Eddie Redmayne wants Hagrid in a movie "Fantastic Beasts" and the producers need this to happen

the Harry Potter and Fantastic beasts The universe is big enough for two animal wrestlers, or at least if Eddie Redmayne succeeds. The actor who plays the magizoologist Newt Scamander in the series recently asked OG Harry Potter that he would like to see join the battle against Grindelwald. Although I had personally set my sights on Molly Weasley (Bellatrix Lestrange is still shaking), he chose a character after Scamander's heart. Eddie Redmayne wants Hagrid in a movie and TBH, I'm here for that.

Redmayne and co-star Katherine Waterston were talking to CinemaBlend when the original franchise came into conversation. As it was recently revealed that a younger teacher, McGonagall, would join the crew alongside Jude Law's suave Dumbledore, the actor also said he would also like to see animal whisperer Rubeus Hagrid.

"I secretly hope that at a wonderful time, perhaps if I repeat it often enough to J.K. Rowling, as if a little Hagrid mini could arrive.

I have never thought about the teenager Hagrid in the Fantastic beasts movies before, but now, that's all I can think of. I know we had a flash of him during the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets movie, but in my mind, it would look exactly like an old Shoreditch hipster with a bun and a disgusting beard.

Can anyone see if Jeremy Irvine is doing anything and if he wants to grow beard? If the young Dumbledore can get hot, there is no reason why the teenager Hagrid can not be.

Before I get too carried away by the casting, CinemaBlend did the math and realized that it would be quite difficult for Hagrid to exist in the same universe as the Fantastic beasts movies. Hagrid was expelled in his third year 50 years before the events of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, which was put in 1993.

A third-year student would likely be a Grade 9 child, which means that Hagrid was between 13 and 14 years old in 1928. According to Pottermore, new Fantastic Beasts: The Grindelwald Crimes is in 1927 ("only a few months after Newt's first adventure"), so Hagrid is about 12 years old – a little too young to take part in the fight against black magic. Am I right, Colin Creevey?

That said, there is a chance that he could make an appearance further down the line. J.K. Rowling said Variety that although they initially planned to do Fantastic beasts a trilogy, they decided to do five instead because the bow "extends over nineteen years". This gives Hagrid time to grow up and, hopefully, to stick his head.

So, who knows, maybe we can see Hagrid in a next installment of Fantastic beasts? I would love Newt, with his soft voice, to frame the young Hagrid and put him on the right path.

The next movie will be the second in the franchise and is calling Fantastic Beasts: The Grindelwald Crimes. This will be followed by Fantastic Beasts 3 which is currently scheduled for November 20, 2020 according to Digital Spy but director David Heyman revealed to CinemaBlend that he hopes that "it will be every two years" or "two and a half years" between each outing.

Do not count our chickens – or dragons – before hatching and focus on the payout already in the horizon. Fantastic Beasts: The Grindelwald Crimes will be released in the UK on November 16, 2018.
