J.K. Rowling's latest "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" will be hitting the theaters in IMAX 4K Laser experience. It is equipped with technologies that are capable of projecting a high resolution and sharpness, unparalleled 2D and 3D brightness, and a lengthened color range that will allow filmmakers to present more vivid and exotic colors than ever before.

IMAX president of EMEA, Andrew Cripps confirmed that "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" is one of the movies that will be featured in the new IMAX along with about ten other upcoming movies.

While Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne is creating another Oscar award buzz for his latest movie "The Danish Girl," he has recently expressed that he is pressured in taking the role of Newt Scamander. After the huge success of the "Harry Potter" movie series, Redmayne believes that the wagers are high and that he needs to do well. Regardless, Redmayne pronounces that it is a great privilege for him to be chosen for the film. As he puts it, it is the "most wondrous gift."

Despite the interviews that Redmayne and his co-star Katherine Waterston have been given, details regarding the plot and other information about the movie has been kept for secrecy. Redmayne himself did not receive the script until he signed the contract. In an interview for "Steve Jobs," Waterston said the only thing she can offer to spill is that her bob hairstyle is meant for the film. Laughing, she responded that she always think that snipers are everywhere and she is afraid that she will get shot in the head if she accidentally reveals a detail she is not supposed to.

Waterston stars opposite Redmayne who plays the lead role Scamander. Tina or Porpentina is a witch who works her magic in America. She then meets magizoologist Scamander in his stop in New York city. Tina and Newt Scamander get married in the long run and moves back to the U.K. together.

"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" is another of J.K. Rowling's novel adapted to film. It is set 70 years before the adventures in the Harry Potter series. The upcoming film is also set both in the UK and New York, with indigenous magic and tribes also playing a huge role. The film is slated to be released on November 18, 2016.
