The award-winning actor, who portrays the beloved No-Maj Jacob Kowalski in the Fantastic Beasts films, has been doing some sterling work to take fans behind the scenes of the film for the audio original. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald – Makers, Mysteries and Magic will be released on the same day as the much-anticipated new big-screen adventure – coming to cinema screens on 16 November.
In fact, here’s Dan himself to explain more.
*Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald – Makers, Mysteries and Magic*, written by Hana Walker-Brown and Mark Salisbury, was created from over 100 hours of exclusive interviews with the cast and filmmaking team who have helped to bring screenwriter and producer J.K. Rowling’s new film to life. Some members of the crew and production teams, including the likes of MinaLima, worked across the Harry Potter films too.
From actors Eddie Redmayne and Jude Law, to director David Yates and producer David Heyman, expect to learn all sorts of fascinating new trivia about this latest magical offering from the Wizarding World.
Among oh-so-many things, delve into the construction of a 1927 Parisian set, the influences behind the designs of the film’s many fascinating wands and new insights from the cast on their characters. Dan Fogler talked about being part of this exciting new project.
‘This whole experience has been an adventure for me and I’m really excited for fans to come along for the ride,’ he said. ‘We made an exclusive, all-access audiobook that takes you to places that no microphone has been before. If you’ve ever wanted to know what it takes to make not just an epic movie but one set in the Wizarding World, this is a must-listen! It covers everything from props, costumes, and acting... to wands and Nifflers! I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we’ve enjoyed making it.’
