'Fantastic Beasts 2': Wizards apparating inside Hogwarts angers 'Harry potter' fans

The first trailer for “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” has been released online, taking Potterheads back to Hogwarts. However, instead of being happy about the new film, “Harry Potter” fans are angry about what seems to be a mistake.

It is not possible to apparate (teleport) inside or within the grounds of Hogwarts. This element was central to the previous “Harry Potter” movies. The protection around the school prevented Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes) and his army from simply popping up inside. However, the upcoming movie seems to have ignored this crucial fact.

The trailer (see below) shows wizards apparating within the grounds of Hogwarts. There is a debate on whether the far end of the bridge forms a part of the school grounds. The wizards may have simply apparated just outside the protective shield. The other possibility is that the movie will show the casting of the protective spell around the school. A shield that even Voldemort found difficult to break.

Jude Law will be playing the role of the young and handsome Dumbledore. He will be seen as a professor in the film, who will finally confront Grindelwald (Johnny Depp), a man he once loved. But the professor will need help in defeating the villain, so he will enlist the help of a former student who bested Grindelwald before.

Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) will be back with his magical creatures. So will his sidekick Jacob Kowalski (Dan Fogler). Kowalski had his memory wiped and was running his own successful bakery at the end of the first film. It will be interesting to see how he will be brought back into the story.

“Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” is set to be released on November 15 in Australia.
