Hollywood has made a lot of films, so it only makes sense they sometimes take inspiration from other sources of media. It's time to discuss book adaptations in this week's Movie Monday!
Warner Brothers has announced that Mads Mikkelsen will replace Johnny Depp in the 'Fantastic Beasts' franchise. Mikkelsen will take over the role of villainous dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald. The movie, due for release on July 15, 2022, is currently in production at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden, near London. Depp was fired from the franchise after losing a libel case where a news outlet labeled him a wife beater.
CNN is reporting that Johnny Depp is stepping down from the 'Fantastic Beasts' franchise. On Friday, Warner Brothers announced Depp will no longer play the villainous dark wizard at the center of the action in the "Harry Potter" prequels. In a statement Depp said he complied with Warner's request to resign from the project. Depp earlier this week lost a libel suit against the publisher of Britain's The Sun newspaper over the publication's claims that he was an abusive husband. Depp's biggest supporter, JK Rowling, had no comment. Rowling has stood by the troubled actor, even as details of heinous of Depp's abuse of actress Amber Heard emerged.
Production on the third film in the 'Fantastic Beasts' franchise has been delayed by Warner Bros. due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Warwick Davis wants to appear in the 'Fantastic Beasts' films, suggesting that he would "love a chance" to dip into that world.
