Katherine Waterston to cast spells in Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them
Now that Eddie Redmayne has been officially cast as the globe-trotting, monster-seeking, teakettle-wielding Newt Scamader, Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them has found its second lead with Katherine Waterston. Waterston, who played off Joaquin Phoenix to great acclaim in 2014’s Inherent Vice, will join the magizoologist for the first installment of Fantastic Beasts, which is planned to be a trilogy. Waterston will play the witch Porpentina (Tina for short), and according to Variety, will meet Scamander when he’s in New York City.
