Harry Potter

Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy in the 'Harry Potter' films, posted a photo with co-stars Emma Watson and Matthew Lewis.

The sequel to ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them’ got an official title today and cast photo, featuring the first photo of Jude Law as Dumbledore.

It’s the inevitable question money-minded executives must ask when an original movie musical starts to gain traction with the general public: “So,” he asks, bitten-down cigar chomped between his teeth, “we taking this thing to Broadway or what?”

Thanks to a partnership between Nintendo and Universal Parks and Resorts, themed lands and attractions based on the iconic gaming company's most popular games are in the works.

Last night was opening night in theaters for the new movie "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".  This was the much anticipated film to dive you right back into the world of "Harry Potter". "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" was written by original "Harry Potter" author J.K. R...

How do you make a successful Harry Potter prequel without Harry Potter? J.K. Rowling’s new spinoff, Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, travels back nearly 70 years to 1926 before the events of the first Potter movie to tell a whole new story in a new setting with (almost) all new characters. Reviving the magical universe from the second biggest franchise of all time is a pretty risky move, but Fantastic Beasts does a good job of blending the familiar with the new.

The rumors are true: not only will Johnny Depp have a role in the upcoming Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, as well as being cast in the sequel, the mystery character he’s playing is none other than Gellert Grindelwald, Albus Dumbledore’s friend/crush-turned-sworn-enemy back when both wizards were young and full of ambition.

No scandal can keep an actor down for long, as is the case with Johnny Depp, who has signed on to co-star in the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them sequel (which will be the second in the five-film franchise). But that’s not all — apparently, he also has a very small role in the first installment, coming out this November.

UPDATE (11/4): #ElevenIsBack. Cast member Finn Wolfhard (who plays Mike Wheeler) just posted a photo of the Stranger Things cast in production mode for Season 2 — and yes, Millie's sitting in the middle. Check it out: ORIGINAL POST: As anyone who went out this Halloween weekend to find a cavalcade of Eleven and Barb costumes, Netflix's Stranger Things remains one of the biggest pop culture obsess

Whatever the reason behind late-in-the-game Stranger Things mashups, we’re hard-pressed to deny some of the skill involved. Following Buffy and Charlie Brown combinations, Netflix’s surprise summer hit gets a magical Harry Potter mashup, as Eleven and her friends take a trip to Hogwarts.

Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory may be a world of pure imagination where the sky is the limit and anything is possible, but it’s hard to say the same about major studios, which keep returning to the same well of established franchises (including board games and toys) to cash-in on name recognition — why risk millions on an original, inventive idea when they can just repurpose a tried-and-true classic? Such is the case with good ol’ Willy Wonka, who is returning to the big screen in a new prequel film from the producer of the Harry Potter series.
