The featurette takes Harry Potter fans behind the scenes of the upcoming spin-off, which stars Eddie Redmayne as Newt Scamander, a British magizoologist who accidentally looses a case full of magical creatures upon 1920s New York City. The video also features a first look at Colin Farrell as the auror Percival Graves, and introduces Newt's ragtag team of helpers: Tina (Katherine Waterston), her sister Queenie (Alison Sudol) and Jacob (Dan Fogler), a war veteran and muggle, or no-maj as they're known in the States.
