At Warner Bros’ global fan event for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them today, the studio made a big announcement: There will be five Fantastic Beasts films total, instead of the trilogy, as originally thought.

The Mary Sue and HitFix provided live updates, rounding up a couple of key points about the growing movie franchise:

Albus Dumbledore “features a little bit in a wonderful scene” between Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) and Percival Graves (Colin Farrell), according to director David Yates.

Gellert Grindelwald, Dumbledore’s former friend (and object of his affection) turned dark wizard, will have a bigger part in these movies than previously expected: He’s “sort of in the background [of Fantastic Beasts],” Yates says, “and he’s going to become a much more prominent part of the stories going forward.”
