kravitz. Leta’s last name caught our attention in the first film, of course: the Lestrange family don’t exactly have a good reputation if you’ve read the Harry Potter books once or twice.

Only mentioned by name in the first film and appearing in a photograph that Newt just-so-happened to carry around with him, the character is set to take a much more central focus in this film – and will be seen working for the British Ministry of Magic. We also know that she’s engaged to Newt’s brother, Theseus (more on him later), which all seems a little awkward – considering the whole Newt-carrying-her-photo thing.

Whether or not Leta is ‘one of the good guys’ or not remains to be seen, but as Harry Potter fans know all too well, her descendants weren’t exactly a cheery bunch. According to J.K. Rowling, the Lestrange family are one of the ‘Sacred Twenty-Eight’ – a directory of ‘pure-blood’ families across the wizarding world. As is common with all pure-blood families, they tend to come with their fair share of Dark wizards and witches, and if anyone dares to try and romantically link with someone non-magical, Muggle-born or even half-blood, it doesn’t tend to go down well.
