The actor couldn't open up on any specific details about his pending battle with Grindelwald, who will be played by Johnny Depp (despite the opposition of some vocal fans who are upset about Depp's casting). So we'll have to reiterate what we already know -- and sit on all of the details that we picked up on our Fantastic Beasts set visit (for now). The plot will resume with Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) becoming a global icon thanks to the publishing of his guide to fantastic beasts. The action will shift from New York City to London and Paris, where Grindelwald may be building an army, putting him on the radar of one concerned Dumbledore.
