If this follows a similar production schedule to The Hobbit which I suspect it will we could be seeing a cast and director announcement this year through to Spring with Summer shooting.
Yesterday i'ìm trying to make a new fan poster abiut #FantasticBeastsMOVIE and I make the official billing block where i put alfonso cuaron as director! AMAZING I'm a oracle.
I will not quit relating Cuaron to HP. It's actually probable he will be hired again considering he recently worked with Heyman on Gravity. Your claims that he got off from GOF because PoA exhausted him is not correct.
I nearly orgasmed before I even finished reading the title. "Alfonso Cuaron and Fantastic Beasts" was all I needed. :P I really hope he's actually directing
In a new interview from a Spanish publication, Cuarón confirms he has no interest in directing 'Fantastic Beasts.' I translated the excerpt myself:
“It was a very beautiful experience for me. I love that universe and I admire J.K. Rowling tremendously, but right now I'm not interested in projects that are based around a lot of visual effects. I've just finished a 5-year process of VFX making and now I want to kind of clean myself a little bit from that."
I know you guys will be disappointed but I'm kinda glad tbh. Mine is an unpopular opinion, but if it's not Yates again (which I HIGHLY doubt he'd agree to another Potter) I'd rather have a new director.
No wonder. Cuaron is someone who takes a lot of time to do something. It took 4 years to make Gravity. And he just came out from a failed TV show. I found more likely to have Cuaron doing the Shining prequel. Personally, I don't want Yates. He deserves better than being stuck in a franchise with a fandom full of ungrateful people.
I would like a new director who can make his own mark.

Same here (and I am so happy I am not the only one ). I would rather see Cuarón as The Shining prequel director...
And I would rather see Cuarón tackle something new, of his own creation, than The Shining prequel (which does not seem promising for me) or Fantastic Beasts. Prisoner of Azkaban was really good, but Children of Men and Gravity are masterpieces.

Get a sneak peek at Fantastic Beasts:Fans know that the world of Harry Potter will return to the screen when J. K. Rowling adapts her book, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," as a movie. If you are wondering what the mythical creatures might look like, head to the Magical Menagerie shop in Diagon Alley and peer up at the overhead shelves. Gilmore says that some of the strange looking animals represent the first time that the beasts have been visualized. "It will give visitors a peek at the next wave of Harry Potter."
I am sort of hoping for Colombus to come back. A certain magical quality left the series with his departure I think it was the clothing and the thematic scores. The books always make a point of telling the reader how differently the Wizarding world dressed, when Jany Temime came in to do the costumes the Wizarding world clothing looked too normal.
Chris seems to be doing a sequel to Mrs. Doubtfire as well so I guess we can rule him out his schedule would probably be too busy given the 2016 release date. I just hope we don't end up with Mike Newell.
I usually skip it in marathons it's my least favourite of the movies, although the maze and resurrection scene were nice and Voldemort looked his most frightening in GOF so it's somewhat redeemable. I guess if we knew more about the tone of the film it would be easier to think of candidates for Voldemort.
Do you think this movie is going to feature a young Elphias Doge? Didn't he travel to America in the 1920s to search for dragons. He could easily be included as a sidekick.
The BBC's article about the Harrogate event includes a small quote about 'Fantastic Beasts:'
Rowling is also currently working on her first film script, for Harry Potter spin-off Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
"It's been challenging, it's been fascinating, it has been a lot of fun," she said of script-writing. "But as fun as it's been, my first love is definitely novels."
I'm worried she won't want to write the sequels and will hand that out to someone else.
She is referring to it in past tense so that must meant he script is done. The Warner Bros. Comic con panel is in an hour and a half I wish we would atleast see a title card for this like we did with Batman V Superman but I doubt that will happen. Perhaps next year or in 2016 we could see the Potterverse make a big presence at the con other than fan panels.

It's so exciting to think about the prospect of American wizards. I honestly can't fathom how awesome that is going to be.

I asked the festival people and they told me the audio of the whole event will be released to download in the following days. I look forward to that.
