About this episode
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
In September of 2013 Harry Potter fans were elated to find out that author J.K. Rowling was working with Warner Brothers on a new chapter in the Harry Potter universe and would be serving as the screenwriter of this new saga set 54 years before Harry Potter was born and starting magizoologist Newt Scamander.
In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by fellow No-Majs Andrea Coffman and Bethany Blanton to talk about Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. We discuss a new beginning, connecting the generations, just a movie, the cast, villains, us vs them, the wizarding world of the USA and our ratings.
