The Rosiers are one of the “Sacred Twenty-Eight” families, related to the Malfoys, Blacks, and Lestranges. Several of its members were Death Eaters

Theseus is Newt’s older brother, and Head of the Auror Office at the Ministry of Magic. The Ministry is at Hogwarts to find out Newt’s whereabouts from Dumbledore, who at the time is Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts

The Travers family is one of the “Sacred Twenty-Eight” families. At least one of its members was one of Voldemort’s most important Death Eaters. He later escaped from Azkaban and fought in many battles, including the Battle of Hogwarts

Quick notes:

We’re back in Hogwarts!!! 

Also back in London! And Paris!! AND New York!!!

Newt’s brother Theseus and co-Aurors visits Dumbledore to ask about Newt

Newt is the “only one who can defeat Grindelwald” – where have we heard that before?

Someone uses a Put-Outer, potentially the same one Dumbledore bestows upon Ron

The new official WIZARDING WORLD logo (™ & © Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.)

The WIZARDING WORLD™ of J.K. Rowling gets an official logo, indicating the franchise consisting of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts is only set to keep growing!

The new logo is an open book (for obvious reasons) and the W in Wizarding contains a lighting bolt. 

The book’s pages are actually 9 wands, belonging to the main HP & FB characters. From left to right: Voldemort’s, Ron’s, Hermione’s, Harry’s, Dumbledore’s (the Elder Wand), Newt’s, Tina’s, Queenie’s, & Grindelwald’s (the wand he possessed before claiming the Elder Wand).

THOUGHTS?!  Does this mean the Wizarding World will be growing even faster and bigger? How do we feel about Voldemort’s and Grindelwald’s wands being included in the logo?

The Maledictus & Astoria Malfoy

Harry: Scorpius.

Draco: We were capable of having children, but Astoria was frail. A blood malediction, a serious one. An ancestor was cursed … it showed up in her. You know how these thing can resurface after generations …

(Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Act Four, Scene Four)

Is there a possible connection between the Maledictus played by Claudia Kim in The Crimes of Grindelwald and Astoria Malfoy’s blood malediction?!

Reasons why my money’s on yes for now:

I don't know if you recall a certain theory you had about Queenie in Fantastic Beasts 2... I didn't think that it would happen, but after that clip I am inclined to believe that you were right.

I am glad you’re getting on board anon!!! I was about to make a post about this actually.

For those who don’t know, the anon is referring to this theory I posted a while back about Queenie being tempted by Grindelwald and being the one (of the core four) that distances herself from the ones they care about when ‘we will [get to] see love and loyalties tested in this tumultuous time in the wizarding world’.

And I definitely support it more than ever. Let’s take a look.

Dumbledore inspects everyone but his attention remains on Grindelwald. Grindelwald is just chilling and not bothering with anyone else. The Maledictus lingers on Credence. Tina and Newt are shyly looking at each-other. Theseus and Leta are looking at each-other directly and in a communicative way. 

And then there is Jacob and Queenie. They are the only canon couple the parties of which are not looking at each-other. Queenie’s core is closer to Grindelwald and she slowly turns toward him and looks at his face. Some bits later Jacob’s head turns too. I am not sure how this will play out, but I am more sure than ever that we are going to see Queenie supporting Grindelwald for a while.

Reasons why my money’s on yes for now:

Jo worked on Cursed Child and the Fantastic Beats screenplays at the same time

Fantastic Beasts takes place “generations” before Astoria’s time

The Maledictus’s name hasn’t been been revealed; she might be a Greengrass, Astoria’s maiden name

The only thing we know about Maledicti is that they suffer “from a ‘blood curse’ that turns them into a beast” (Pottermore here). The continual use of words like blood and malediction seems like more than a coincidence
