In "Harry Potter" universe, Patronus is an animal-shaped apparation which is conjured using a spell named Expecto Patronum. The apparation serves as a wizard's protector and is able to defeat the likes of evil Dementors or Lethifolds. Considering that Newt has a huge interest in magical animals, the shape of his Patronus will seemingly become one of the most intriguing issues in the "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" movie series.
"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2" is currently in pre-production, with its story reportedly being set in the U.K. and Paris. Rowling will again write the script and the movie is set to be released sometime in 2018. The first movie followed the adventure of Newt in 1920s America and grossed $807.6 million worldwide as well as nabbed an Oscar for Best Costume Design.
Recently, Jude Law was announced to play young Albus Dumbledore in "Fantastic Beast 2". The movie will also bring back Johnny Depp, who portrays evil wizard Gellert Ginderwald.
