Actor Ezra Miller has been reportedly cast in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. The We Need to Talk About Kevin actor is allegedly being lined up to play a male supporting lead in Warner Bros’ Harry Potter spin-off.
Reports suggest he will either play Kredan, a character with magical powers who encounters protagonist Newt Scamander when he stops in New York, or Jacob, a secondary lead to Redmayne.
The details about the character aren't confirmed yet but its been rumored that he could be a villain or arch rival to Scamander.
Based on a 42-page textbook set for Hogwarts pupils published in 2001, Fantastic Beasts follows the adventures of Scamander, the author of the book, who dedicates his life to the search for magical creatures in an “extension” of Potter's fantastical world.
Eddie Redmayne and Katherine Waterston have already been cast as the other lead characters.
