We're not going to lie. We've been missing the world of Harry Potter since The Deathly Hallows was released in 2011. So when we learned that a prequel was in the works, our inner Potterhead was too happy about the whole thing.
Fast forward to this year, it has been reported that the adorable Academy Award-winner Eddie Redmayne is starring in the movie adaptation of J.K. Rowling's Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, an encyclopedia about magical creatures, as Newt Scamander. Yesterday, Warner Bros. released the title card for the movie via Entertainment Weekly. Today, they're giving us a few photos from the set showing Eddie as Newt—FINALLY—because the actor is on the cover of this week's issue.
