Wands at the ready! Warner Bros. revealed earlier today that the final trailer for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald would be released online tomorrow, and ahead of that they've debuted a full batch of new character banners.

The posters spotlight every returning hero and villain along with the new faces, while also giving us brief hints about what to expect from their storylines.

Check 'em out down below, and let us know if you're looking forward to the fantasy adventure sequel in the usual place. Fantastic Beasts 2 is set to hit theaters this November.

To view the posters all at once, simply click on the VIEW LIST (ONE PAGE) button below!

Newt Scamander

<p>At the end of the first film, Newt helped capture the infamous dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald and has now published his famed beasts book. So what&#8217;s the magizoologist in trouble for this time?&nbsp;</p>


At the end of the first film, Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) saved the day when he helped capture infamous dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald. However, it seems the famed magizoologist will be "wanted for questioning" when we catch up with him in the sequel.

Tina Goldstein

<p>The Auror eventually ends up in Paris, and now we know she was apparently sent there by MACUSA on a mysterious assignment&#8230;</p>


We know from the previous trailer that Auror Tina Goldstein (Katherine Waterston) will be heading to Paris for Fantastic Beasts 2, and now it's been revealed that she'll actually be sent there by MACUSA on a mysterious assignment.

Queenie Goldstein

<p>We last saw Queenie and her newfound love Jacob in New York bakery bliss. Where&#8217;s she run off to?&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>


It looks like Tina's sister Queenie (Alison Sudol) is going to be MIA when we return to the Wizarding World, but where could she have run off to?

Jacob Kowalski

<p>Jacob is the rare American muggle (a.k.a. &#8220;No-Maj&#8221;), with full knowledge of the wizarding world. Perhaps that&#8217;s why he&#8217;s &#8220;of interest?&#8221;&nbsp;</p>


Dan Fogler's Jacob Kowalski seemed to have settled down for a baker's life with Queenie at the end of the first movie, but it looks like his friendship with Newt may have dragged him back into the line of fire.

Albus Dumbledore

<p>The film&#8217;s trailer revealed that Dumbledore can&#8217;t move against Grindelwald, that it must be Newt instead. Is this why?&nbsp;</p>


Jude Law debuts as the younger take on Albus Dumbledore. We already know the powerful wizard can't make a move against Grindelwald, and apparently that's because he's being watched very closely.

Creedence Barebone

<p>Troubled&nbsp;Creedence has literally run off the joined the circus as he tries to figure out who he is following years of abuse&#8230;&nbsp;</p>


Ezra Miller's troubled Creedence Barebone narrowly escaped with his life in FBAWTFD, and has now seemingly run off to join the circus to find himself.

Gellert Grindelwald

<p>A rather menacing shot of the nefarious wizard. Have you noticed the Deathly Hallows symbol at the bottom of the posters yet? Hmm&#8230;</p>


Following his brief debut at the end of the first film, Johnny Depp will return to menace our protagonists as the villainous Gellert Grindelwald.

Leta Lestrange

<p>Newt&#8217;s former schoolboy crush with the notorious surname is apparently the object of a prophecy&#8230;&nbsp;</p>


A new character to the franchise, Leta Lestrange (Zoe Kravitz) is is "implicated by prophecy." A reference to her less than well-regarded family name, perhaps?

Theseus Scamander

<p>Newt&#8217;s brother (and Leta&#8217;s finac&eacute;) is a Ministry&nbsp;Auror, so that makes sense&#8230;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>


Finally, we have another new face in Newt’s brother (and Leta’s finacé) Theseus Scamander. Familial ties to our hero aside, this guy definitely looks like a villain! He's played by Callum Turner.

I heard the trailer from Vice should be out tomorrow. Adam McKay said we should expect it any day now.



Also, I’m hyped for this movie.

Haven't seen the first movie.From the trailers of the second some of the cgi designs of the creatures look pretty good.

Awesome!

From my perspective this franchise of 5 movies really can't do any harm - as long as they remain inventive and hold a good overall quality - To me they're just fun and whimsical and also distant enough from the original 8 movies of Harry Potter to not interfere with the characters we know and love. I am a big fan of Jude as Dubblydorf as well, so should be in for a good time

The first one was good in that it didn't do too much fan service to the point where it was distracting

The way they tackle this is how I hope Star Wars is tackled down the line - keep the overall mythos but place the movies at a totally different time so they don't interfere. Whilst I don't hate VIII like others any potential damage to Luke Skywalker's character could've been avoided if this method was taken

They best just lean on Depp, Dan Fogler and Jude Law in this one. Fogler singlehandedly MADE the first movie enjoyable and this franchise needed some A-List Hollywood talent to give it some legs. I have faith this will be enjoyable, but am remaining skeptical after how the first FBAWTFT turned out

@xfan320

Ezra Miller and Colin Farrell were the standouts of the first imo. Redmayne is a good actor - but his character isn’t the most likable - kind of socially awkward, maybe on the spectrum.

Fogler was great, too. And Katherine Waterson...welll I’ll let Champ Kind let you know what I think about her.

@regularmovieguy - yea, Colin Farrell was really good in the first movie as well. Shame he can't come back to the role. Ezra Miller, however, just kinda cried or whined the whole film. I'm sure he'll have more to do this time around though

Film lives or dies on one thing for me, Does Jude Laws Dumbledore have an Irish accent like Richard Harris and Michael Gambon before him, not sure, Continuity. strangely looking forward to this, heard it's very dark.
