It’s not often that one gets the chance to pick the brain of the person who brought Harry Potter into the world. Ahead of the next installment of the Fantastic Beasts film franchise, the prolific J.K. Rowling gives us a few hints about what’s to come.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Heading into Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, what do we need to know about the title character?
J.K. ROWLING: The first mention of Grindelwald is in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, so he has been part of the canon from the beginning. He was a very famous dark wizard whom Dumbledore defeated in 1945, a wizard who once owned the Elder Wand (as Voldemort did later). Although he remained rather mysterious in the Potter books, I had a very clear understanding of who Grindelwald was and what his story had been. Grindelwald is essential to an understanding of how Dumbledore became Dumbledore.

What has it been like writing dialogue for a younger version of Dumbledore?
It is no secret that Dumbledore is my favorite character in the Potter stories, so it was an absolute joy to have an opportunity to write dialogue for him again. He’s a fascinating character on so many levels.
How much of the three planned upcoming Beasts films do you have mapped out?
As with the Harry Potter books, it is all mapped out. In fact, when we announced the five films, I talked about that. It’s always possible that some details will change along the way, but the arc of the story is there. It’s been an amazing opportunity to tell parts of the backstory that never made it into the original books. I’m thinking particularly of one character that I think fans will be surprised to meet in this movie.

We’ve been told each Beasts film is set in a different city. Can you reveal one of the cities from one of the future movies?
It’s far too early to spoil anything. What I can say is that we’ll go to at least one new city in the next film, possibly two, and I’m keen to move outside Europe and North America. But you’ll just have to wait and see.

J.K. Rowling: Grindelwald is mentioned for the very first time in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, so he was a character who was there from the beginning. So it was the beast that was in the back of my mind for 10 years.

In this story particularly the battle between light and dark is a very interesting way of phrasing what's going on because it is precisely our human drive to simplify and divide everyone into black hats and white hats, but always seeing themselves as the good guys.

Can't give too much away, but you stumble across quite a few people and places and things that you will recognize from the Potter books.

In a few weeks, we'll start TCOG promotions and we'll see more new pics of JKR once again.

I'm ready for that...

Me too. This month is almost over too.
