According to an announcement today by J.K. Rowling and Warner Bros., the wizarding world is going to make another appearance on the big screen. A short article on USA Today's website details the announcement. J.K. Rowling will be making her screenwriting debut to pen the script for an upcoming film based on the Harry Potter textbook Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. The film is to be the first in a new series of films.

The story will follow the book's author Newt Scamander and will be neither a prequel nor a sequel to the Harry Potter films. The story will take place in the same wizarding world containing muggles and witches/wizards, but will occur some 70 years before Harry Potter's time.
